DR: Aaron, tell me the story of the name aNYthing?
AB: I traded the name aNYthing for the name Undefeated. I had the name Undefeated and Eddie Cruz had the name aNYthing but wasn’t really doing anything with it. He called me up one day and we worked out the swap. This is another example of Arketing.
DR: What’s up with your TV show Aaron?
AB: It’s called Off-Bowery and it comes out March. It’s on the Playboy Channel and it’s about downtown and the process of an artist creating. It’s me and my artist friends Dan Colen, Dash Snow, Ryan McGinley, Earsnot, Agot Snow, Aaron Young and Sperms. MTV wasn’t in to it cause we’re not cute enough for 14 year old girls in the Midwest so Playboy Channel is about the only place where they could show this show.
DR: Any last words?
AB: The murder squads back! I got my boy Sperms by my side, the community’s ready and the game needs me to throw some healthy dysfunction back in the mix. We’re happy to be back working on this project, it’s going to be fun. aNYthing is my baby and I’m glad to have my baby back! Beyond that I have started a book publishing company O.H.W.O.W with my partner Al Moran. We’re supporting the arts creating a neighborhood called west of windward. We have out Fuck This Life with Weirdo Dave, The Back Door book, Jack Walls book and a recent one with Aurel Schmidt. We messing up the game you know, top of the food chain bottom of the barrel!
DR: And you Semen Sperms any departing words?
SS: We’re going to be able to execute some of the crazy projects we never got to complete when we left. I’m going to bring back NYCraze under the aNYthing umbrella, get the Glob rocking again and just raise the bar and give some meaning to this thing called streetwhere cause right now it needs it.
