Do you have a birth story to tell? Blood Magik / Birth Herstories Hosted by Moonstone Babies and UltraCultural Others



CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS: BLOOD MAGIK/Birth Herstories....
A Rebirth Ritual, Speak-out & Soundscape
presented by Ultracultural Others
Undakova & Or Nah with Bailey Rollins of Moonstone Babies

Do you have a birth story to tell?
"Women of the Earth, Take Back Your Birth"

We want to hear your birth stories - the momentary pleasures, pains, traumas and triumphs as you made your way through the birth spiral. We especially want to hear from women who danced and sang out their babies, rebelled against convention, made art, made love, experienced orgasmic birth, unassisted birth, water birth or birth outside in nature. We also want activist stories speaking out against the violence done to women's bodies by an overmedicalized, corporatized hospital system. We want your story, the raw and honest truth. We want to combine the stories of many strong Mothers into a powerful oral herstory that foregrounds women's natural birthing instincts, hormonal thresholds of pleasure, and spiritual power.

We want you to bring your sisters, mothers, grandmothers, partners, sons and daughters to this important community forum and rebirth ritual. Let's weave our stories into song, poem and speech form.

As part of Open Source Gallery's "Reimagining Tradition"
A Ritual Art Series (highlighting intersections between socially engaged art & ritual practice)
This project will take place over the weekend of Oct 19-22, East River Ampitheater (Exact dates and location TBA)

7 Reasons why becoming a member of Beat365 rocks.

As you already might know I go by the alias Undakova (Undercover) and I am beat maker, DJ and MC here in NYC. I have been producing hip hop beats since the 90s and have produced my own hip hop instrumentals for my album created here in New York City. I often get asked by R & B artist and MCs "Can you produce some beats for my album?" One day the question popped up in my head "Where does an artist find great sounding Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them?" If an artist doesn't have a friend or business partner who is a producer or know how to/ want to produce beats on there own spare time (which can take a lot of time and money) where does he/she find a complete collection of hip hop beats? Well the answer is simple. . . . To find Hip hop, r&b and rap beats that sound so good you play them in your car for fun as well as record song after song with them go to Beats365...

What is Twhirl?

Ok so its been a few month of being involved in twittering. Yes I have been on Twitter since January I believe and I have about 530 followers and have made several tweets which go directly to my facebook status which I love. So basically I have been using twitter to be a connection to making status's that not only go to facebook but can be on the twitter public timeline as well as in several widgets that are attached to my blog and even myspace. I guess its say for me social networking has been a focus in the new year. But it gets better. . .even better. I am about to try Twhirl. You know what Twhirl is? oh man so why didn't you tell me? Oh oh you don't know what it is? Well its a desktop application (which might be shady) that allows you to organize your twitter experience in a huge way. They even have more of these desktop appliciations available by other names. Tweet Deck and some others probably exist too. So anyhow it was a decision between Tweet deck and Twhirl for m...

Rumor or Fact: Guitar Center is about to change hands.

I don't really trust what you read online. You have to do your own research. Its always a good way to start a inquire or conversation. Is taking information from blogs as straight raw facts a good idea? I always noticed that blogs are usually someones opinion and not the news, and even the news is opinionated and rarely factual these days(in my blog opinion).  Anyhow the link below is written  Eric Garland a "trend analyst" who alledgely has the inside scoop on what is going on behind the company Guitar Center. What you will read after clicking the link can change the landscape of the music industry and many other businesses, musicians. Check it out and see for yourself how YOU might directly be affected by Guitar Center's changing of ownership. Reminds me of when someone told me that Tower Records was going to close down in the city and I wouldn't be able to preview vinyl records the same way I grew up doing because there would be a main online store that ...
