BLOG 2 - The Best Concert/Holiday Ever

Hi people, today i want to talk about the best holiday i ever had in my life yet, hopefully.

So i had a itch i wanted to scratch off, ever since a cousin of mine invited me to travel south on bike, bikepacking as some call it, not having the equipment at the time gave me a clear goal to get it, to have some fun.

first trip

After that i got into Arts, there i met a bunch of good friends, everyone one of them from outside of Santiago, that pumped me up to go there and visit them when we were out of the city for the holidays. I prepared myself and went alone from Santiago to Puerto Montt, with the idea of filling out a sketchbook with watercolors while traveling.

So on the morning of the sixth of January i took off heading towards Rancagua, my first destination, it took me all day getting there. i was been expected by natives from the zone, where they show me the local cuisine and the recreational activities they partook in. After that, resumed my trip going from small town to small town, marveling at the central zone's countryside, strawberry fields, saltworks, overcoming hills and elevated surfaces, going through kind of forgotten roads, all of this is part of the adventure, and is so fun, but there always comes the end of the day when i got to find shelter, or a place to put up my tent, and there the elements sometimes are not welcoming.

    As a Rancagua native, I can ensure it was amaizing having you as guest, when you arrived almost nine o'clock at night, you looked like a cool marcian with special clothes and we couldn't believe that humans have the capacity to travel all day long in a bycicle (on a 30 degrades day of summer!) you should come back the next summer (or I shoul train myself to be able to ride to the south with you)

BLOG 3 - My dream job

        Hello class, today I'm going to talk about my dream job. So, I study Visual arts, i  feel that this work field is full of opportunities in the sense that i can work with anything and everything i want, just put my mind to it and being methodical enough to make sense of the mess in my head. but it is always interesting to try and think about working in a specific field, develop my skills with a instrument, a tool, like a photo camera. if i had to work just as a photographer, just a camera and nothing more, i would love to be on a war, like Vietnam, giving this feeling of a witness everywhere, like, i get this feeling when i watch these kind of photos as if the artist is a ghost, catching a glimpse, the fraction of a second,of chaos, love, fear, intimacy.     Even though the vietnam war ended and thankfully Vietnam won, USA's military industrial complex is a never ending war machine that has to be lubricated with the blood of the thir...

BLOG - 4 Time Travel to the Past or Future

       Hi, how are y'all? in the present time i want to talk about the future so i limit my idea here to my lifetime, in the sense that i'm curious about the  transformation of the body, of the narrative of our genetic path, like, i'm gonna be bold about this, im gonna be bald.       So with what i said i want to make clear that what concerns me is the biological future, as in what animals will look like or if that they will even still exist or will the human race bend everything to its own human shape hellhole.     There is this speculative science fiction art book titled 'all tomorrows' about the future of the human condition if there comes an alien species so powerful, that took control of the land and played with our bodies as if we were toys, rearranging us to mimic the abilities of other animals, reflecting the cruelty of the human race on our own planet, and altering us in ways that we keep our knowledge, our intelligen...
