These photos, taken at the concert of the artist in the footnote show the sort of person that is interested in certain types of music, making it clear that audiences are influenced by the music they like to a large degree. I have done a similar thing for Temple Scene by creating a fictional person and discussing their interests and beliefs.

Name/Nickname - James

Appearance -

Gender - Male

Age - 26

Relationship - Casual relationship with his girlfriend

Favourite music - Enjoys a wide range of music, but is particularly into Coldplay, Radiohead, Keane, Bloc Party, Muse and a range of late 80's artists. Also played piano up to when he was 22, but has mostly given up since.

Religious - Atheist. Does not believe in God, but believes in some of the ideologies behind religion.

Education - Went to a fairly peaceful city state school and passed GCSE's and A Levels with a B average. Attended art school for a year before dropping out and taking 3 years on a graphic design course in a reputable university.

Clothing preferences - Almost always dresses casually, loosely following trends. Recently is mostly seen wearing tight jeans and a simple (t-)shirt. Shops in a variety of high-street chains for clothing, choosing by what appeals to him and price. Tries to avoid spending large amounts on clothing.

Sports - Socially plays sports, and is also a keen runner. Enjoys the health and fashion benefits less than he enjoys occasionally choosing different directions for the adventuring aspect of the sport. Has tried a large range of sports over his life, including surfing and snowboarding, but never took them very far.

Occupation - Freelance graphic designer with plans of setting up a studio. Currently works from home using a special room converted for work, which, detached from the rest of his recently acquired house he claims makes distraction harder.

Internet uses - Heavy internet user work social, work and play purposes. Uses Twitter, Facebook, and a range of design sites frequently. Also hosts his own site and helps others set up theirs.

Spare time - Makes the most of his many high tech technologies such as his expensive TV and sound system plugged into games consoles or HD DVD player(bought instead of Blu-Ray due to the much smaller price tag of the kit and the films). He casually plays sport and is often seen in cafés with friends, and his flexible work hours allows him to do this regually.
