On 10/15/20, Natasha Hernandez (DJ Heavyflow) and I presented at Northwest Vista College through Zoom on our processes of curating musical selections within the politics of identity, consciousness, and location. Here is a link to "Tejana Forever" my Spotify playlist curated to continue engagement beyond the presentation. Gracias to Dr. Lee Ann Epstein for inviting me to my FIRST academic panel ever.
Heartfelt gratitude and love to Regina for dreaming up this artwork to commemorate our presentation!
Link to video coming soon!

@HelloReg closed out 2020 for us,
and that is cause for celebration!
My grandmother had a set of four Alphonse Mucha posters in her home that my mom bought for her when she was a teenager. My grandma was very glamorous and smart and sometimes very troubled, but I see this commision as a nod to her influence on me artistically and a tribute to the idea of INHERITANCE, both what we choose to accept and what we choose to let go.
That whole idea of intergenerational trauma vs. intergenerational joy? This poster is a tribute to the joy part.

For the 8th month of Siempre Verde @evergreengardentx I asked Lenzy Mora @penzlenz to reimagine the classic Agua de Florida bottle, South Texas style, to reflect what spinning records means to me: it’s a blessing, an offering, a sacred act. Bottled Agua de Florida anoints and refreshes and blesses, and in the 1800s, they advertised it as a perfume linked to the Fountain of Youth, but fuck that, I want a Fountain of Healing. Our beautiful borderlands, our magic Valley, our gorgeous San Anto. Healed.
Lenzy Mora is a multidisciplinary artist born and raised in San Antonio, Texas.

After ten years DJ-ing professionally, prolifically, and with panache, I decided I needed an official logo.
Linda was the obvious choice, and I am always so honored when she says YES to my commissions.
Yet again, we worked so well together. She listened to my vision, made it her own, and then gracefully included my revision suggestions such as the cloudy sky motif on the vinyl record (it was gray at first).
I had holographic stickers printed immediately.
