Our Story

Noize is a site focused on visual journalism, photography, music, opinion pieces, popular culture and general shenanigans that showcase a path to modern enlightenment. We also aim to celebrate self-expression and the power of the written word especially when paired with striking imagery. The name “Noize” originally came to be because of the noise music makes and the noise found in low-light photography:)
