<p>I listen to a lot of things. I'm very eclectic. Lately I've been into Dark Ambient/Ritual Music, free improvisation and experimental. It's like listening to an abstract work of art.</p>

<p>I like to illustrate song lyrics but also to make song art for the songs I do on my own as well as the ones I do in collaboration with others. I have collected a bunch of them in a group at flickr if anyone is interested in having a look at them. They almost all have subsequent links to the songs themselves for those who would like to hear them also.</p>

<p>Yes, but no. That is, there's nearly always music (or noise) playing in my studio throughout the day. Even when I'm not working on anything it's there filtering out of the room into the rest of the house. I keep the radio on if I'm not listening to something I'm into at the moment (or in the mood for), which ranges from new age to metal... baroque, classical, jazz, fado, punk, raga, kirtan, noise, drone, electronic, new wave &c...

I know that it weaves its way into my work, but I don't feel I use it to stimulate my creativity, it's just a big part of my life in general. </p>

I generally prefer silence except for the sounds of nature when I am outside. Mostly because I am surrounded by a cacophony of loud music and voices all day at work and from the TV when the kids are home. The only exception to this is when I seriously work on my Chinese Brush painting, I like to play my Taoist music or Chinese folk music CDs.

<p>Thanks for reminding me - next time I'll be the first to capture the audio equipment in this house, to enjoy listening music while creating mail art.<br/><br/><br/>*) By the way, during the few concerts I attended I do. <br/>To keep the connection with 'mail art': these sketches have been made on envelopes as there was no other white paper around :-) </p>

I'm going to try and keep track of which pieces are made listening to which music and post here. We'll see if I can stay focused on this plan for more than a few minutes! ;)
