Thanks to Ed Templeton via Twitter (@TempletonEd), I was made aware of this great interview with Arto Saari on the Leica Camera Blog.

I’ve always been a big fan of Arto and his chill melancholy’esk demeanor. His style is something that resonates with me personally. 

This oozes the Ride x Create vibe!

FOLLY // A Simple Idea

FOLLY Office

What is FOLLY?

FOLLY is a simple idea; a connective understanding of folks that ride… create.  At the risk of stereotyping all you fine creative folks that don’t ride anything; I’d say, in most cases, you are far and few between. 

This is my (Matt’s) personal creative space in Alabama.  Kyle’s creative space has no boundaries.  If I were to put a place he frequents more often than others… I’d have to say WELD in Dallas, TX.  It has been a great place for him to connect x create with like minded folks (cheers to that).

With that said, FOLLY started with a simple understanding.  We have pursued a consistent x progressive approach to growing what we have created; with the passion to become something more; in the hope we will encourage you to ride more and create something the world has never seen. NOTHING fills my heart like making rad connections in the Ride x Create community that is present everywhere.  The Ride x Create vibe isn’t something that just appeared out of nowhere… it is present in you, and has been since the beginning.

Cheers!
