Frequently Asked Questions »

» Who are you?
My name is David. I’m the executive producer and co-founder of Ringleader Productions in Los Angeles. I make commercials, music videos, and the occasional indie feature.  I often wear cowboy boots, which technically I am allowed to do as I was born and raised in Tennessee.

» What is this?
This is a tumblelog.  A tumblelog is a stream of consciousness.  It is a delicious little compendium of images, links, videos, quotes, and short blurbs that don’t necessarily share a common thread, but can collectively be pieced together to form a digital personality. As with any good tumblelog, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.

» Why a tumblelog?
Like most of my generation, I am a media whore with an attention deficit and a super fast internet connection. I enjoy sharing my thoughts with others, but since I don’t suffer from megalomania and often have better things to do, I could never bring myself to spew forth a full-fledged blog. I find my tumblelog to be the perfect fun-sized solution.

» What does it all mean?
Very little, in the grand scheme of things.

» And you’re okay with that?
Yes. If you have any doubt as to your staggeringly inconsequential place in the universe, I suggest you look here.  Go ahead, embrace the fleeting insignificance of the human condition. 

» How can you live like that?
Quite well, actually. I find that life without delusion is better on the whole, and I take great joy in the pursuit of truth, beauty, and pleasure.

» Oh, you’re one of those godless liberals, aren’t you?
Yes. In cowboy boots.

» You’re not going to get all preachy political are you?
Not really. I have strong political opinions, but I won’t polute my tumblelog with them for the same reasons I don’t plaster the back of my truck with bumper stickers… It’s tacky, I’m not a douchebag, and I’m old enough to know that if I want to effect political change, I should raise money rather than awareness.

» Well, what are you going to talk about?
Delicious irony, dirty art, subversive humor, thickening plots, sublime intoxication, our bizarre legal system, and other stuff that makes me look cool.

» You rock. May I give you money and/or have sex with you?
Yes you may, although not both at the same time. That’s illegal… unless a camera is involved, in which case we have constitutional protection.

» I still have a question!
Fine, just ask me via email. Or you can contact me through Facebook.
