Hey everyone, I'm sorry to spam the boards but I though you all may be interested. I'm in a remix contest for the hip-hop artist K-oS. Check out my remix and if you dig it please drop a vote. You dont have to register or sign up for anything either. I'm in 8th place and if I win I get to have my track on hip album (Universal Records).

here is our team's promotion video:

the description is within the youtube page, in the description field, but just for reference,

"Participating in a CU Boulder Technology Arts & Media class called 'World Music Video As A Catalyst For Social Change', students Cody St Arnold and David Silvis' project focuses on showcasing the vast array of musical genres and styles present throughout the world which many people, young & old, come to take for granted. We hope to gather information from musician-friends as well as professional musicians, abroad, to provide a commentary on what music means to musicians as well as where they feel music is today. Through meeting with these musicians, as well as CU's very own Ethnomusicology advisor, we hope to pair the commentary with actual, personally improvised musical performances that we (and with the help of fellow friends and musicians) will play both on CU's Radio 1190 radio show, as well as in a live setting somewhere on CU's campus. We hope to share as many types of music with the general public, so that everyone can ultimately grasp the commonalities and unity among the many diverse forms of musical entertainment"

Seth and I have started to consider the musical angle of our copwatch project. Hip hop is and obvious avenue as it takes the most direct approach to the situation. However, It may be difficult to present a neutral view on the subject as many rap lyrics are charged with emotion and heavily weighted opinions.

The following link is a well articulated article about how hip hop deals with police brutality.

Hey guys! This world-renown choir from South Africa will be doing a concert at Macky on Thursday, October 30th.

I figure this would be a really great concert to attend for everything musical and everything related in our studies of musical appreciations.

Hope to see you there!

Greetings:
I apologize for not having made my presence known, I have been mad busy lately and have just now established an internet connection. My name is Seth, I'm an organizer who's been dealing primarily with organizers the Denver Hip-Hop scene and in the area of youth mentorship. I have been lately enamored with Paolo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed, especially as it pertains to how our privilege can be engaged in solidarity with those who have been heretofore denied these privileges. I have been discussing this course with some contacts of mine dealing with youth leadership nationwide, and so far I have seen interest from the Denver Social Justice organization with which I've been engaged in youth Mentorship, and with a some of friends who are fixtures in the Denver Hip-Hop community. Personally, even though this may be a tad late in the game, I think that discussion is essential in that we look to these community organizations to see not only what social issues are in need of being addressed, but moreso in figuring out how our artistic and academic resources can be strategically employed as part of the overall plans of these community leaders. If you want to check it out, the ArtN'Motion program engages graffiti culture for youth leadership, social justice and community health education (www.sistersofcolorunited.org). You can myspace the Denver Avengerz, Babah Fly, or Mike Wird/Whuerock Ma'at to see what they're putting out. Once again, a means to make welcomed and informed interventions in these communities and to facilitate collaborations of Praxis among interconnected communities is available to us, so anyone interested in what I'm talking about should be comfortable with putting his or her ego aside to get something real going.
Much Love,
Seth
