Hangin @ Next Space doin my thing
Mornin coffee by Lulu cafeteria. Wireless by Nextspace. Thinkin by me. I bonded with numerous freelancers at NextSpace on Cooper Street until the afternoon. Funny, that I was introduced as the German, cause that would not cross over much in Germany, where everyone always asks: where you from? The buzz in the lounge area was positive and its exactly that what will make freelancers and entrepreneurs succeed in tough economic times: vision and positivity.
I was guest of Awake Media, a company that specialises in new media and new consciousness for the planet. http://awakemedia.com/aboutnar.html
I had a mellow and fruitful afternoon, made some skype calls to L.A. and found out about the chances for a new docu competition that opens up next month. I wonder what IDA www.documentary.org has in store for the next season of festivals and promotion.
In the evening we were hangin out for a birthday jam with Michael, an old friend of Lakshmi. The little tea house proofed to be a time capsule, and had nothing to do with the tea partys, it felt rather that some of our conversations were straight up ‘68, when the hippies revolted against the system and wanted to change the world. Of course an entire generation impacted the world from this coast, but got also fried by drugs. If time is a loop, then this time the revolution will be streamlined on your ipad - without the mushroom trippin on your cloud. The semantic web speaks yogish. Lets see where we compute from here.
