October 25, 2007 - 2:52 AMSee Also: 'Down the Rabbit Hole' Episode Guide CSI: New York's resident lab tech, AJ Buckley (Adam Ross), admits to being a geek in real life.
"I'm a dork for sure," Buckley told Yahoo! Tech. "I'm able to laugh at myself, at my quirks, and stuff." And he thinks that's a good thing. "Geeks, dorks, I think we got a corner on the marketplace, and we rule," he said. Buckley's character, Adam, had an important role to play in the upcoming New York episode "Down the Rabbit Hole". He was the one to introduce Mac Taylor (Gary Sinise) to the online world of Second Life.
In real life, Buckley does not participate in Second Life, but he does have some high-tech toys. "I love my Blackberry Curve," he said. "I like it now that it can take pictures." He also downloads music from the internet. "I love the Apple store, and getting music that way," he said. "I think that's the most genius idea ever." And he needs gadgets to play the music that he buys. "I have two iPods," he said. "I have the Shuffle, and the black 40GB iPod." One high-tech device that Buckley does not own is the new iPhone. "I was going to get the iPhone, but thought I'd wait for a little bit and just let them work out the hiccups they've had," he explained.
Buckley has gadgets for work as well as pleasure. He owns two HVX200 high-definition video cameras for his company, Fourfront Productions. "We create commercials and shorts," he said. "One of my partners has been working on webisodes, podcasting, things like that." Buckley has advice for aspiring video producers. "Go for it," he said. "Don't be afraid. The greatest thing about young and up-and-coming producers and filmmakers, is you're the studio. You can do it all. You don't have to outsource. Learn the technology, understand the technology, and do everything."
