Rise Industries

Ninjas again…. This time in an attempt to take over Detroit.

So, its been pretty slow over here at Rise Industries, and thats mostly because it has not been slow at all in other areas. So, soon you should see several updates and additions. Including the beginning of a thesis project about the relationship of Archtitecture to the Production of Luxury. And more art works and reviews. Coming later this month.

Really.

“if today was not a crooked highway.

if tonight was not a crooked trail

if tomorrow wasn’t such a long time

then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all.”

sorry.

sometimes i just need to quote bob dylan.
