Thank you for considering your participation with ecopalooza and be a part of my biggest art project to date. Anything bigger then this would be intergalactic and with our combined Mojo (with a lil bit of good Jujus'), i believe that we can have an event that rocks out (regardless of the size) to the theme (eco+music+art) simultaneously in 4 continents! Now tell me if you have ever seen a fuNkier project then this - dont answer that, it was not a question. Moving on, this will be our first meeting on this subject matter. Depending on our individual internet connection, i hope we can achieve our individual objectives and avoid dragging the meeting longer then necessary. In the event that one or some (hopefully not all) of you decided to pull out for any reason, please carry the torch around and pass it to the best candidate that you can. To prevent this, please communicate and share with me your concern and dilemmas - so we can work it out. With enough determination and interest, i believe that we can, will and should have an intercontinental event this May which is free from corporate sponsor and free to public and free from the imaginary lines motivated by politics and national sovereignty. The unofficial cause for this project is to prove to the older generations that shit like passport and immigration or even national anthem will not be relevant anymore. Flags and pledge of allegiance alike, will be nostalgic and less practical and more spiritual. This is our opportunity to practice and demonstrate 'the wisdom of WE' at a global scale. Thank you again and hope to see you in less then 24 hours from now. Keep on keeping on and be well. Cheers!
