Santa Cecilia Acatitlan pyramid, Tlalnepantla
Anthole? Children playground? Zen garden?

Santa Cecilia Acatitlan church, Tlalnepantla
That’s the reason for the harp on the altar: She is patron of music

Santa Cecilia Acatitlan and San Bartolo Tenayuca archaeologic micro-sites
On August 22, 2009, Pooka and Moni offered a visit to the archaeological mini-sites in Tlalnepantla, the municipality they live in in Estado de México, Northern part of Mexico City. More people were originally invited, but in the end, only Caro, Vicm3 and myself were able to attend. We had a very nice day, visiting Santa Cecilia Acatitlan and San Bartolo Tenayuca, two very similar sites with Chichimeca constructions and colonial churches. Tlalnepantla is a very strange municipality nowadays. Pooka explained us of its vast regional influence, until it gave way to Texcoco —and later Mexico-Tenochtitlan— as the dominant power....

San Bartolo Tenayuca, Tlalnepantla
Activities for the San Bartolomé Apóstol patronal festivities. Note the Mexican spelling of the Plaza Huichita ☺

San Bartolo Tenayuca pyramid, Tlalnepantla
One of the best displays of the Fuego Nuevo ritual, where every 52 years everything was rebuilt, reborn — even pyramids

San Bartolo Tenayuca church, Tlalnepantla
Looks quite similar from the outside, but from inside, it was clearly more important than Santa Cecilia

Apache in Plaza Wichita, San Bartolo Tenayuca, Tlalnepantla
Oh, so that is the explanation. A little bit of Wichita in Tlalnepantla.

And here I go again: MiniDebConf Central America RFC
Some people never learn to stay out of trouble. Not only that, some people seem to have a desire to run into trouble at every possible ocassion. It appears I am one of such people. I won’t rewrite this whole proposal in English — Its focus is after all a Spanish-speaking community. Anyway, the Central American Free Software-related lists have been reshuffled/resetup, and I cannot yet find the public archives (which will exist, I am sure). I talked about this idea with several Central American friends during ECSL and shortly afterwards. Later, at DebConf, I talked it over with fellow...

El CLIC — First Latin American Encounter on Free Knowledge and Licensing
I stumbled across El CLIC Of course, I submitted a work for participation (if you are curious, a more evolved version of the Free Software for the Construction of a Democratic Society work I have been working on with Alejandro Miranda sincle last year as part of our Seminar on the Collective Construction of Knowledge — But that’s a different advertiseme^Wstory). I will translate here a couple of paragraphs of the CLIC presentation: During the weeks between September 14 and 30 this year, the First Latin American Encounter on Free Knowledge and Licensing will be held. The encounter aims at...
