“12 months in a year. 12 houses of the zodiac. 12 tribes of Israel. 24 hours in a day broken down into two 12 hour periods. 12 seems to be where the count stops. We are 13. We are evolution in action. Peace mixed with passion. One step past perfection on the pursuit of excellence. Find us in the midst. Find us in the mist, mingling with the mystics and the scientists, the artists and the hardest of hearts cracked open like dying stars peeling back the veil of the night. We are stone cold creators of a village of light shrouded in the uncertainty of the unknown. As such, we cordially invite you to make our art, your home.”

My future plans consist of freelance work, travelling with my photography and entering into as many art gallery exhibitions as I possibly can. I hope to ultimately become an international art director.

I am originally from Houston, TX however I grew up in a pretty small town that is ten minutes outside of the city’s limits. My world was pretty dull growing up, I often felt like every day was exactly the same.

I found myself escaping to my dreams, my vivid imagination, and ballet classes until I was eight years old and was given a computer with dial up internet. Even with a super slow connection, I found my link and love for the art world.

I received a digital camera when I was twelve and after that my journey into photography began. I’m inspired by culture, cinema, fashion, and people who dare to be bold and unique in this southern environment.

One of my professors once told me that my camera is my brush and people are my paints. It may sound cheesy but it is pretty accurate. My work primarily deals with alternative female identity in American contemporary society.

I contribute to Deep Dallas Music because I think the idea of covering local music is fantastic! I am extremely lucky to live in such a musically inclined town (Denton, TX) and I believe it deserves as much exposure as it can get.

The University of North Texas is so well known for its music and art that you couldn’t even throw a rock without hitting someone who is in a band.

I really believe in this music revolution that is happening in the DFW area and I am super excited to contribute to Deep Dallas Music because of their love and passion for discovering great local sounds in our community.

Since then, R.S. (Rhombi Survivor) relocated down to Dallas, TX where founder, Eric Boff has expanded its reputation from being solely music oriented, to photography and video services as well. Rhombi Survivor has become a name that is recognized for it’s unique and artistic compositions, as well as the R.S. lifestyle.

“RHOMBI are not square, they have the ability to turn something insipid into something inspiring. They are SURVIVORS in that they defend the integrity of their art at all costs. RHOMBI SURVIVOR is not for everyone, but, we WILL make you think” – Eric Boff

The Man Behind Rhombi Survivor

Eric Boff, founder of Rhombi Survivor is also known as The Brown Boy (band name) and Oh Jee Nam (his given name). He is a twenty-seven year old music producer/photographer/writer/entrepreneur, who was raised in the ‘palm’ of Michigan. His guitar playing brought him down to Dallas, TX to work as a music producer which eventually led him to an internship with Interscope/Universal.

After a brief stay in L.A., he brought his connections and experience back to Dallas, where he currently resides. Between producing music, shooting concerts, and writing a screenplay, Eric always has a number of projects on his plate. With Rhombi Survivor going strong, it seems his presence within the community is seeded firmly with plans on expanding his team/brand into something his city can be proud of…

Why Contribute to Deep Dallas Music?

Deep Dallas Music, is a treasure map unlocking the local underground music scene. I love to contribute photographic memories of shows that define our music culture here in Dallas. We have so many talented acts and it’s incredible to have a source for all those looking to get into the scene without putting up with the “hype”. Deep Dallas Music provides real insight to the artists that are worth checking out and know of all the “shows that won’t suck” in the DFW area. Deep Dallas Music is comprised of genuine fans of local talent and I definitely see our relationship as something that will not only strengthen our community but help rising talent become noticed on a national level.
