And it’s still alive and kicking, as you’ll see, carrying a deeper meaning, inspired, as always, by something I firmly believe in: the sense of community.
Community as human beings, community as artists.
The goal? To connect beyond geographical boundaries, with creativity, independence, and quality as the only passports required.
Back in the day, "The Positive Ghetto" had some ties to a previous project called euskir’s music.
While this new version isn’t structured as a nonprofit, the core idea remains: balance. Investments, not expenses.
Lately, watching the independent music market go up in flames (no need to name a specific streaming service, most of them are just slightly different shades of bad), I felt the urge to bring "The Positive Ghetto" back, stronger than ever.
Now, I don’t expect you to know me from my past cultural projects.
But hey, if you’re curious, feel free to check out my LinkedIn Profile, dig around my online presence, you might find some pleasant surprises. And if that’s not enough, just ask the amazing people I’ve met along the way.
So, how do we get this rebirth rolling?
Two simple ways.
One, old school: PayPal donations.
The other, a little more fashionable: grabbing an NFT from "The Positive Ghetto" collection on OpenSea.
But at the end of the day, it’s the same mission as always: connect art and artists, push for creativity and independence, and never, ever compromise on quality.
I’ve got forty years of experience in communications, advertising, marketing, cultural affairs.
Yes, I’m carrying some fantastic (and sometimes weirdly specific) skills in my luggage.
Need advice? Want to join me on this ride?
I’m here. I’m easy to find. The internet makes sure of that.
Oh, and about the title, no, it’s not a cheap clickbait trick.
AI, to me, is a symbol of our times.
You can use it wisely (a rare skill, I must say), or you can fall for the illusion of a fast and easy road to success.
I’d rather focus on something real, even in my wildest dreams.
So here’s my invitation: let’s keep art and culture safe, accessible, and alive, not just for today, but for the years to come.
