Rack & Ruin has always been proud of the diversity that we have to offer on the site, and we have also been proud how we have managed to get artists working together on various projects. Robby Massey (aka dessktop / a warmth) has his hands in many artistic projects, including "Desolation Wilderness",a movie made by himself and Derek Mungor.
