KIKI VALDES AT SOCIAL MEDIA WEEK (BOGOTA, COLOMBIA) 
Oct 2001- I was invited earlier this month to the wonderful country of Colombia in the city of Bogota for Social Media Week. There were so many amazing speakers and I got to connect again with my good friend from Kiip.me (Brian Wong).  I have to thank the amazing folks at Zemoga for making it possible. Special thanks to Tatiana Gonzalez, Camila Pedraza, DJ Edgerton, Brianna Campbell and everyone else from Zemoga 

While I was there I got to talk to a bunch of young Colombians about using social media to bridge the gap between art and communication online. It was a lot of fun. I also had a chance to create an action painting at one of Bogota’s amazing Juan Valdez Coffee locations. They were awesome and gave me so much love and so much…coffee! It was really cool how they invited me as an artist to share my experience. I got to talk about our blogging platform too (ownzee.com) which made me excited because I have never spoken publicly about our new venture. See you soon Bogota!
