This Saturday, 13th of September was a good moment to pray for peace and look after Mother Earth, meditate, dance and unite mind and heart with the teachings of Roy Little Sun (am investigating a bit now, who is he, why does the message come this way and so on) and celebrate Leonard Peltier's birthday ...

Some Writing & Interests
If you don't get the Japanese words above and want to learn something about my culture, then go to the Original Thought Magazine. I collaborated with an article named "My Mother was not a White Dove" and wrote about my laissez-faire education and thoughts about how I feel about understanding Japanese people, especially my own mother.Check it out at the December 2007 issue at www.originalthoughtmag.com/mag/index.php?option=com_content& amp;task=view&id=219&Itemid=219.
Hope you enjoy it! Another article is on its way, expect the unexpected ...
Anyway, I've got good news: I recently fell in love with the indian spirit through my free lance translation work for Mario Agreda, known as "El Indio". It's a good expercience, being close to a director of documentaries on Mayan culture and especially involved with the AIM (American Indian Movement) especially because I'm not red nor white, couldn't even imagine myself being black, now how would that be? I'm just yellow and I like it, it's a good in between, as long if there's some colour :)
Thanks to this small translation job, I got the chance to find out more about the spiritual part of this movement and hear the healing and inspiring words of Russel Means over and over again ... My respect to all leaders and members of AIM, Peltier's family, Harvey Arden and all of those people, true to themselves and fighting for what's most important to all of us, the essence of life: our freedom.
Next video is a play on Leonard Peltier's life:
And this is just good literature for all of us about Leonard Peltier:
Projects: Colectivo Mithology - Beat Da Street Project - Aisa Festival
I furthermore dedicate my free time as a member of our collective, dedicated to trance and psybient music, with some room for experimental music, named Colectivo Mithology. We are just 3 members and it is getting more "serious" lately, especially since I've founded the Beat Da Street Project.I always describe the Beat Da Street Project with a female touch. Just like Atenea was born out of Zeus' head, SHE, was born as an idea coming from my experiences with the collective I'm involved with. I personally consider Beat Da Street to be a woman. That doesn't necessarily mean I myself feel like Atenea though, I personally feel I'm more like Artemisa in Greek mithology, but as we all know, we constantly change from day to day, however, we might not notice it.
The Beat Da Street Project 2008 is there to promote all sorts of creativity around and within us, and to share this idea at a free street parade to take place in Madrid. We are also planning to offer an event afterwards, in a park, open air, we have the support of the city hall, which is only good for what we aim for.
As a collective dedicated to psychedelic trance music, psybient and experimental music, we've chosen 3 other different interesting cultures apart from the Psychedelic Trance Culture: Mayan Culture, because of its calendar and its way to be connected with Nature, Cyber Culture with its proper music scene, which will be breakcore and some industrial music and cyber wear performances and Graffiti Art with other artistic performances (example: students of Bellas Artes will bring a modern performance based on Mayan Culture, so will the graffiti writers do) to be brought together in a one-day event in order to celebrate the diversity and innovation among us.
All collaborators who participate with this project will be the main protagonists of this street event mainly because of their integrity with themselves as artists of all kinds. Their participation with the Beat Da Street Project will be based on these four particular art topics. All their artistic work will be brought together and merged among these disciplines in art in order to integrate with each other and to bring something new to Madrid and its cultural and social activities.
Lastly, they will show that we can all work together on a common idea: to create the choice of a day to be conscious about who we are so that we can all co-create among ourselves. Thanks to all of them, we can see the event as a social gathering and as a necessity among all the collaborators to offer this cultural initiative to the society in which we live.
Our collective is also involved in a project with promoting a small village up north in Spain called Aisa, through art and music. It is located up north at the Spanish Pireneos and we have celebrated the first edition of AISA Festival during 3 days (25 - 26 - 27 July this year) with all sorts of activities organized by the village people itself. People could assist to rock concerts at local level (a huge football field) and could be at an area where to listen and dance to psy- trance music (a smaller picnic spot). The building up and organization of it was our part of the event.
