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.

An image where I'd like to go.

It has always been in mind to travel to a distant place. To a vast steppe. No hills around, not in the distance, not even beyond the horizon. Something like a desert, but a freezing cold desert with not so bright white light, with a tint of blue, diffused for the thick layer of dark grey clouds and cover for a harsh brown grass carpet. I’d like to visit a place like that not to see the view, but to feel the wind. It should be strong, cold and dry. In my mind I walk through the grass with a stool in my hand and a mug in the other, I took a place in the middle of the steppe, and stay there, staring while I drink tea. When I think in that place I’ve always thought in Tierra del Fuego, a distant island at the end of the world, where after the european invasion, the colonization, the Selk'nam genocide and the hunt of every animal in the land there is nothing more than grass and wind. There is no more else than the land itself. In a less poetic way (or maybe not) a place like th...

there you are!

On summer I was having a random chat with a friend and out of a joke I end up at Chiloé; 1200km away from my house. friend: how has the city treated you? me: has been a nigthmare, it is so freaking hot. I suppose you’re having a god time dealing with the cold at your island. friend: jajajajajajaja, actually it has been pretty hot these days too. me: jajajaja yeah, sure. I check the weather, there is like 20° in your island. friend: that’s for you… The people in here are panicking. me: I should go to your island and stay forever, so I will never feel a summer like this again. friend: jjajajajajaja you should come, I’m taking some days off the next week. me: oh, really? Look at that! it sounds interesting. Don’t say something from what you could regret in the future, I take these proposals quite seriously. friend: jajajajaja I won’t. me: … ok. I already buy the plain tickets. See on Monday. friend: O_O My mom was the most excited about the ...

New year resolutions, YU-PI-!

Two thousand and twenty, Twenty Twenty, dos mil veinte (how bilingual!) New year resolutions, yupi!! Challenges for the new year, oh yeah! First one, staying alive! Second, that all my dreams come true! Last, but not least, the fall of capitalism!! As 2020 it is just a way of administrate that thing that we call time, I don't think year resolution should exist, maybe just resolution for the future to come, what it's the same, but at the same time not... So, this are my thoughts for this 4718 (for the chinese calendar). Well, I think the real challenge for the time to come is to be able to manage the collapse and fall of every structure that doesn't work with our wishes for a new and renovated way of living that considere us as... humans and not just a productive robots. It is time to kill, crush and transform something, anything we considerer a detriment for our existence. Also recognize, and think, and accept, the academy as space o...
