"From the Ridiculous to the Sublime"

This is the personal blog for Jonathan (Scooter) Clark. If you're interested in learning about Replant.ca Environmental, a company that I run which plants trees in parks and builds community forests, the link is in the right sidebar. If you happen to like techno music, visit the DJ Bolivia link in the sidebar. If trees and block-rockin' beats are not your thing, may I suggest knitting or crochet.

About Me

Jonathan (Scooter) Clark: I own a small recording studio and audio/visual production company, called Thirteen Towers. We also do environmental tree planting in public parks and demonstration forests under the Replant.ca Environmental brand name. I do a bit of DJ'ing and music production when time permits. Mostly techno, but other stuff too. For part of each year, I work as the supervisor of a large camp of tree planters on Canada's west coast. Once all that is said and done, I don't have much time left over for anything else. On a positive note, I believe that God (or aliens ... probably aliens) put me on this Earth to accomplish a certain number of tasks. And right now, I am so far behind that I will never die.
