hi such
good night as well but my passes
name is manuel angel round if any
of you recognize me possibly be
for making jokes of the government in
youtube or by going hungry on youtube
also generally if the people of the
street and he knows who I am they tell me two
things one is manuel do not fuck me and the
second
It’s usually asking me for a recipe
meat roasted base shell banana
they sidewalk but I’m just going to tell you more
forward that blackbird to dropper
I tell you this as a brief and
intimacy as a brief prelude to what
that I have come to ask you this afternoon because
I confess that it gave me anguish
terrible when they called me for
participate here today the fact when
Manuel completed the organizer of this
event and my namesake me to be out there
called a couple of weeks ago so that I
come here until valencia will speak
about how I brought him things
positive to my community and environment in
first instance I obviously felt
extremely flattered a talk entitled
please
secondly I felt seduced by
the idea of coming here in one night in
this expensive hotel that sure has the
breakfast included and with whom you have
included local
yes a good good good news
then but beyond that they cause me
terrible anguish because really that
I can contribute so much to my community
and sometimes I even forget to remember
how the dog when he took it out pepe gives me
too embarrassed to admit it
so I started trying to think about
in people the people that
they usually call to participate
in this type of talks and areas
generally they are ventures
super interesting business as
several of those who will see today
gentleman students of my artists
people stuck in the world of charity
people with the benevolence of the mother
Teresa of Calcutta and not exactly me
that I’m a chubby rocker who does
jokes on youtube to mother teresa is
that I almost jokes on youtube is not
basically what you came to
see here today however when I get
to spin my mind tells me
that maybe a party seen from me coming
here to talk about how he brought the
community when I do everything I do what
I do in the first instance because I
I like it
the vast majority of the things that I do
I do them because I love and unite
things there was that I was set on
light bulb said
and what if so what if boys
fact that of what they say of that yes
you work what you like not worked
No day is true, only my mom said
and what if we do what we do
we know how to do well we are already giving a
contribution to our community
what if you are passionate as a premise
very archaic very primitive for you
but that strength that has logic
maybe if what happens is the basis of everything
progress is that each one of us
we discover what we like and
let’s dedicate ourselves to doing better in that
every day he does not think he’s going to be so
Carlos Fraga today leave or will not be like this
rather I will raise with examples that
is what I’m here mentioning and what’s
to do with three examples of my life
labor
The first thing I want to talk about
of the foundation new bands
if you have any notion of what is the
foundation new bands thank you very much and
I do not mention it is an organization
non -profit that for almost now
30 years has worked to exalt the
national alternative talent the move
alternative of our country
this through concert talks
Conversations of book editions
disc editions and others
particularly the festival is known
new bands to the foundation new
bands sorry for the new festival
bands
the longest festival festival amal
Latin America in its format and a
festival in which we basically put to
play the best new bands of the
country
We take a tour around the country in
a kind of selection in
qualifiers to select which
are the bands that are going to play at
final to the festival new bands in
Caracas and then the festival
a jury decides which of those bands
seemed the best and is the winner of the
festival for a bit controversial the
East coast of Japan can not be everything
so boring if you have kept track what
what is the new festival and foundation
bands will then have passed
already the vast majority of bands
important in our country that we can
say they are working
internationally and that are deserving
of awards and nominations I’m talking about
from the invisible friends passing up
bohemian life and I’m short because
there are the cyanide candies
viniloversus are the innkeepers are
the fried tomatoes is rawayana been
kills and is an infinity of bands that
have gone through the history of the festival
and until the beautiful story but
also there let’s say certain
all brakes that are opposed to the process
it is no secret to anyone the crisis
economic that lives the country or if secret
for nobody and it’s not secret either
nobody that our country evidently
has a tendency towards music
tropical thing that is totally
understandable
this with the passage of time was putting
a brake on what was the work of the
foundation or janda particularly me
between the foundation at the end of the
first decade of this millennium if by
back in 2007 2008 at a time that
maybe it was gold for music
alternative existed concerts existed
sponsoring brands that pay you
groupings for concerts
there were premises that lend them their
enclosures to the bands so that
present there were the premises of what
that we call the music industry with the
time and with him
let’s say the economic crisis we went from
have gigantic and empty festivals
maybe adapt to bars and theaters and
in some extreme cases to simply
not have new bands festival
this instead of stopping them a lot was
a sort of incentive to
reinvent us
and when we say to make the band effective
this year we started thinking about how
we could go back to have that let’s
call the golden age of music
alternative
how could we start gestating all
the elements that make up an industry
musical to be able to have again that of
