A Message to my Subscribers ... and The NY Anarchist Film Festival

Partially due to the NEW dangers inherit in reporting 1st hand accounts of dissent and corruption, independently, in a fascist society and partially due to my perception of the rapidly changing world of online video... This site's going to be a lot different from here out. I am currently working on a new video show concept and hope to have a new site and show for your enjoyment in a month or 2. I wish it could be sooner but there are many details to work out. This is gonna be cool and you can play along at home. ;!)

Vlog~Flux will continue on with more frequent posting and fewer original videos. There are a ton of quality, truthful programs available to us on the internet these days but It seems that a Mentos & Coke mentality has taken over the minds of the general online video consumer. Vlog~Flux will be a place for cultural, documentary and news video that intend to inform you of your place in history and help you decide what you are comfortable doing to help shape the future by exposing you to evidence and stories that show the under belly of corporatism, nationalism, fundimentalism, rascism & capitalism. (other isms may also be addressed). Basically, expect a post every day or 2, very few will be my Original deProgramming and feel free to get excited about the new "Show" you'll be among the 1st to watch in a month or so.
~ Thanks for subscribing, Flux
