    I've started a website for performers in NYC

    I wasn't sure where this would fit, so I'm posting this thread in a couple of places. Sorry!

    Hi everyone,
    I've recently started a website, www.undercoverny.com. There are no commercials or membership fees, and it's not asking anyone to register, it's simply to showcase the talents of performers in New York City (preferably Manhattan; I'm on a bike!). The aim, eventually, would be to show tourists that New York's talents can be accessed for a $2 MTA ride, and these artists aren't beggars, they're professionals.

    Basically, I ride to meet (or chance upon) performers, dancers, musicians, painters and any other street artists with a camera, camcorder and digital audio recorder. I take footage, interview them (if they like), and upload them and their details onto the site, from which they can be contacted by others, or simply enjoyed. I have a map that shows where I bumped into people, so residents and tourists can see who's near.

    If anyone would like to be showcased on the website, please contact me at
    undercoverny@gmail.com

    Thanks!

    P.S., to see what I'm talking about, here are some pages:



    The following article has appeared in FBomb Magazine. Chen Cong, Subway Musician Your day hasn't gone well. Friday night you'd been swamped typing notes


    P.P.S., there are a couple of other things on the site that are my whims, which you can ignore.
