This is the photography, writing and design portfolio of Matthew Ripley. Before this the author showed some of his work at the websites Homogenized and Catalyst. But enough with the hiding beneath the Groucho Marx glasses of a pseudonym or clever domain name! If you aren't interested in the work presented on this site, or find the musings of its author boring, he doesn't blame you. In fact, he sympathizes with you fully as he also finds his creations and writings insipid.

The author is a journalism student. He lives in sunny, smoggy, sprawling Southern California (and apparently enjoys alliteration). The author likes music, and is under the delusion that he is unique because of this. While not serving tables or writing articles, he goes to shows in small, sweaty clubs in Hollywood where bands most people have never heard of play to a crowd of bored and boring hipsters.

Finally, if you're at all interested in anything the author has to say, you might be interested in Neckbeard, his blog. It's read by about 10 people and updated infrequently at best. So...there's that.
