Last weekend, me and my girls went to the Graffiti Box Jam at Yaam. Lotsa people painting, dance battles, lotsa music and fun in the sun - I had a great time! Not enough girls for my taste though, there was a pretty macho kind of athmosphere, but I know Dennis is working on that and next year there will be more women involved.

STREETFILES STREETFILES

I just became a member at Streetfiles.org and am planning on uploading a whole bunch of photos there. Check it out!

Streetfiles.org is an independent Street Art & Graffiti photo community. It was launched on July 20th in 2008 and is the successor of graffitinet.com. Its aim is to document the movement of street art, graffiti and art in public space with the support of its users.

A very unique tool is that pictures are being valuated by how popular and up-to-date they are. This creates a mixture of editorial supervision and user-performance. In this way not only the dimension of this global urban movement is shown, but also its quality. The photos get commented and evaluated by Streetfiles members. The lively exchange and a unique rating system (interesting and new photos are featured) is addictive. Streetfiles is free of charge without any restrictions. On May 8 in 2009 the 100.000th photo was uploaded.

NAWTEE NEEK ON TOUR!

NAWTEE NEEK ON TOUR!

Dear friends! I am writing to you from Guatemala.
I am travelling Central America at the moment and that is also the reason, why some of your emails have gone unanswered. The internet connection here doesn't always work and if it does, it is very very slow. I will not be back before July, so if I don't answer your email for a while it might have not reached me, so please resend!
If you want to know where I am and what I am doing, you can check my travelblog.

Peace out!

RED BULL BC ONE BLOG

RED BULL BC ONE BLOG

Buenos días amigos y amigas of the B-Boy lifestyle. Some of you might already know, that I am doing the Red Bull BC One blog. We are doing it monthly now. Last month we had an interview with Lil Ceng and this month I posted a story on B-Boying in Mexico. We thought that while I’m here, I might as well let you know a little bit about B-Boying in Mexico and Central America. That is also the reason, why I was so late with the blog entry, there was so much going on and the internet connection is a catastrophe!

The plan was to stay in Mexico for 2 or 3 weeks and then go on to Belize and the rest of Central America, but I ended up spending 2 months in Mexico! I really have fallen in love with that country. The food is great, the people are super nice and there is so much to do. I went to several Hip Hop events, dance festivals and B-Boy practices. I met with quite a few crews and asked them about their lives as B-Boys and B-Girls in Mexico. Check it out!

At the moment I am in Guatemala. Will go to Belize from here, then to Honduras, El Salvador, and so on. If you have any contacts for me in Central America, please connect us! Don't have any contacts in Belize yet!

All The Ladies Say

All The Ladies Say

“All The Ladies Say” is a film that highlights the lives of six iconic female street dancers from San Jose, Atlanta, Miami and Chicago, who have carved a niche in the physically challenging, male dominated breakdance world. Discussions about motherhood, sexual tension, femininity versus masculinity and the rap industry/mainstream images are a few of the themes explored by the documentary’s main characters. International dancers not only make appearances but also add their two cents about life as a B Girl in the Hip-hop world.
“All The Ladies Say” is a documentary project driven by grant funding and donations from people who believe in the project. If you can help reach the funding goals to complete production, market the film and create educational outreach programs, please contact: info@alltheladiessay.com
Please support this great project and check out Roka's website:
