Postgraduate courses? Academic travel?

Till this day I've wanted to do many stuff from similar fields; film, music, art, performing, poetry... inspired by nature and social fights, so it's a very logical thing to think of making a postgraduate course: a weapon that may help me in a bigger level, because the world is built on that when your circumstances are not so easy. So yes. If I would do a postgraduate course, it would be a master related to the arts and that addresses a colorful variety with which I can work and inspire the people I'd work with. A past few months I was watching a pianist a really admire from New York and she was chatting about her Master and how she studied in Julliard and one time she did a course of creative writing in the UK, so with that she now wrote a poetry book. This was so inspired to learn about. I love piano, I have been writing poetry for the last six+ years and, as I’ve said in previous blogs, I just love everything, all forms of creation related to art and music. So, yes, I wo...

About my future job…

  Since I was very little I’ve always been into all sorts of art and music, I struggled a lot with knowing what to do every single year and I did modern dance, painting, photography a bit of theatre and music; so in the end It had to be something related, but a person who loves everything too much, I looked at it in this way: What can I study or do that it involves everything I love? Cinema. My mum loves films and has shown me a lot of movies, we go to the cinema and it is quite the adventure. So, from that moment I thought: “Let’s do what it comes with this and on the side, keep learning about instruments, painting and in general arts so I am in a good term with it all”. With that in mind, I have to say: I want to work on everything mixed, I would like to make motion projects that walk through anything I find interesting and curious, because I am a non-stopping creator, or I would say I am. I want to work with children around the world, tell them about nature, creativity through...

My favorite stories from the last two years.

Image
  As my last post went really entertaining to develop, I will continue with a similar topic; My favorite books/stories from the last 2 years. I'm not a person that reads a lot of books, except for college, I enjoy more the little stories, poetry (lots of it, and write) and movies. But I do have some recommendations for you to give it a try, and in the best case; read them all.  -.- One of my favorite writers is Edgar Allan Poe; American writer from the 19th century - romanticism, best known for his tetric, dramatic and lonesome writings. He wrote for the paper in Baltimore (USA), tales and one of the most amazing and beautiful (dark) poetries in history. My tops are: The Tell-Tale Heart , The Raven , Annabel Lee and Lenore . Fragment from The Tell-Tale Heart:     “Why would they not be gone? I paced the floor to and fro with heavy strides, as if excited to fury by the observations of the men --but the noise steadily increased. Oh God! what could I do? I ...

My favourite series from the last one and a half year

Image
So, this is a fun topic I like to discuss with my friend Mike because we both love watching series specifically about LGBT+ matters and I love too the crime ones. Since my last moving to the place where I live since September last year, I’ve watched a couple of miniseries that I 1000% recommend by their plot, acting and music. To start the countdown … 1)       SKAM FRANCE (season 3) SKAM is an original series from Norway and for the last five years it has been re – made in different countries such as Norway (original), Italy, Germany, Belgium, USA, Spain and the one I consider the best version: France. As all the other SKAM’S, each season follows a moment in life of one character, my predilect one is Season 3: Lucas. He meets a new mysterious guy; Eliott, following triggering issues about himself (Lucas) and each other.   2)      SHERLOCK (BBC)   A classic story come to the nowadays times. It reunites in a very well-constructed wa...

The best concert I have ever been to

Image
  October 12, 2017 Caupolic á n Theater, Santiago. Jorge Drexler is a singer-songwriter and doctor born in Uruguay in 1964. He won an-Oscar for Best Original Song "Al Otro Lado del R í o" (2005) and several Latin Grammy Awards during 2014 and 2018. He plays and composes mostly on guitar with a bunch of people, including his brother. With my mom we were almost the first to arrive to the theater. Throughout the concert we saw people of different ages having a really good time while Jorge talked to the audience and told some stories behind the songs. The visuals of the concert were quite minimal, with a symbolic sphere of the entire "Salvavidas de Hielo" tour, and the lightning work meant a great company for each song. It was my first concert as such with my mother. I won both tickets in a raffle on the Play FM radio after insisting a lot, and it was a great birthday present for her. He is an artist that we listened to with my aunt since I was a little girl, and as...

A country I would like to visit

ICELAND   Since I was very, very young I have talked about exploring certain corners on the planet, such as the mountains of New Zealand, the castles of Scotland, and others. But the one I talked about the most without even knowing about it until a few years ago, was Iceland. It is what the traveling-poets describe; a call to what seems unknown, but it is as if your mind is flying there during the nights.   Iceland:  Scandinavian  island-country, founded more than 1000 years ago by Nordics coming mainly from Norway, and by others of Celtic and Viking mix. It's a place with a very particular geography and climate, due to being mostly mountains covered in snow or green, huge volcanoes and sea wherever you look. Constantly looking trough trees, rivers and huge forests is what draw me to this kind of spaces. The  uncertainty of an adventure, walking, seeing and learning from nature; something that is very done and inspires on the island and the outside....
