What
do you do for a living? Duration?
I write about
music, interview bands and produce recordings of bands we make in our studio. I
have done that (or something along those lines) since I was 15 – literally half
of my life. When I am not doing that, I am studying physics and mathematics at Monash
University.
What
made you choose this role?
What’s this
“choose” you speak of?
Do
you have a website? If so supply link
All of my music
stuff goes here: http://www.noise11.com
I also have a
science blog. Like anybody’s non-professional hobby-blog, it doesn’t get
updated as often as I would like. You can see it here: http://www.particleschmarticle.com
Submit
your favourite photo of yourself and describe why it is your favourite?

Tell
me a bit about yourself.
I like music,
science and craft beer. I also like travelling, but since it is not a perfect
world, I don’t get to indulge in that as much as the other three things. If you
try to talk to me about anything that isn’t one of these, you will probably
think I am a complete moron.
Do
you have a belief you are passionate about?
I believe
science is the key to understanding the world around us and if everyone were
scientifically literate, the world would be a better place.
What
kind of student were you at school?
My entire school
years were spent blowing kisses to the jocks and reading every music magazine I
could get my hands on.
If
you could learn to do something, what would it be?
Let’s assume the
many years I have dedicated to learning physics and maths doesn’t count. I’d
sure like to speak another language. A really cool one too, like Bengali.
What
do you like to do in your spare time, hobbies etc?
I like to walk
out of my front door with my ipod, head in no particular direction and come
home many hours later. If my budget allows, I usually return with a few new
books and records.
What
is your favourite food?
I am not much of
a foodie, but eating Indian food always brings back fond memories of travelling
around the sub-continent.
What
makes you laugh?
Jokes.
What
makes you cry?
Bad jokes.
What
pisses you off?
Few things piss
me off more than a denial of science. “Vaccines kill!” “Evolution isn’t real!”
“My homeopath gave me something to cure my
cancer!” Bah. I’m getting angry just typing this. *calm blue ocean*
What
is your most embarrassing moment?
On my fourth
birthday in kindergarten I had to stand in the middle of a circle formed by my
fellow students while they sung “Happy Birthday” to me. I was so embarrassed
that I tried to hide under the table that the cake was on and the teacher
yelled at me and told me to get out, so I had to stand there and cry tears of
embarrassment while everyone sang at me. THERE. I SAID IT.
If
you could have a super power what would it be and why?
The ability to
know all of the secrets of the universe.
What
chore do you hate doing?
You know how
some people get that horrible shiver down their spine from metal on metal? Or
nails on a chalkboard? Yeah, well the vacuum cleaner does that to me.
If
you could swap your life with someone else who would it be and why?
I am happy with
the life I have, but I wouldn’t mind being Brian Cox just for one documentary
shoot. Have you seen the stuff he gets to do?
What
would you like people to remember about you?
I don’t mind if
people remember me fondly or not, but I would appreciate it if people remembered
me truthfully.
What
do you find attractive about a person?
Great music
taste and a curiosity about the world.
What
is your best feature?
Great music
taste and my curiosity about the world.
What’s
on your bucket list?
That’s a looong
list. I would like to travel to the Middle East… and orchestrate world peace.
What
is the one thing you’d like to achieve in your life?
To finish this
fucking degree.
If
the world was about to come to an end, how would you spend your last hour?
Probably
correcting someone’s grammar. It’s if the world *were* going to come to an end,
by the way. Seriously though, it’s hard to say, but I’m willing to bet it’s
going to involve as many unhealthy vices I can get my hands on.
What’s
your favourite possession?
So many! My
original pressing Primal Scream ‘All
Fall Down’ 7” single. My Custom Shop Stratocaster. Any one of my books. My
motorbike. We’re living in a material world, okay?
Who
is Lorinda Jane?
Someone who I will
never delete from my Facebook account ever again. (Good to hear haha L.J)
