THE concert

OMG it was the best concert ever!! 


I always say that I've gone to just one concert ever in my entire life, but if I thought a bit longer I realize that I've gone to a lot. The thing is I payed just for one, so that is the one I remember the most, basiclly because... I don't know, because I am a capitalist pig and the only experiences that disserve a space in my cold and materialist heart are the one wich I payed for. Or maybe because it was the only concert that I planned to go, so it felt like I did all the things that it supposes to be done.

When/where it was?
On April 2012. At Parque O'Higgins here in Santiago (At the begining it was called Parque Cousiño, since 1873 to 1972. Its original name was after an aristocrat who decided to comission to a french arquitect transform a plot of land in a beautiful, refind and hip park).

Who was playing?
Since it was a festival people would supose that I saw a lot of artist, but I won't. Actually I bought the ticket just to saw Bjork, which I saw, but my friends criticized my decision and at the end I saw other artists that I don't remember their names.

Can you tell me more about the artist?
She is icelandic, she sings, it was her second time in Stgo, it was the show of her seventh studio album.  

How it was it?
It was pretty croud. And loud. (I've always said that the balance between the instrumentation(?) and the mic was off).

And how you felt? Was a nice experience?
It is funny, I don't remembere it at all. I don't think of it pretty much. I kind of remember that it was good but not surreal.

Did you remember any detail that caught your attention?
The "Tesla cage" that she use to performed her song Thunderbolt. It was pretty amazing how it create the music with the shock of the "lighting stirke" on the metal.

Any anecdote.
Yes, I found a ticket for the next day concert leave there on the grass. So I went for free the second day.

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...
