ABOUT THE SITE

Who am I

My name is M3rcury and I am the webmaster of this site. I'm 24 years old, though I usually act about 15. I live completely for art, especially music. I love all art though, painting, drawing, clothing design, graphic design, website design, video game creation, everything and anything that involves inspiration and creation.

I live near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. I'm not a very exciting person. My life basically consists of using 90% of my free time drawing, painting, singing, writing, recording, playing video games or working on this site. When I''m not doing all those things, I'm usually just listening to music or just hanging out online.

Music

My musical tastes are VERY varied and change all the time. My favorite band is and always will be Marilyn Manson. But I''m always finding new music and artists to listen to. If you''ve got a band or you''ve got some music you think I''d like, send it my way. A small sampling of the music I listen to:

Film

I like weird movies, let me just start off with that disclaimer. If you ever watch any of the movies I like and you end up in a psych ward, don''t blame me. I like movies that make me think, movies that scare me, movies that are cheesy, movies that are different, movies that hurt, movies that are truely art. The same goes as I said with the music, if you see any films that seem like they''d be my to my liking, by all means send me an email about it.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show, The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things, A Clockwork Orange, Natural Born Killers, Queen of the Damned, Girl Interrupted, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles I & II, Mary Shelly''s Frankenstein, Night of the Living Dead, Resident Evil, Silent Hill, Howl''s Moving Castle, Spirited Away, American Beauty, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Edward Scissorhands, Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory (both the original and the 2005 remake), The Matrix Trilogy, Friday the 13th, The Day After, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, The Crow, Lord of the Rings, Godzilla and too many more to list.

Video Games

The first video game I ever played was when I was about 6: Super Mario Brothers/Duck Hunt for the now-classic Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), so I guess you could say I''ve always been a gamer. But unlike many people who played the vintage systems in their hayday, I still love the current generation systems as well. I''m all over the place when it comes to video games, but I''m always a sucker for a good survival horror game.

Silent Hill, Resident Evil, Fatal Frame, Dead Rising, Castlevania, Splatterhouse, Final Fantasy, Earthbound (Mother), Need For Speed, Zombies Ate My Neighbors, Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero, the Super Mario Brothers series, Gears of War, The Legend of Zelda series, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Bully, Grand Theft Auto, Xenosaga and many more.
