>> I am not sure that there's a lot of media that really helps to explain me. There are books, films and music that I like a lot, and if you consume those you will probably learn something about me, but it's a bit indirect.
So I would go for: Read – The Chemistry of Life by Steven Rose. It's incredibly out of date, but it gives a pretty good sense of how I think of biology and why I'm interested in it, even if the details are long obsolete.
Watch – The Dépardieu Cyrano de Bergerac. My absurdly romantic side is only a small aspect of who I am but it's definitely there, and one of the things I'm romantic about is really really sentimental French poetry.
Listen to – Baroque keyboard music, which will tell you about how I'm drawn to things where the beauty is in the underlying structure and pattern. I like a lot of geometric art too, particularly the Arabic style with lots of tiny details. <<
What I enjoyed about reading this response in particular is that the relationships between the things you that chose sketches a broader depiction of your personality and thinking style. As I read, I noticed a connection between the reason you're drawn to Baroque music and the topic of biology, and then the absurdly romantic thing made a sort of contrast to that. Wow. You're not only many many many things that only partially fit in the meme, you're a very expressive writer. :)
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
