Bio

Blain likes to make things. One lunch time, as a five year old, he conned the other children and took every block in the classroom. With these blocks he built a large house for the other children to play in. And they did. The supervising teacher had probably head off for a coffee, or to do whatever it is teachers do during lunch hour. On return she was horrified to find a monstrosity set to collapse at any moment with little children inside. She stamped her authority and took Blain aside for a little chat...

... But Blain's obsession continued. As he grew older he built more than just a soap box derby car. He built waterslides, small roller-coasters, giant swings, a halfpipe, a luge track, ghost houses... the kid was not normal.

So time passes and has anything changed? Not really. Blain still likes to make things. But instead of trying to build the latest theme park ride, he is more content in writing music. He played in a band, travelling around New Zealand, playing shows while making animated videos. He had fun, but something wasn't right. You see, why be in a band with humans when you could make a virtual robotic band? And so begins a new phase of the madness...

Where could this all lead to?

Well, maybe Blain will create virtual fans, virtual groupies, a virtual music industry... hell, he might even end up replacing his girlfriend with a robot. Will it ever end? Probably not. Maybe when he dies he will create a virtual God and heaven.
