We all have purpose, we all have a walk to walk. Our paths are obscured by the random clutter of our daily lives; taxes, interrelational disputes, dreams, desires, lacks, emotions all distort the path we were destined to walk. Yet the winds of change is blowing once more, in a different direction. The four winds of the earth will now no longer blow from East to West, or from North to South, rather the winds of change will blow from within you and effect all that is around. We must all quiet our minds, we must all listen to the whisper of our spirits, and then in the clutter we will find the next step. We step, we reflect we attract and then we execute. Your purpose is vital to the correct development of our new society, Divinci artists and a Neo-Renaissance will be ushered into existence through the hands of the gods. And as was stated by old, we are all gods, and now is the time of our awakening. Allow the power within to guide you to the future only stored within the hopes of our dreams.

Even though numbers might just be numbers, moments just a fleeting piece of life we find ourselves at a new beginning. The dynamics of this world has changed drastically, we now live wiser, more knowledgable in how we interact. The past, yesterday, is but ancient history that occured to shape our lives today. We are what we were, and become what we desire most. This time around the renaissance is strong, the power is there, and now is the time for the ones of vision to rise and to conquer. But not through violence or force, but through understanding and wisdom we will establish a war of the spirit, an awakening of the soul. All the elements are in place, from the Liquid we ventured to the Nature...next to come is the Desert. A time to speak to your reflection, and find out who you really are!

 Tan pronto abrí los ojos. Llena de confusion, me encontre en una realidad tambaleante , a quien, gracias a mi familia pude lentamente llegar a despertar.

 

 

Clímaticos sentimientos. Recepciones y abstractas resùestas. Mas aquellaos sentimientos pronto tornaron hacia el viento hacia aquella brisa sumergiendome en aquella sinfonica canción de lagrimas compartidas.

 

 

Un día largo diría yo, atrapada en esta celda de succión. Es ahora ya mejor, mi mano fuerte a mi lado ha permitido resistir, firme, tenaz, inteligente músico de más...

 

 

 

Ningun soldado esta vez, caminando por las calles de antaño. Persiviendo el humor callejero mano a mano, buscando y tomando paso.

 

 

 Aquel parque circular me pareció esta y unica vezun tanto peculiar. La fantasia era realidad.

 

 

 

 

Contraste de luz ante luminosa y calurosa noche.El cumplimiento de un video, el afinar aquella carcomida garganta. Es ahora donde comienza la oportunidad de un dia mas,

 

 

 

 

" Mas el mañana quien ya definió

..... el mañana , por quien hoy soy."

 "Quiet mind elaborations.... 

  .....genius loud actions..."

 

Ileana Brizzio

In all movements there are stirs and echoes of things to come, after sixteen hundred miles through a blistering Arizona desert we stumbled into the humid air of the Mexican Gulf. We were met only one day after our arrival with the innovative liquid gig which sparked the grassroots movements to the International Art Festival Tour. Finally we united with Ileana Brizzio to form the three piece group to present art in all forms and all ways. 

 

The Liquid Gig was a huge success, which sparked the beginning phases of something greater. With Nature Gig on the horizon we can only wait patiently  to see this new ideology form. The application of modern day technology mixed with the heart and soul of pure raw art, the chapters to unfold will paint a picture to be remembered throughout history. A time for the Neo-Rennaisance is beating on the hearts of all the artists world wide, as global events are setting the stage for a new mind...a new way. 

Keep updated as the moments of now trancend into the pages of history, new minds and free art now!

Dear Legends,

Well, the morning started at 6 AM...sleep was covering our eyes and our entire bodies were broken. Today was the day of court...but before we enter into the precedings, we shall delve into the past.

 

Why are we going to court you may ask?

The answer is simple, the Santa Monica Police Department is complete retarded, they have substituted common sense with outright stupidity. I'm not sure why there people live like this, but to fine the street performers for some small things that would amount up to hundreds of dollars, is quite rediculous. Cator and I were surrounded by seven police officers becuase we were not using the right kind of battery. This was to be considered a fire hazzard, yet I fail to see how. We were using a wet-celled battery vs a dry-celled battery and that was our offense. Apparently the liquid from the battery could start a random fire on the concrete, especially if the audience would walk right through the act and accidently kick it over. The logic behind this has proven to be very similar to that of a rock, yet we had to comply since we are in Rome as the expression says.

 

The day of Court

The court was to start at 8:30 and we didn't intend to be late, so we booked it on a bus and found that to get there in time would present itself with some unique troubles. We don't actually know the area of Los Angeles that well yet, so to find the infamous Airport court was not the easiest thing to achieve, but a google map and a bus ride only left a few miles walk to actual building. We arrived, took of our belts , emptied our pockets and talked through the beepy machine. All the way at the ninth floor we waited to enter the courtroom, mingled with a few of the other "law-breakers" around and awaited our cases. We asked for a public defender, as law in the morning and us, don't mix. Our case came, we decided to just go with and plea no contest...the judge inquired as to what was the offense. When heard the reason behind it, he looked up with a face expressing: "WTF?" Nevertheless we did get fined and our court fees got waved...

