Cyril:   As a musician, I started as a pianist and got a degree in composition.  I started writing songs.  When the female acts I was producing at the time didn't fit the vibe, I began to sing the songs myself.

While producing other acts I wasn't happy with the photography or cover art I was receiving from other photographers and graphic artists, so I learned photography.  I became pretty proficient very quickly. My talents were recognized and published early on.  A career change was inevitable.  I do continue to produce my own and other musical acts.

The idea of web publishing came out of the necessity to propagate my work to a wide international audience and to connect to other artists, musicians, poets, etc.  I guess it's pretty evident that I like to produce my own work and I'll go to great lengths to get it just the way I want it.

Cyril:  Well, I never really stop working.  Really.  I do have momentary bouts with unconsciousness. (Translation: I take naps in my coffin) lol.  And yes, I stay up all night.   If I do sleep it's usually between sunrise and noon only.  My day is comprised of work in the fields of fashion photography, graphic, textile and web design, music production and songwriting

Cyril : I contact many of my contributors on line.  I meet them in chat rooms, on ICQ or if I'm intrigued by their website I'll contact them via e-mail.   I look for a contributor who has bizarre taste and uniqueness in style.
