While the exact moment they met is up for debate, it's certain GARRETT JOHNSON and BEN NICHOLSON bonded over 'making stuff' while attending JAMES MADISON UNIVERSITY in the mid-aughts.

On one side of the coin, GARRETT is the detailed oriented, science obsessed storehouse (or trash can, depending on what day you ask him) of bizarre facts and fantastic yarns. He's also a verified super recognizer, a person with “a significantly better-than-average face recognition ability” (he would love to know how to put this superpower to use). His love of outrageous tales and unusual trivia makes him something of a Kramer to BEN’S Jerry, but he’s also a crafty Newman under that zany veneer.

On the flip side BEN is a creative generalist and lover of the extreme. Smitten by art that takes experimental swings, BEN enjoys noise ‘music’, long takes, and David Lynch. For a few years he was a scenic designer at a regional theater in Southern VA. Afterwards he moved to DC, working as a graphic designer, then a programmer, which brought him to LA. BEN loves pushing boundaries and combining genres while GARRETT reins him in. His focus is on overarching goals, ensuring GARRETT’S fine-tuned inspiration is as expansive as it is complete.
