I am creative and boring.

I’d been dreaming to get involved into animation since I was a small child. I can remember myself constantly creating cartoons, film strips… I liked to draw and take pictures very much. I tried to construct my own film projector after all.

It was occasionally that I’ve got involved into ophthalmology. It all happened due to my shortsightedness. I became the inventor of shortsightedness treatment to my own surprise. So due to my citizenship I was urged to become deeply involved into the issue.

I love to scrutinize various hand-made stuff: drafts, cartoons, design pieces, any utilities, whatever. If it’s hand-made I look into the way people have done the thing, this aspect being highly informative for me.

I am a bit of a thrifty person. I spend money on my family, on the prospective, on my child’s education. I wouldn’t do so for the sake of military expenditures.

I don’t rush to the place I am going to stay forever.

I don’t like swearing. Though I do swear, I still don’t like doing it.

Animation is a divine thing. I guess it’s closer to worlds’ generation in all their aspects that anything else. To demiurges I mean. So we get closer to God by operating these things.

For the better or for the worse I have not had a hobby. As soon as I get interested in something, I turn the thing into my occupation in a wink. I get involved into the process whether they want me there or not. That trait enables me to get simultaneously involved into directing, animation, making scripts, graphic design and ophthalmology.

People should avoid stereotypes by all means, they are another form of manipulation. It’s like there’s a common knowledge and everybody considers it to be the only truth. This knowledge is usually based on a sort of statement, which prevents people from gaining the insight of things.

People strive to manipulate each other, the whole of our value system being based on people’s itch to get as much money as possible. Unless this aim shifts, people are destined to manipulate. It’s a sort of game you know: he who pays the piper calls the tune.

The Internet is a tremendous aspect that invests into uniting mental power and strength of different individuals. It is a universal mind, one can connect to. A crucially significant thing.

I can feel my mental enrichment being in process when I communicate to an individual. And when I talk to the crowd it’s nothing about enriching myself in the least of it. And I do not like when it happens.

The notion “love” is closely connected to the notion “family” for me. Nowadays I take love as the process of mutual construction in the first place.

Since I stopped regularly commuting to my work, my attitude towards public transport has become more positive.

If I went to a deserted island I would bring there a penknife and a harmonica.

I don’t get addicted to things, but still I have a number of very significant things for me. Jiggers. Right, I’ve got geegaws I value and love. I’ve got not that many things you know, I’ve thrown them all away you know. But I do have geegaws. They can not be even slightly scratched.

I must say that I have a warm spot for Hollywood. First it’s really warm there in the first meaning of this word, second I’ve got friends there so it’s even warmer there, third, the way Hollywood gets the stars in the sky of the world cinematograph is really cool. At least in the sphere of business. It is respectworthy.

Complexes follow awry upbringing, they are based on the wrong values scale of the parents. This phenomenon goes from generation to generation, being as transmittable as a genotype.

I think that human vision of nature laws is so poor and primitive, not to mention the vision of miracles. It often happens that we take a bit outstanding event as a miracle, omitting such notions as “life” and “mind”.

Giving birth to a baby is nothing but the true mystics for me.

I am interested in human clothes as far as it can speak for some cultural profile, an aspect of creativity. I do not like the certain degree of diktat and manipulation in fashion.

The highest happiness for me almost does not differ from what I’ve got now, I guess the first is a bit more free of material problems.

I take many things as merely a game and render the fact as a considerably sound attitude towards life.

I like Salvador Dali a great deal. But I wouldn’t call him an artist. He is Salvador Dali. And he is really cool, really! His album is one of my brightest childhood impressions.

I like the way a new laptop smells.

What I really can’t stand is showy godliness, I mean when people transmit some money, erect churches. I believe one should first sort out one’s own inside, one’s own life. We are to start with ourselves. Once we maintain it ok within each of us, there will be no problems left.