 

So no jail for us Legends, and we can continue to make music...except this time with that fellenous tone of the intimitading "WET CELLED BATTERY MIS-USERS!"

This is an epic tale of a female like no other, she is the nurse as she is the doctor, she is the chef as she is the instructor, the teacher and the preacher, the driver and the psychologist, the care giver and the punisher, soft as white snow yet still tough as nails. No one can withstand the trials she stands, no one can care with the abundance of her heart. She is the prophet and the poet, the artist and the soldier, the lighthouse to guide you home and the pillow to rest your head. She is your counselor in hard times and your motivation when all is lost. Many times she is the answer to your prayers, and the hands that judgment spares.

Today is the day that we will honor her much, this hero, this Queen and icon in all times. This is the tale of the generalist the legend of our lives or in other words…you… mom!

Dear Legends,

Today is a very significant day for us as we came to the realization that we have been road warrioring for six months now. Ever since the fateful day we left the comforts of our apartment in the northern regions of Mexico, all the way to the crash landing here in Santa Monica we find ourselves in a state of blessedness. Even though it has been an intense adventure filled with colorful characters and beautiful scenery, we would choose no other path than the one we have walked. Two days ago we were fined by the Santa Monica Police for using the wrong type of battery to power our amplifier, even though this is a completely ridiculous fine as only complete idiots would actually see the danger in the battery we we're using,  we understood that this was a sign telling us that we are about to enter into a new level of existence.

Both Cator an I have adopted a philosophy of "doing what it takes" when we started on this journey, and playing on the Promenade was one of those moments where we did what we could when we could. The action of the seven police officers that surrounded us signaled that our time on the streets have expired and now that we must focus on the next step unknown. I can't say that we have not learned from the experience, yet now we find ourselves in the comfortable state of "who knows what's to come" yet our spirits are full of peace and tranquility as we know that our destiny is to do what we are to do, whatever that be.

As we reach our sixth month living the dream in our hearts we urge you to continue on what you dream and understand that it is within your reach it if you believe.

The day of your legend is upon you today, ignore the "facts" and look to a life filled with destiny and purpose. Today is your day! The day of Legends!

The world is a place that constantly evolves, empires rise and fall, societies shift and people try to take control.  The time has come again for the people to rise up, change is here do not worry. This is that glimmer of hope that keeps you sane, keeps you real.  When all seems to be going wrong, take a breath of fresh air, close your eyes and just listen, feel the calm that sustains us all.  Do not fear for the days are here when change turns things around and the good can reign once more.
Rejoice in these times and trust in your self.  The hardships are coming to an end.  Withstand the time at hand and all will work out, for you will achieve true freedom and not these lies that you have been fed.

Close your eyes, take a deep breath, change is here!

-Cator McClung-

Dear Legends,

Today as you sit there in your unfolding day, understanding that you dared to dream, and in the dream dared to bring it with you into your waking life. During this dream state you harbored no prejudice in what you expected from the dream, as a natural motion you accepted the expected, and even the not so expected. You understood that what you desire can manifest itself at any given moment, and what you truly seek is only a heartbeat away. Now that you are awoken into reality's gaze, realize that the same power remains, and the mind works in cooperation with the spirit as it brings into the physical.

To what you dream will come, and all that is expected, is to be expected!

Always thinking, always dreaming, always living, always breathing, always seeing and feeling what the world has to offer and what you have to offer the world. As things constantly change life moves on, as time goes on you become wiser. In patience things will be revealed, just listen to what that small voice inside your head has to say. Think about what is going on around and what you want. Possibilities are infinite, the key is to find out who you are and then find the balance with in. Remember what your dreams are and know that you are capable of achieving them.

It might seem as if a dream is like a fantasy story were you can go to a different world and see great things happen yet it remains a fantasy, then come back to a reality that tells you what you can or cannot do. They manipulate you to their will saying there is a set way of doing things and you have to do it. 

How many people don't enjoy what they are doing, yet day after day they submit themselfs to the hardships and pain staking jobs? There is hope out there, that hope lays in you, realising that every individual is capable of doing what ever they desire. You see all that is left is to do what ever it takes, no excuses, we are not all equal, yet we are unique. It is time to bring out your talents, your likes and not limit your self to one thing. Ask your self what is your dream?? Who are you? Are you willing to do what it takes to live the life that was meant for you??

- Cator McClung-

At the end of 2008 two very unique individuals set out on a journey that would change their lives for ever. Having submerged themselves deep within the waters of the unknown they began their travels on the pacific coast of Mexico, where they landed in an artistic haven, a place where their minds and bodies and spirits would be placed to the test. They remained there as if fixed in time for the next step on the quest for greater musical and artistic expression. And as if by magic they were launched onto the streets of Los Angeles, with their hearts in their hands and the passion required to fulfill the dreams to be manifest.
This day they reside hidden within the wills and the ways of beautiful Santa Monica, California, revealing their story still unfolding and aligning their art with the people of this planet, the real essence of humanity. You can find them at times on the 3rd Street Promenade or on some unique platform entertaining the masses with what was made in moments unheard of before.

These are the days when Legends are made, and we all are Legends of our own device...
