Interesting day. First my phone went completely awry and couldn't use it all day. I thought I had to buy a new one immediately. Then at 6:30 PM it began receiving a signal. Let's see if it was just a temporary problem given there were tornado winds that swept through the region last night and perhaps Towers were affected. To pass the time I re-entered the world of You Tube and have set up a Private channel to store the footage for the upcoming documentary Rocker Roller Rican and perhaps release the finished work both on pay per view Vimeo and You Tube (by the way BLIP TV sent me a nice check for the WEPAwebTV stations we shut down.) The organizing of the 3000+ DVD's I completed this weekend has put me on a path of structure very different from my early forays into creating web content. You Tube wants to be the new TV. As such, my professional experience in Broadcast television (and the experience producing the Latin NY Salsa Explosion) is guiding me back to my true Producer qualifications. I can truly say all the elements have come together so I can create the quintessential piece summing up the 38 years since I went professional in 1975 with the Alliance of Latin Artists and our Ronald Chaluisan, Luis E Figueroa Jr Al Brizuela ADORACION Dance Company in NYC. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwNEbUMo9jMSsX84uh0-fmA

Art does not grow out of thin air. http://www.reverbnation.com/luischaluisan/songs It is the summation of one's life experience and education. I have been fortunate to have been trained to observe, memorize and archive the world around me not for personal gain but as being part of the Latino Experience in America. And at this moment I have organized the process by using the tools that ReverbNation provides (1964-Present) that follow the steps from first waking up to the realization that I was a part of and not apart from the nation around me. And as such I have 180 moments captured in audio, video, art and pictures where I am sharing the Good, The Bad and the Ugly with you all not only as a Nuyorican from The Bronx but as an Eyewitness to History.

Dedicated to Ronald Chaluisan and Ana Chaluisan
Young Lord Minister Of Culture Eddie Figueroa 1977:
“The Arts is the vehicle we're going to use to illustrate this transition we must undergo in order to advance. When the artist is in touch with his art and its really happening something else is happening. A heavy spirit comes through that is bigger than the musicians or artists creating them. We want to experience that more, study it, articulate it and get the information out."
