I sit down upon the ground to form the wall of silence. I watch the white car drive by for I can cry and let my dreams wash away. I have nowhere to go and no one's to blame. We are in search of Hope, today. She lost her way, upon the road, and I'm alone once again. Unable to disable the machine! The lunatics' on the run. Remember what I've seen. Let it bleed UCD. I have nowhere to go, and no one's to blame. We are in search of Hope, today. She lost her way, upon the road, and I'm alone once again. Nowhere to run, nowhere hide, no one to say goodbye, but I'm still alive. Occupy my mind with Hope.

We honor those who have taken time out to express their nonviolent opinions. Stand up for your rights. Sit down to be heard. We prepared an RFID music video message (Bulacard) to The President in silent protest. "Let it Bleed UCD" was inspired by Paul D. Miller aka The Book of Ice (‪http://www.djspooky.com) and Makana's Occupy with Aloha (‪http://www.yeslab.org/apec). The words "I sit down upon the ground to form a wall of silence. I watch the white car drive by for I can cry and let my dreams wash away" were written in response to the silent protest by the brave students who watched the Chancellor Katehi of UCD drive by after her public statement about the use of aggressive force to stop the Occupy UCD movement. Occupy my mind with aloha. Leave my body alone. Please support Occupy Davis, Occupy UC Davis, Right to Succeed, Over My Shoulder Foundation, and the Bulacard Mentorology Project.

We recorded a short video message to President Obama at Occupy HappyCo where hope and dreams are free. Additional video footage was taken at the Occupy UCDavis rallies in Davis, California. Links to the video file will be written on a self-addressed Bulacard that will be part of the Million Mentor March. Memories from the past can be instantly retrieved, displayed, and shared from the card using NFC cell phones such as the Nexus S running on Google's Android 2.3.4. Additional information about the project can be found at www.internetofexperiences.com. This video was filmed on scene in Kailua, Hawaii and Davis, California. The song "Let it Bleed UCD" was written and performed by Nikea and Monto. Additional music in the video was from the song entitled "We Are The Many" by Makana and from the "Terra Nova: Sinfonia Antarctica" performance by Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4BDkUKK2CM). Part of this video was sampled from the Occupy UC Davis video entitled "Police pepper spraying and arresting students at UC Davis" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmJmmnMkuEM) and video entitled "Pepper sprayed UC Davis student leads peaceful shaming of Chancellor" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDGRNg2vlGg). The ceramic sculpture was by Deborah Bridges (http://studiobridges.com).
