No longer active.

Portland, Ore., via San Francisco / Lompoc, Calif.
Much rather be in Berlin or Antarctica or bed.

Volunteer DJ/selector at Freeform Portland. Lapsed A/V artist + film school burnout with mercurial record of experimental video-making, audio/sound post-production, still photography, and hobbyist DJ mixing. Barely resists urge to use quotation marks on labels like artist and experimental. Longing to expand creative endeavors in visual and sound production. Altogether boring person since '92.

In prolonged transitional period. Blames creative exhaustion on academia and blue-collar drudgery. Maybe (probably) doesn't give a shit after all. Still waiting to see.

Aliases: M. Nichols, DJ N/A, MN/A, Rex Gumbo, Ernesto Simms, Raoul Shmunshin, DJ Nichols & Dimes, 571, 731, 878, et cetera.

I don't do much, but when I do, it's w/e.
