Poch[o]tec@ as (Re)appropriator of Technology

Putting the Tech@ in technology
As a part of the tec@ that this blog performs, I experimented with visual representations of pochismo. I've mention Bill Nericcio in a post post, but the images on his Tex[t]-Mex blog have always been extremely inspirational. With that said, I see the performance of the poch[o]tec@ as a new media mestiz@, renaming the Franco-filia flâneur for a Xikan@ identity.

Twitter has been an interesting new/social media site for poch[o]tec@ practice, but the motivation for this post was my amateur (re)appropriation of images as a demonstration of pocho agency.
The "So Cal" is a nod to the geographic space of Califas that mi amigo Tejano Andy Besa says breeds a different kind of Mexican.
