Urban Peacock: Editor's Note

Hi, welcome to our evolving site, a virtual world created for your imagination to feast upon. We have fellow Urban Peacocks from around the world who check in regularly to catch the latest on how we can utilize creativity, design, and humanity in our daily lives to better understand each other and our journey here.

What Urban Peacocks are Made of:

We welcome you to our playground for conceptual adventurers consisting of individuals and families, designers, artists, poets, philosophers, research scientists, educators, inter-generational, world affair and public policy experts as well as the thoughtful, independent filmmakers of our times.

If you thrive on deciphering conceptual labyrinths, visual puzzles and life's riddles. If you enjoy simple truths and have a thirst for the arts, knowledge and understanding. If you are a peaceful humanitarian and enjoy healthy, multi-perspective debates. If you strive to push the limits of innovative thinking in a way to help people understand information or the world around us through your own or shared creative vocabularies.

If you find peace, wisdom and power from nature and can always see the good in people around you. If you believe beauty comes from within and is something to be nurtured in society. If you find helping others comes naturally and causes your spirit to dance. If you believe you can hear music with your eyes and paint with sound. If you don't mind stumbling before a huge crowd and can find solace in the touches of humor sprinkled throughout our lives. If you prefer human drama over reality tv, quality over quantity, personal truths over the latest trends. If you thrive on adventure, simplicity and truth.

If you are an independent thinker. If you often find yourself following a different path from the crowds around you, then you have described our Peacock Community of Urban Peacocks from around the world :) Welcome and enjoy your visit. Join the Peacock Community

Small: Our philosophy is to keep the crew small, to allow for maximum speed & mobility in production, costs to a minimum and to maintain a unified articulation of the cinematic vision.

Multi-ethnic: We believe in multi-ethnic crews that share their individual cultural perspectives to further the reality of the stories created.

Innovative: We know the rules and aren't afraid to cross camera lines and experiment in new narrative techniques of storytelling in the name of artistic adventure.

Diplomatic: The key to our team is a shared passion for the story being told; respect for all crew members; patience, integrity and a desire to create something together that will stop people and help us think or feel in a new way about the fragility of life and the power of truth. We maintain an alcohol and drugfree set, however caffeine is our friend.

Since 2000, when we started our online presence, the nature of our content has evolved in some wonderful ways. We are now in the process of updating our User Interface Design system to account for the growth and also to add more resources that would be of interest to our Peacock Community. The new design shall continue to evolve throughout the years.

Since the community aspect of this site is a pet project, time is often the deciding factor in how often we are able to update our content. Sometimes we update the site everyday, other times it may be a week in-between, so check back often to catch the latest. We have creative and thoughtful individuals from across the globe that visit us regularly. In our own small way we are building our dream of a virtual United Nations, defining ourselves through the universal nature of creativity.

If you have an event that you feel should be included and is not, please email us (kavita@urbanpeacock.com) or just drop us a line to let us know what you think of the site and any suggestions. We welcome your insights in building this Peacock community. Thanks for visiting. We hope you've enjoyed your visit.
