There is always a leftover after symbolization. I can not say about or re-present myself completely through language. There is even a gap between "I" of the statement (enonce) and "I" of enunciation. Again the crisis of representation still prevails.
... But , Still, I Will Be Talked About Anyway. So Let Me (Re) Present Myself. In Short, I'm a Freelance Academic Whose Field of Interest is in Music/Sound and Culture/ Society. However, I Also View Myself as Artists too Since I Have to Play Guitar and Compose Music in Order to Mentally Survive.
This Make Me Half-Intellectual and Half-Artist.
To Talk About The Latter Half. Musically Speaking, I Favor Metal. However, Ideologically Speaking, I Like Favor Punk. So What I Do Personally is Making Metal Music in The Spirit of Punk.
So, This is it. Actually, My Self-Definition Should Start From Things I Hate, Since Those Determine Me More Than Anything. However, Mention Them All Would Be Too Much & Too Offensive (Actually I Think Being Sincerly Offensive Once in A While is Fine). Here I Do Not Celebrate The Negatively Produced Positivity. It is Something I Have To Accept That It is So No Matter I Like It or Not.

Favorite Movies
Any David Lynch's Movies
Hot Fuzz - ... What's to Say ??? An Extremely Fast, Extremely Parodic, Extremely Funny Action Movie!
Wild Zero - Through Years I Think This Rocker Shooting Zombies is Still Cool !!! An Extremely Cult Favourite
Battlefield Baseball(Battlefield Stadium)
Dr. Strangelove - Extremely Sarcastic
Duck Soup - A Marx Brothers' Classic
Blade - Yeah, That Vampire Movie starring Wesley Snipes ... Only the First One
and some other stupid action movie or cult movie that doesn't increase any intelligence. I also like movies that use lots of parody and create the joke effect to the viewers or readers of the film who were exposed to the particular texts before.
Favorite TV Shows
I don't watch TV
Favorite Books
Noise: The Political Economy of Music by Jacques Attali - An Extremely Inspiring Book for Those Who Hope that Mankind Will Overcome The Current Age That Music Is Somewhat Controlled by Capitalism. Recently, I really feel trembling reading It.
Any books by Slavoj Zizek especially the early ones... I do not like his Works Anymore, but Still I've His influence.
Here, Talking About Zizek without Mentioning Mladen Dolar is Very Improper. Dolar's Work is Awesome even Though He Does Not Publish Much Work (in English???). Try His Book The Voice and Nothing More.
Against Method by Paul K. Feyerabend is also great. This book is also one of my master, Acharn Thanes, favourites.
Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit" is quite unreadble (Both Now and Then, I suppose.), but still worth trying. Not many philosophers have influences from the far left to the far right like him.
Thanes Wongyannava's Works & Lectures also Influence Me A Lot. I'm Glad That Recenly, There's Quite A Number His Work Published, or planned to publish, in book form.
What About to Literatures???
Mmm I Don't Read Much ...but, My Favourite's Still Kafka's short stories and "the trial"
For Thai Author, My Favorite is Still "Ngow See Khaw" or, in english, "The White Shadow" by Dan-Arun Sangthong, a Poor Thai Author Who Only Get The Recognition He Deserved Abroad. Even Though, I'm Quite Disappointed About His Conservative & Spiritual Turn Recently. But, Literacically Speaking, His Works Are Still Worth Reading
Favorite Quote
"The Real is outside the Symbolic order"
OK This Is Early Zizek's Late Lacanian !!! But, You Have to Note That This is Different From The New Age Notion That There is Some Kind of Truth Lies "beyond" The Linguistic Capacity of Men. The Point Here is That The Real is Both Outside and Inside The Symbolic at The Same Time. The Real is Internally External to The Symbolic.
This Means The There is no "Beyond" as Such. The Beyond is simply the By-Product of our Symbolic Order that Will Never Grasp Everything Completely.
And Hegelian Wisdom Told Us To Grasp This Negative By-Product as It Is, Not to Positivize it Like The Pre-Critical Metaphysicians and The New Agers.
I'll Be Occupied by Piles of Works Though This Year.
The Research!!! - First Draft At The End of August
