I'm Lucía I'm 33 years old, I studied anthropology, photography and physical education, I worked so hard the radio communications area all over my country with rural communities like kids from indigenous and family farmers for almost 8 years, I always wanted to developed the same in my city with my culture kind.
I'm in love with free self expresion, one big reason why i got a lot of tattoos and i like to change my hair very often. i am part of a Social and Sports Club in Buenos Aires called La Cultura del Barrio, its a special place for kids of all the urban tribes where they can play with their bands and practice some sports where you can find box, muay thai, jiu jitsu, personal defense, yoga and tango. In fact i am working more the communications area than sports there. A year ago we started a team to work a Radio Online to put a diary voice to the activities and sharing with clubs all over the world which we are in touch.
Today our scene has raised a lot and between the needs that we have the radio area to hear our voices is a good project to produce and share our lifestyle. We are against capitalism so one of our favorite activities in adittion to music and sports are popular markets where we support the sales and the consume of our communities, like cooperativismo as a way to fight the struggle of the political economies consequences. This is happening in thee heart of Buenos Aires, my home. 
We are connected to sporty experiences in other countries so my project is traveling to register by photos, videos and radio interviews with brothers where we can be share and known about our different contexts and experiences, while we build our radio in our club in Buenos Aires . 
Now it's been 9 weeks since I left my job, my people and Buenos Aires to get in touch with the project on my own and start to learning as producer, photographer and journalist the access to this places, to share information eachother. I'm now in need to increase my own equipment and start to push the project from the outside.