gold what are those public elements
bands but beyond that promoters
producers broadcasters journalists
dealers groupies all the elements that
form a music industry
all all then when we did the
circuits again this year that
tried to go through all the regions more
important in the country trying to
select these bands that were coming to
Caracas
we started to try to adapt
we went from having concerts in theaters
in bars in installments do then
concerts in corridors of centers
commercial
then what happens we put a black cloth
for Mrs. hairdressing us
scares with a metalhead playing and a
madness and we put the necessary backline
to be able to do the event
when we arrived at what was the festival
new bands in Caracas
that was a couple of months ago in the plaza
south altamira not only we dedicate ourselves to
make the festival as such is to say to
bring all the groups together
contestants and guests but also
for a full week
we had focused on playing let’s say those
elements that form the musical culture
alternative through discussions
talks workshops exhibitions
national rockera memorabilia
exhibitions of documentaries and all
those elements that little by little
they try to encourage a generation of
relieved to work for music
In Venezuela
this is a mapping more or less than the
Festival activity new bands
we had this is the plaza altamira south and
here are different points that
we had different activities of
talks and talks until
concerts to exhibitions and others
the gentleman who illustrates the photo the
Calvito the photo of Mr. Felix allueva
president of the foundation new bands
and who has with the festival giving the
face very much very much time
Felix makes an interesting parallel
between what was the beginning the
foundation new bands and what now
says it’s very similar
he started with this in 1985 and he said that
obviating the economic differences
the industry could be in a
stage similar to the current one is
lacking sleep off premises
producers of local bands that are
in Venezuela playing because all the
that mentions serratella were they are
in Venezuela playing and inciting and
move to new groupings that
they work for our music
he started doing that 1985 and he’s not
happening nothing but over time and
after losing a lot of money and
several courtships began to realize
that groups were born that will start
to move public and they started to be
those bases bands like feeling
dead disorder public shoe three
bands that were starting to be that
movement until we finally could
build that golden music
national alternative the foundation new
bands what you try to do then is
mold to let’s say it the way
uglier manipulate that generation of
relief that can work for and for
our music
then doing what we do
like to do well what music is
rockers pelosi hondo we were able to achieve
give a positive contribution to our
way and our way to our country
starting from the basic premise that
we do what we like and a little bit what
what we want
this is not the only example that I’m going
to comment I have two more I started with
pyrotechnic slogans of concerts and
madness
I’m going to pass a different one and then
start with another previous
and look, I studied social communication
for two main reasons number one
because there was much talk was given to how
you can realize and numbers because
I felt a very big disagreement with
the media of my country
with the media in general
particularly with television
I got frustrated, it bores me too much
in venezuela television be
only in two ways number one
banal or tasteless content where it matters
more how well you see yourself so be a
doll and not what he is saying and
when you do not invest valuable time in
television to see these characters
dancing, we only have the programming
of the state and it ‘s an infinite chain of
ideological movement very annoying
So bored
then uniting these premises I
when was the university work
for a page that is called is called
equilibri.net
and I told them that I wanted to do
television on the internet and I wanted
use a space to download
to say all the crazy things that I wanted
say
well this web was born is also a
stage of my life in which he wears a helmet
instead of hair and it was an opportunity
for me to relieve myself of things
that bother me the things that call me
attention
it all started obviously on the side
maybe more television more cultural more
pop but as a Venezuelan inhabitant
I have a couple of nonconformity
economic social policies I imagine
that you also then the program
was mutating more and more accelerated towards
the political side
it is for this reason that the bad news
but I’m going to nobody
the good news is that they only saw about
gentlemen of the company content but
that contained an agent that I admired
a long time ago because they are
the creators of the bipolar chigüire are
the creators of presidential island between
many other wonderful projects
who use humor sarcasm and
irony to make a complaint to leave a
precedent for us to see a ratico
he played good content called me
I did a casting an idea was presented
to present a project that we started to
develop
and so something was born that is called but
we have a country and so the joke was born
I tell them that when I go to the street I
they say do not fuck me nicholas mature
try desperately to prove
having skills for something has
changed
it’s about convincing us percussionist
now but we have homeland is a show of
political satire
currently going for its third season
today in fact in a little while the third
Christmas episode by the way
the radical opponent returns for those who
they are your fans and it is a fact that is
good initially serves us
To prove
obviously what can not be shown in
conventional means and beyond that
to try to understand that the
Venezuelan can see content
different than the one I presented
while you do but laugh
