soft plans is about letting go of the need to control the future and makin love out of whatever is in front of u in the moment.

tomorrow Tuesday we begin a new experiment for LAS CALIFORNIAS.
A collaboration between @tulengua.lens and......
2 artists every month, one from the US side, one from the Mexico side.
We are here to melt borders and highlight the boundless creativity in our cross-border region.
Every month will be different. Sometimes visual, sometimes music, always groovy.
Anyone who goes full borderless and collects BOTH drops will be in a community pool where we'll be gifting physical prints of the drops, live show tix, merch, all the fun things.
viva la musica.
FIRST TWO ARTISTS ARE @happyxsnacks.lens in Tijuana and @worldclassy.lens in San Diego 💜
every second Tuesday of the month for all of 2023, we will be celebrating LAS CALIFORNIAS, melting borders, the humanity we share beyond divisions.
Every month we will do a tulengua-inspired NFT drop with two artists: one from the US side of the border, and one from the Mexico side of the border. We aim to uplift the rich creativity that blooms on both sides of the most crossed border in the west.
anyone who collects BOTH drops (US and Mexico artists) will be eligible for a delicious buffet of perks and goodies, leading up to the WELCOME TU LAS CALIFORNIAS music festival in the fall.
WE BEGIN TUESDAY, JANUARY 10th 💜
follow @tulengua.lens if you love unity and groovy music
we are all just getting started. this perspective gives me life.
never-ending opportunities to begin anew. infinite potential.
the bass is a bridge between the melody and the rhythm.
music is a bridge between the tangible and the intangible.
my band is a bridge between mexico and america.
I like bridges.

WELCOME TU LAS CALIFORNIAS '22
a weekend with tulengua and friends
artists from both sides of the border in one place.
we are just getting started.
a couple of weeks ago, we held our first ever binational x web3 music festival across the border in tijuana and valle de guadalupe.
our aim is to melt the borders between us and celebrate our shared humanity. to soften our fear of the unknown and cultivate interdependence.
the vision is to build this into a binational SXSW in the coming years.
WELCOME TU LAS CALIFORNIAS.
many stories, videos, and music from the artists who make up our region will be shared in the coming months. if you are interested in the most interesting region on earth, where people from all over the world come seeking dreams and a better life, stay tuned ;)
we dont need a ringo, we got ableton #borderbeatles
