- Aaron Jones
"Aaron is neither an inside or outsider, despite having populated almost every level of that spectrum: the “totality” of high- and low-brow doesn’t exist in his world. He will use puke, the history of Detroit, and Danny Brown to make the same point. It will probably blow your mind and/or make you pee your pants. If there is a future for architecture as a method of inquiry into culture at large, then Aaron may be one of its sole explorers."
