all the work that she do

When I was 21 I met a guy who loves loves coffee and cigarettes, Foucault and Björk.

She is an icelandic singer, composer, musician... artist, but beyond all the things that she do with her music, I really admire all the collaborations that she do.

All the work that she do with new, different and hip producers, as Arca for her last two albums Vulnicura and Utopia, or Trickie for her second album Post.

All the work that she did with the french world knowing film director Michel Gondry in her music videos for: Human Behavior, Army of me, Crystalline, Declare Independence, Bacheloratte, Jóga, Hyperballad and Isobel. And the collaboration with the medial artist Matthew Barney (knowing for his film serie Cremaster) for his film Drawing Restraint 9 in which she composed, produced and performed the soundtrack.

All the work that she do with great fashion designers as her friend Alexander McQueen who makes several of her festival, concert and music video looks. Or the current work with the talented german designer Iris Van Herpen, knowing for her mixture between hi-tech production techniques and haute couture. Or her latest collaboration with Balmain and Louis Vuitton.

All the work that she do with new artist like James T Merry, british embroidery artist, who makes all her head pieces and the accesories for the stage and the design of all the conceptual art for the album. And with the make up artist  and drag queen Hungry, who design all the conceptual make up for her last two albums.

All the work that she do with engineers to create new instrument and posibilites to reach new sounds. She worked with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in the making of her seventh album Biophilia, and with a group of "IT guys" in the development of the first app album in 2011.

All the work that she do.

All the work that a bunch of people do with her.

my "professional" information in a plot twist

–First I would like to say that if you read my entry "my red convertible Porsche" you will already know that this thing that I'm doing in this institution  don't represent my interests. Or maybe should say: if you read that entry you will know that  I'm quite doubtful. In that entry I said that I should stick to my original plan, so now I'm trying to bend my destiny and  do what was undo.– I have a Design degree with focusing in Industrial Design and currently I'm a student in the Dance program of the Arts Faculty in Universidad de Chile. At the end of my first degree I started thinking in a way of transform the disciplinar field I was told I should perform my professional knowledge and add to it my own perspective and interests. I decided not to take to an end my final project and pospone my residence, with the aim of going out and pursuit new places and disciplines where I could insert myself. The plan A was: ask for a working holiday visa ...

non sense

“Why isn't it three plus five the same that six plus two?”  That was what I wonder when I woke up today. Not an European forest full of pines and oaks and musk growing as a natural carpet. A Chilean forest instead, full of Eucalyptus, Litre and a serie of unknown brunches and bushes. That one that grows near the beach was the one that I was trying to scape from.  After running through the forest I found a safe place. I reached the house of a friend of mine.  I had the keys in my pocket, but s uddenly  I was inside trying to solve the way which two dices were going to make my new five friends returned to their original form. They could be objects again, after all, they had finished their work: save me from the three hounds which tried to hunt me at the forest.   The boy who once was a lamp was the nicest one, quite charming and alluring. We fell in love, but the destiny was not on our side.  I throwed the dices and unfortunately ...

aitor throup studio

I'm a visual thinker so my references always have been on that side of the creative spectrum. Sometimes I really wonder if I found another interest rather than the visual appreciation in the dance. I know more architects and more fashion designers than dancers or choreographers. Sometime ago searching information for I don't remember what I reached the website of a british fashion designer, Aitor Throup. More than his designs I found really interesting the way he develops his creative process and specifically how he is able to manage his time despite the timing of the industry. Aitor throup is a multidisciplinar platform that explore how different techniques can be apply to the research and design of new fashion objects. This translates in the embrace of a new way of understand the process and breaks the pressure and the need of the fashion industry for present a show/collection at least twice a year. Instead his work present  a serie of patterns, prototype...
