- they/them
Wilde | 28 | Ace | Musician | Writer | Artist
I'm late to this but I thought the intro meme seemed fun so I stole it from a friend. Questions I didn't want to or couldn't really answer got omitted.
Name/Nickname: Wilde or Geist.
Gender: good question
Pronouns: They/them
Age: 27
Fun Fact(?):
I've lived in and been to countries all over the world and basically grew up travelling. I was also raised in Kuwait until I was around 11. Did you know the malls there are a hundred times more awesome than literally any American mall I've ever seen and absolutely gigantic in comparison? If you really need an example, google the Avenues mall of Kuwait. I miss the malls and restaurants and I'm heartbroken that I can't find anything quite like it again in the US. I'm completely serious
Hobbies:
Drawing, composing music, writing, video editing, video games, and I love camping when I get the opportunity, too, even if it's rare! (Especially backpacking/old-fashioned camping where you REALLY go in with little to no tech)
Interests:
Tea (as in I'm REALLY into tea and have a special kettle and fancy teas and everything), astronomy, theoretical physics, horror, music, travel, world history, folklore and mythology, etymology and language history, comics, VR, international food
Dream Job:
Either my creative stuff full-time (pipe dream), or a job that allows me the time and energy to do my creative stuff in my spare time (what I have now). I like my current job cause it's not that stressful and I'm happy with where I am currently. I'm very simple
Favorite Music Genres:
A lot. Industrial metal, power metal, IDM, a bunch of different electronic subgenres, ambient and atmospheric, alt and indie stuff (those hard to categorize bands), synthpop, and anything that has interesting noises and soundscapes that's hard to class into specific genres. Some of my favorite artists include KMFDM, Muse, Blind Guardian, Blaqk Audio, The New Division, Two Door Cinema Club, and The Horrors. But that's by no means a comprehensive list and just what pops to mind first.
--ART QUERIES--
Favorite Medium:
Digital I guess, since that's what I do most. When I do traditional I like ink and marker most.
Favorite Subjects:
I draw from personal themes in the stories I write even if I don't always directly parallel my own experiences. I make a lot of work about things that scare me. When I'm composing music I'm usually either making music based off of my own stories or characters, or using it to express feelings that are difficult for me to verbalize.
Favorite Artists / Inspiration:
Honest answer? My friends. I'm not really one to take direct inspiration and apply it to my work- I just really like the things my friends make and it motivates me to make things too.
What piece are you the most proud of?
I have my favorites but not a specific one. I'm still consistently pretty happy with this three-piece set though: Perdition , Remotion , Exaltation
How long have you been creating?
Since I could
How did you learn?
For art, mix of self-taught and some formal training. For music, entirely self-taught- it's why my composition style is a bit unconventional!
How long does it usually take for you to make something?
Greatly depends. I think I draw a lot faster than I used to though. Pieces rarely take as long as I fear they will.
What's the big project that you haven't gotten around to yet?
Sableheart. My webcomic under construction. "Haven't gotten around to" is a little shaky, because it's pretty far in development and far enough in production that I have gone through a few prologue drafts, but it isn't actually published yet, so I guess it still counts. I'll consider it officially "gotten around to" when it's in a state that I can put finished pages out. It's a space fairy tale about a traumatized depressed alien knight who sold his soul to demons dying and then re-awakening in his planet's spacefaring era. He then gets to experience horrors beyond his comprehension
