Connecting youth worldwide in real time
CONNECTING YOUTH WORLDWIDE IN REAL TIME MEDIA
... Ultimately, we are laying a foundation for future education and global leadership.

Linking via satellite from their classrooms, students share their culture, customs, curriculums, and concerns with their new friends in other countries, in real time with satellite technology. Learning and friendship begins, then flourishes, through continued communication and project collaboration on our website. They discover how to impact their world by aligning values, goals, and dreams with each other.

Currently in the works is our documentary film: 
 "The Power to Connect Through Music & Celebration"

The language of music is the common currency bringing together students from Rio de Janeiro and New Orleans. These are the special ones who embody a legendary lineage of musical heritage, cultural tradition, and community pride. They reveal compelling stories of life's gritty raw materials, transformed into unique group and self-expression. Firmly rooted in two distinctive communities, they're about to branch out on a virtual voyage beyond borders. We see them engaging each other via satellite link-up, displaying musical talents, school projects, and celebrating local culture. The film climaxes with a first ever live, trans-national jam session!

After the film, we continue with project collaborations for the students on our website. The partnership creates a musical group with an exciting new hybrid form of music. This kinetic blend of young, enthusiastic, gifted musicians launches a career path for them – worldwide concert tours, music DVDs, and related merchandising sales, springing from the feel-good story of the film.
