Marcan (38) from Yorkshire, England, Huddersfield
About me
The only people for me are the mad ones. The ones who are mad to love, mad to talk, mad to be saved; the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow Roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars. -:-Jack Kerouac

About me
- Where I liveI live 2 miles outside of Huddersfield.
- Where are you originally from?I was born in West Yorkshire. I have lived in the West Midlands and Shropshire, which I loved, especially the Ironbridge area.
- Do you want to stay there?I have only just moved to my new eco-apartment, resplete with solar panels. I would like to stay here for the time being, but I do hope to travel abroad in the next period. I always dreamed of living in Paris but now I think I would prefer somewhere more rural. I would like to live in Australia, New Zealand or Canada if the right circumstances arose.
- What is your occupation?I occupy myself with writing most days.
- What are your future plans?I hope to continue doing what I love most, which is writing.
Stuff I like
- What are you interests/hobbies?I am deeply interested in literature, art, philosophy and cosmology. I have a keen interest in Art House cinema. I love visiting art galleries and attending poetry readings. I am also interested in the natural sciences.
- MusicMy passions are Classical (everything from plain song in Medieval times to Renaissance music to the Classical period and to Minimalism in the C20) Traditional Indian classical music, Ravi Shankar, Ali Akbar Khan. Irish Folk (a special mention here for Christy Moore) 1960's rock (the west coast psychedelic scene in the US) and folk-rock music (Bob Dylan, Nick Drake, Tim Buckley, Tom Paxton, Roy Harper, Richie Havens, Terry Callier) and Post-rock. There is some great classical music emerging from the former Soviet Union. Look at Arvo Part in particular. I would also just like to give a special mention to the Canadian post-rock groups, Godspeed You Black Emperor! and A Silver Mt Zion Memorial Orchestra And Tra-La-La Band.
- Your fav tv seriesThe Ascent Of Man. The Secret Life Of Paintings. Civilisation. The World About Us. The Blue Planet. Life On Earth. The Sky At Night. I like comedy too, Seinfeld. Cheers. Fraser. Married With Children. Dharma and Greg. Mad About You. The first series of the animation, Family Guy. The Loony Toons. Kojack (who loves ya, baby?). British sit-coms usually leave me cold, notable exceptions are Open All Hours and Only Fools And Horses. However, I must confess, I hardly ever watch television these days. Haven't really seen a lot of telly in the past 5 years. Life is too short to be glued to the box for any length of time.
- Your fav books/authorsI must mention The Sinking Of The Titanic by the German poet, Hans Magnus Enzensberger. The Liverpool Poets, Brian Patten, Roger McGough and Adrian Henri. The Beat Poets, especially Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Allen Ginsberg and Charles Bukowski. The New York School, especially John Ashberry. The English Romantic Poets, Shelley, Byron, Keats. Aimee Cesare, Return To My Native Land. Pablo Neruda, 20 Loves Poems And A Song Of Despair. The list is endless. Contemporary poetry from around the world, notably, Carol Ann Duffy, Lavinia Greenlaw, Paula Meehan, UA Fanthorpe, Sujatta Bhatt, Paul Durcan, Chinua Achebe, Czeslaw Milosz, Miroslav Holub, Leonard Cohen (in particular The Spice Box Of Earth, although I love both of his novels, The Favourite Game and Beautiful Losers). Favourite plays include, Waiting For Godot by Samuel Beckett, Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf by Edward Albee, The Birthday Party by Harold Pinter, Yerma by Lorca, The Inspector General by Nikolai Gogol, The Miser by Molliere, Hamlet, Richard III, King Lear, Midsummer Night's Dream by Shakespeare. I also love short stories and novels (too many to mention here!) Finally, I love children's stories, fairy tales and nursery rhymes.
- What sort of movies do you like?Art House Cinema. French New Wave. Foreign language films. I like the early silent movies too including films by Charlie Chaplin and Laurel and Hardy, Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton.
- Types of people you like?open, kind, generous people, people who are not desirous of material things

My attitude
- Money"I owe much; I have nothing; the rest I leave to the poor." Francois Rebelais
- PoliticsOZYMANDIAS I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: "Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed. And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare, The lone and level sands strech far away. P.B. Shelley
