We were given three months to bring our creation to the public.

Our mission is to bring respect back to the Boise river and maybe even install a healthy amount of fear.

As a fan of giant monsters, two of the most famous stuck out for me. The way a monster like King Kong could terrify you, swoon you, then tear your heart in half made him my favorite.

But then there is Kong’s rival, Godzilla. An enormous baby throwing a tantrum through a city of building blocks. At the root he was a victim, the embodied karma we brought forth on ourselves after causing nuclear devastation in Japan.

I want Boise to fear the wraith of the river if disrespected and abused. I want people to also care about it as a whole entity, and want to preserve its magnificence. Don’t @*%#! Where you eat cause it might just bite you in the bum.
