Cid 1021

Cratedigging music heads in Tokyo. Online video obsessives in Mexico City. Cosplaying comic nerds in Berlin. Sore-thumbed gamers in L.A. who promise to sleep just as soon as they complete this level. All at your service.

Welcome to 1021 Creative.

Our band of carefully vetted and trained pop-culture freaks apply their knowledge and intuition to your content, metadata, and algorithms. The results include playlists, posts, and improved algorithmic recommendations, all delivered on-time, on-budget, and up to your highest standards.

Yes, we're compassionate artists, DJs, writers, musicians, and collectors. But our approach to curation and content marketing values technology and metadata as much as taste and talent. We balance art with algorithms and use real-world data to create experiences that build trust, build revenues, and build brands.

We've learned first-hand to value the insights and scalability that data and algorithms can offer, and we've worked with them enough to know that they need constant care and feeding to work well. 1021 Creative's team can work with your data to clean it up and add the kind of context, intuitive spark, and editorial nuance that other humans connect with (and that can't be replicated by artificial intelligence ... yet).

Need a music curator in Korea? We're there. How about a team in Mexico to make sure your personalization algorithms are bueno? We got one. Want to keep some 1021ers on-site? Done. With more than 80 pop-culture preachers working in 15 different countries, 1021 Creative is wherever you need us to be, able to scale up for one-off projects or long-term initiatives.

We ask a lot of questions. Get used to it. Our curiosity is a constant. We want to learn everything we can about your company, its goals, what data matters to you and why. We want your feedback and your reactions. And once we put something out into the world we start asking questions all over again to measure its impact . . . and your satisfaction.

True stories: Our finances are managed by someone who flew to London for a Kate Bush show and chased down Noel Gallagher in a hotel bar. We also have a former record producer on staff who collects vintage synthesizers even though he's got plug-ins that perfectly replicate their sound. Then there's our climate change warrior whose commitment to the cause inspired one of our clients to launch an international initiative. 1021 Creative encourages all of it and more, knowing that when our team is free to indulge their passions, everybody reaps the rewards.

The 2024 SEIU 1021 Convention, taking place September 28 and 29 in Sacramento, will feature a variety of entertainment. The union is pleased to announce that the all-female group, Mariachi Bonitas, will be gracing the stage.

As we reflect on our wins and face new fights head-on, we must come together to create a plan to champion even better workplaces, tighter communities, and a more robust economy in Northern California. SEIU 1021 members must continue to be leaders in that fight. The convention is a time to strategize, energize, and organize for the future.

The threat of a widespread San Francisco city worker strike is officially over: Large supermajorities of members of SEIU 1021, the union representing over 16,000 city workers, have voted to ratify agreements reached with the City and County across three collective bargaining units.

Monday, November 6, the SEIU 1021 Executive Board held an urgent meeting after hearing concerns from dozens of members across Northern California about the need for the union to join labor unions and organizations around the world about the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

As we head into contract negotiations in 2024, we face pessimistic budget projections and corporations panhandling for more tax breaks that would further decimate funding for the vital public services we provide.
