Get To Know: Rise Against

I have had countless discussions with artists about the responsibility of the creator of images and sounds. In these conversations, I have found the foundation for my understanding of the importance of art. I have also realized that my ideas about how art should be used, are very constrained. I think that art should serve a purpose and that the artists have to consider the audience, not to cater to the audience, but to promote discourse. The conversation does not have to be comfortable; on the contrary, it should be uncomfortable, but it should have a point. Right now, I can't say anything else about Rise Against. I need you to watch this video, amazing and powerful.

When Memphis is At It's Best

I'm not writing much here because the individual websites speak for themselves. Memphis in May is an annual event that features a multitude of tasty, entertaining treasures. What is even better this year is that the Memphis Grizzlies are in the second round of the NBA Playoffs bringing an extra amount of flavor to the city. This is a chance for Memphis to shine, even through the rough weather. Visit both of these sites and get into the spirit of the city.
