Commune is a movement of artists, designers, musicians and folks that
take a stand against tobacco corporations and their presence in the
scene. Every month they host an event with a local band, DJ,
designer and artist at Commune Wednesdays. I got to be their featured artist last Wednesday at Signal Kitchen.
They had Com Truise and other great DJs and a photo booth! So many people came out to this show and boogied down.
This campaign is
called “Feed Need Not Greed” and will help raise awareness about world
hunger caused by the tobacco industry. They chose 3 local
vendors from each of the Commune cities (San Diego, San Francisco and
Burlington) and I won for Vermont!
So they flew their video guy, Kevin, out from San Diego to film me in this featurette. We had just
gotten back from Costa Rica and I was 2 days into a bad cold, luckily
you can't really tell! I got to choose the music: Antibalas N.E.S.T.A (Never Ever Submit to Authority) an appropriately titled song and a fun and funky background sound. Kevin did an amazing job editing it all together.
The potential prizes for the finalist round are: 1st - $750, 2nd -
$500, 3rd - $250. Commune will donate
$1 per vote up to $1,000 to neverendingfood.org to go towards projects that help alleviate and/or contribute to healthy crops among tobacco growing communities in Malawi, Africa. So please vote!
Thank you! xoxo
