Happy New Year

I was thinking what would be my first post for '08, I wanted to write something full of hope, deep and poetic... Nothing crossed my mind beside shoes, sneakers in particularly. I discovered very recently that I'm addicted to kicks! is not that I'm obsessed with it but I'm committed to this 3 consuming pleasures. Vinyl records, glasses (50's to 70's) and sneakers. Here are some of the latest news from the wonderful world of sapatilhas (portuguese slang for sneakers)
dc-shoes-subtext-kicks.jpg
DC Shoes in association with Subtext will present a special exhibition titled Kicks late next month. The event will include a series of customized sneakers from an extensive artist list

Beniko Tanaka... HAKA!

DSCN4042.jpg
Haka! performances are a poetical challenge for us and the ones that make to our show start to know that all the performances we do are unique and we always try to go to new places and join other artistic forms into our recitals.
The last show we did, started with Hugo Antunes dropping one of his solo compositions. Beautiful and deep! During that me and Nástio went to the public and start telling secrets to some persons on the audience.

DSCN4037.jpg

After that we went back to the stage and jumped on some intense social poetic slam, about our relation with europe or the relation of two african poets with the old continent.

africaeurope.jpg

After 25 minutes, we left the stage and started a tape with conversation that we pre-recorded in that afternoon about the concept behind the Lisboa Mistura Festival and the real meaning of this "mixed Lisbon" idea. 10 minutes passed and then Beniko walked into the stage dressing a traditional Japanese costume to announce the end of the show.

Yes sir... Nástio



I would love that everybody could speak portuguese. Nástio is bringing some fresh ideas to this movement, some people like to call it lusophonia. I prefer to call it HAKA! somebody is doing it without waiting for the artistic salvation that sometimes the countries that don't speak English do.

Soul and Funk Nicole Wills and Soul Investigators


Just got back from Porto, a city in the north of Portugal, 3 hour by train from Lisbon. Went there with my poet partner. Nástio for a spoken word slam. Soon I will drop some images and sounds from that night. This words now are for the Soul Investigators. Soon I got out of the train I went to meet then and took them for lunch, in a plaza near my house, sun, fish, wine and beers, sometimes it's hard to believe that we are in the winter here in Lisbon. The youtube link is from Nicole Willis and the boys. Looking fwd to see them live tomorrow.