also make him think and all this
by or better showing the
wonderful and involuntary comedy that
the national media give us the
state means then with but
we have a country, I not only learned that but
that also the possibility of understanding
what can you do content that the
people to reflect in a way
more digestible more simple
there are people who tell me that this
helps you to spend your day to day and digest them
news of what happens there is only one
out of venezuela that tell me that this
it’s the only way you can see
the news of the country go lesson of
their news but it is what
happens and in fact the bipolar chigüire that
it’s the parent company just like the blog
of the but we have homeland it was
recently he was recently awarded
the international award vaclav hável
stop and creative science this is a
prize that is given to call it
companies and enterprises of people
that with creativity and without violence
support the struggle for freedom of
expression in authoritarian regimes
this is a prize that has been awarded to
the ladies in white in Cuba or
possible failures in russia
so what I try to tell you is
a page that make news of lie
and us what we say do not fuck with me
things do not seem absurd and what
we do because we like
we were able to give a small size to the
people who only enjoy our country to
the people that internationally see
this as a way to find out what
it really happens in our country but not
It is the only option, either, what am I going to
show I have I have another one and I’m going let’s say
the highest production at the lowest
production began with the concerts
now I’m talking about television in
internet lie I do it with a chrome and
a simpler camera and now I’m going to
move on to talk about something much more
much Moroccan guerrilla in 2016
I think there is a very important topic of conversation
very in vogue in the sobremesas
meetings and this was the difference in
our food that because of the
crisis that lived the classes we are not
feeding in a highly
peculiarly very different from the one
we are used to that call me
a lot of attention and also calls the
attention the good the absurd
economic inflation that we have in
particular what could be the cost of
the basic basket and what was the salary
minimum the Venezuelan
then with some friends in Caracas
from a production company called the
resort
we started to chew the idea of seeing
what way could we present this
problematic but a way that was a
both simpler and more digestible than not
give them wanting to sleep the minute
medium and that did not seem so annoying
as a documentary of the bbc
it occurred to us to raise the
problem in this way
I do not like the word and here I am
happy with me towers on the bench
also highlight two above the place and
supports and I like for the street but for
see how he sees her like nobody else I have to
raise issues judged and condemned to
four years still and it makes it
silver gold but I have a pending magician
that what they just left was on time
see the housing trailer the minimum one
documentary made completely like
guerrilla that we are in August 2016
and the documentary in which I learned to be
the recipe for roasted meat shell
Silver say they are not the end of the show
I have no problem , I share them
the recipe but beyond that was a
audiovisual experiment of which I
I tried to feed for a week
with the equivalent of seven salary
days of a common Venezuelan for that
moment for that moment by the beach or
that for that moment here
ok the Venezuelan minimum wage is in
33 thousand 636 bolívares July 2016
we live that amount 30 of
between 30 that only if a month ago in the
we multiply by 7 that only seven days
of the week
that gave us the 7 thousand 800 bolívares with
which I tried to feed myself
for a week and with which
right now I could buy a chocolate
cheap cheap do not even hear hey
the fact is that with the documentary yes what
they saw may know what good survives
based on sardines that almost gives me a
overdose of mango that robbed me in
petare that had a spiritual rebirth in
a temple hare krishna
all that you can see the documentary but
but beyond that it was in our
way to present a problem
very serious economic and very
difficult to explain better perspective
more real more direct more genuine more
experiential and that maybe it’s only made
Smile in the process of seeing her
then it was our way of doing
what we like to see what could be achieved
a contribution to our country then
in fact the documentary led me to turn
to give interviews to media
international
I was giving interviews to Latin America
in the united states in spain this in cnn
being secretly in underwear
you know this but I did not have
pants
this is true that they have pants a
only via compadre pa lante also
homemade skype you could
the fact that you can speak to a great
part of the world of a problem that
live my country and I think that everything I did
based on my passion for my work and
what I try to do the best
can
then I do not want to come here they are the
collective more altruistic the philanthropist of
done I have like three ex girlfriend that
I can assure you that he is a person
credible but beyond that I want
leave him as a loan and as a way of
give back the fact that I’m going to eat
a great breakfast this morning that
maybe if we do what we know how to do
well in one way or another in a mind
We can bring you positive changes in
our community is what I think of
me what can we do so I invite you
to find that the moves
in the area that is not communication
which is mine but each one in its
professions and maybe they can
do it right they were going to be a citizen
model because very few in this country and
beyond that they will be able to realize
that doing what they know how to do well
can give you positive changes in your
I invite you to do so
thank you very much for listening to me good
night
the cans
