Linqua Franqa
Hip-hop linguist/activist/Ph. D student, Athens, GA
“Linguistically speaking, Linqua studies hip-hop patterns and tools, such as slant rhymes and syllables per second, but what she finds most interesting is “the way hip-hop language kind of flips the traditional value system upside down.”

Knomad – Skai Johnson aka Knomad is a prolific movement artist that specializes in the genre of hip hop. Hailing from Los Angeles, CA this accredited young talent graduated from California State University Northridge with a BFA in Dance Performance and Minor in Dance Education. After graduating, having graced many stages in LA (including the hit cable TV show So You Think You Can Dance), performing in music videos/commercials, and even an audition into Julliard, Skai took a step back from the disorienting big city life to assess his own philosophies in life and find a way to translate those messages through dance and other art. This landed him in the small, serene, and quite town of Bellingham, WA where the introspective and out spoken persona Knomad was born.
