G20VOICE: My overreaching agenda

26 Mar

I will exhibit (from the G20 in London, 1-3 April, 2009) my non-existent skills through several LIVEBROADCASTWEBCASTS, i.e abuse of all free platforms available to mankind.
I will prey upon unsuspecting economists & general staff, and drag them in front of the webcam to ensure some shop talk. I aim to pleasure a terrified audience.
No doubt that CURVAS TV will give the term ‘reality show’ a new meaning. All in Shakespeare’s & Cervantes’s lingua.
My main hub for CURVAS TV (LIVE!) will be this blog.
However, plan B is:
MAIN CURVAS TV @ Mogulus
And if that one also fails,
LIVE CURVAS TV @ USTREAM
Taped BROADCAST can be seen at:

CURVAS TV @ VIMEO

CURVAS TV @ Youtube

G20VOICE: The whimpy Bio

26 Mar

So, I was instructed to submit a short bio to G20VOICE. Needless to say, bios are always a mortifying experience.

Born in the Southern Hemisphere but raised in Scandinavia, Montserrat Nicolas lives her consultant life in Washington DC with her kid and long-suffering mate. Since 2005, she combats the notorious lack of information on hemispheric affairs in Latin America through her blog CURVAS POLITICAS. A simple blog that demands more accountability from ‘the powers that be’, and pushes for a real space for women in politics. She’s a columnist for LA NACION, and somehow (between her more boring communications strategies and regional analysis) wrote a book, which looks at the differences among poets, politicians and intellectuals. She is a true believer in the galactic swapping of knowledge, and in clogging up the googleian memory with hard facts.”

CURVAS TO THE G20

26 Mar

I’m still in shock over the invite I got from the folks at G20Voice, to participate at the G20 Summit in London April 2.

I will take part in what seems to be a “unique access to meet and put questions to leading thinkers, politicians, policymakers and high profile activists“, and “report” back my always irreverent observations to the happy guys surfing the Web.

I think I done pretty much nothing to deserve this, but will do my best.
