DJs at Punto latino
After talking to the [Sevilla Acoge] Foundation (https://sevillaacoge.org/) about the suitability of generating events and synergies in the neighborhood during the workshop, Luis suggested the possibility of collaborating with the Nicaraguan Women's Association. We decided to develop a research with the students on music located in the neighborhood, music that we will incorporate in a DJ session that they will prepare to do live at the headquarters of the association, the Punto Latino restaurant.
Interviews
They interviewed Yesenia and Marisol, Luci, and Robert and Tomás who work in the restaurant, and by the way Luis from Sevilla Acoge and Hege and Victoria from RAWA also volunteered to be interviewed to compile possible songs that the students could play on the day of the DJ session.
We leave here the songs that emerged in the interviews, associated with memories of different moments in the lives of the people we talked to.
DJ session
In the previous session we were familiarizing ourselves with sound recording and interviewing techniques, practicing among the students themselves to collect songs that are meaningful to them.
To end the day, DJ Hidrataccioni gave us a great session, a perfect closure for a very exciting day for having been able to share this first experience with the students of the project, and looking forward to continue and see where the process takes us until the end of June..
