Violet Behavior
Violet Behavior isn't afraid to sing loudly in her car. Whether she's driving it from Texas to Chicago to Pittsburgh to Los Angeles to Luxembourg, there's no mistaking the high-decibel, even-keeled crooning along to anything from Johnny Cash to DAC to Sugar Babylon to The Boys to The Buzzcocks to The Partisans to Babes in Toyland to The Meatpuppets to The Velvet Underground to Leonard Cohen to The Rolling Stones to Metric to Wendy O to old Madonna to Siouxsie to The Doors to Elvis to Fleetwood Mac to Blondie to Joan Jett to Guns n Roses to David Bowie to Echo and the Bunnymen to The B-52's to Nirvana to Morrissey to Mazzy Star for anyone but her.
As Michio Kaku says of our Texan Hotpunkgirl:
"We treat the action for a bosonic membrane as a sigma model, and then compute quantum corrections by integrating out higher membrane modes. As in string theory, where the equations of motion of Einstein's theory emerges by setting [the proper equation], we find that, with certain assumptions, we can recover the equations of motion for the background fields. Although the membrane theory is non-renormalizable on the world volume by power counting, the investigation of the ultra-Violet Behavior of membranes may give us insight into the supersymmetric case, where we hope to obtain higher order M-theory corrections to 11 dimensional supergravity."
While we can't disagree with Dr. Kaku's glowing appraisal of this one-of-a-kind model-about-the-globe, we think he's missing her potential for diversity (11 dimensional supergravity notwithstanding). She's currently in Los Angeles doing a two-week photo shoot for a Devilman Lady book cover, but she's used to playing a variety of characters from a variety of times and places. From roaring '20s flapper to Skyy Vodka poster girl to Living Doll, Violet Behavior's not easily confined to one genre. Embracing life as a journey accompanied by a veritable menagerie of creatures including a cattahoule curr dog named Peyton, a pit bull named Frances, a pompom named SugarFoot (or Pittens), and a siamese cat named Loucious, Violet is seldom in danger in spite of her adventurous spirit.
Reading a steady diet of Aldous Huxley keeps her brain nimble and her eyes in working order. But Violet likes a little visual entertainment, too, like Curb Your Enthusiasm and True Romance. But she's dead set against cockfighting, so don't even talk about it around her. She's got attack pets, dig?
