I have a side project, My Country of Illusion, which has been ongoing for about ten years with my music and artistic collaborator, Barnmaster Scud. Last summer T.Foley from the Center for Contemporary Art in Santa Fe, NM invited us to be guest artists for the day. Her students made this fun little video for the track, “Dreaming America,” from our album, American Dream Life.

Multimedia Curriculum
Now available, Antonio's health and media literacy CDROM curriculum for youth of color, Merchants of Culture. This valuable resource contains dozens of video and print examples of how advertisers market harmful substances such as alcohol and tobacco to various niche audiences, including Native Americans, Latinos, African Americans, Asians, GLBT and Women. This is an excellent primer for introducing the subject of cultural marketing to high school and middle school students. This is also a great product for health professionals and councilors working in the area of prevention.
