It is very difficult for me to choose a vacation trip as the best, because I believe that each one has its charms and anecdotes that make them unique, however in 2017 I traveled with my 2 brothers, plus my sister and her boyfriend to north of Chile, where I was impressed. That year we travelled to “San Pedro de Atacama” to know some of its charms, such as the "Geysers del Tatio", "Lagunas Escondidas de Baltinache", the Town "Machuca" at 4000 meters above sea level or "The Valley of the Moon" that we didn´t know because we were only one week ... :( Before this trip I didn´t know the north of Chile and I imagined that all was only yellow stones, sand and a lot of sun (which I love). So, I travelled without expectation of anything, I didn't know what to expect. This was the best! because when we arrived in Calama city I began to be impressed by the majesty of the desert. This was intensified as we travelled by bus from Calama to San Ped...

    It is difficult for me to choose just one country that I would like to meet. The truth is that I would like to know the whole planet hahaha ... well, but if I had to choose, I keep the cradles of civilization (known so far).          Then, I would like to know India and Egypt, mainly because of the immense wisdom of our ancestors in all dimensions of the human being: spiritual, psychic (intellectual and emotional) and physical. For example, from Egypt I am interested in experiencing the places where great beings (perhaps some mythological ones) lived from where the foundations of philosophy and science come. And in the case of India, I am obviously very interested in knowing places from which beings with much development in the spiritual realm have emerged. In short, I think the history of these civilizations have much to give to the current civilization in terms of the integral cultivation of being.   ...

Hi guys, I'm going to write about my year to this day … It has really been a very intense year with many academic and work activities. This has made it a bit difficult to perfect my bouquets. This year I have 8 branches, in different faculties, so sometimes I have complicated schedules ... Since last year, in addition to the subjects, I have been working on many activities with my Guitar Duo, some of which were scheduled for this semester, concerts, recordings and tours. This semester I had the pleasure of participating in different cities of Uruguay, where we offered concerts and created an audiovisual record with the guitars of a Luthier from the City of Canelones. It was a very beautiful experience, full of musical learning and life. This is something that makes me very happy. Another thing that has given me a lot of joy is having received my degree in Music Teacher about a month ago. It was a long process, where three good friends of career participa...

In post 6 I talked about the things that I would like to do. I finished that post talking about traveling the world. I have met very few people who don’t like to know other places, most people love the idea,but few people are passionate about the idea, and only a small group of people take the initiative. I believe that the experience of knowing the outside causes knowing the interior, that is to say, that the trip is both external and internal. We all need to learn, and the self-knowledge provided by travel always makes us grow. A very important learning is that the limits are not as real as they seem. For example, we can believe that there is a natural line that divides countries, but we all know that they are only political limits. During the trips we go through circumstances that can make us defect, however, when we overcome those limits, we understand that those limits were self-imposed. Recognizing and valuing different cultures, from our own culture allo...

During the holidays I began to study about the management of musical projects because the need to find and create spaces to spread the music we do was growing. At the beginning of the academic year, I registered the subject of Management of musical projects, which has helped me to solve many of the doubts that had arisen in the summer. It has also helped me to specify projects in a better way. The subject that we have been studying is oriented to the management of projects of own initiative that can be financed by economic resources of governmental institutions. All this process has led me to read many texts of cultural policies that allow me to handle the technical language of the field of culture. Which has meant a lot of time, but also learning. My acting career in guitar has a limited work field, so the subject appears in a very timely way because it helps us create our own spaces that allow us to do the art we study and live at the same time. Making our...

After thinking about it for a while, I think I have decided to talk about a great reference for my musical development. In 2013 an accordionist friend recommended me to listen to Yamandu Costa, a great Brazilian guitarist and composer. When I heard his music I was impressed by his technical and musical virtuosity. Yamandu Costa is a young musician, he is 39 years old and made his debut as an artist when he was 17 years old in Sao Paulo. He was born into a family of musicians, his father made gypsy music. All this possibly gave him the necessary tools to develop in music. His main work consists of his own compositions based on rhythms from Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, influenced by teachers after his father. Some rhythms that he plays are choro, bossa nova, milonga, tango, samba, chamamé. However, he has recently been learning other rhythms in different countries. I think the way Yamandú Costa manages to communicate with the instrument is admirable. His ability to i...

There are some things that I would like to do in life and that I still do not do. I have never done extreme sports regularly, but I feel attracted to them. As a child I liked adrenaline a lot, after a while, I was channeling all that energy into some discipline. I practiced personal defense, gymnastics, karate and soccer ... I also liked to draw and paint a lot. All this until I met the guitar that introduced me to the world of music, I dedicated so much energy to this art that I stopped doing many things. I started creating fascinating experiences with music. However, by organizing my time and energy, I can now complement myself with other activities. This has given me time to think again about activities like the ones I liked when I was a kid. Some of these are parachuting, paragliding, bungee jumping, surfing, vertical climbing, among others. To practice these extreme sports I have to be in nature, which helps me a lot to connect with the environment and ...

Well, if we understand technology like any tool that facilitates our life, my favorite is the Guitar, one of the things I enjoy the most. However, in the context of our current society new technologies use to be digital, which doesn't fascinate me, but I know is very important. I had my very first cellphone at the age of 13, when my parents gifted one to me on my birthday. I think that the cellphone is one of the most important technologies, because today it has many tools that make our lives easier. For example: Photography, music, communication, etc, and thats the reason why I the use it very often. So, besides being just a cellphone, is also a smart computer. I think without it, life would be harder to success the current competition. The access to Internet from my cellphone make this one of my favorite technologies because it facilitates my life to listen to music, to communicate with my family, friends and to resolve academic stuff. Also, the cellphone ...

When I was very young I dreamed of playing the guitar, I used the broom imagining that it was a guitar and imitated the guitarists of same music bands I watched on television. Later, like many, I wanted to be a football player, then veterinarian, until I decided on music and finally on guitar. During high school, the only thing that I used to do was play music with my band and barely studied for test, which made my decision to study music evident. When I wanted to study Veterinarian Medicine, I realized that I had not interest in the Biology, but just for animals, so I keep loving animals and music. When I get in University I met many people with interest like mines, the process has been very important for music, human and spiritual stuff. Today I believe that I am in the right place to dedicate myself to music, teaching, producing and promoting it.

Hi, I'm Ignacio. I was born in November of the year 1993 in Curicó city, The Wine City! City that would not change, although it might alternate with de desert of San Pedro de Atacama. At 5 year old I entered school and I was there until I finished my secondary education. During this stage I began to learn to play guitar. I had my own music group with wich we had many adventures! After this, I moved to Santiago to Study Pedagogy in Music at "UMCE" and later I entered the Arts Faculty of University of Chile to study classical guitar, my great passion. My family core lives in Curicó and is very numerous, we became 8, my Mom and Dad, my sister, my 2 brothers and the two Kings of the house, my dog Nick and the kitty "Misty" (the most majesticly beautiful pets), but Nick is gone, so Misty sat on the Throne. This has been a great "Game of Thrones" (My other great passion).  

Hi guys, the photography is not my passion, I don't know much about this art. However, I like the photography that shows nature. The few photos I have taken has been with my cellphone and they are photos of tree, the sky or the clouds. Among the analogic and digital photographs, I believe I prefer analogic photographs mainly because of their color and the romanticism that inpires. This photograph is an example of the ones I like. I don´t know when this photograph was taken, but it represents the style of Art that I tray to make when I use the camera of my cellphone. I found this pictures on the internet on "El blog de Moyra", I don't know who is, but his work in this phtographs I loved. I believe that from now on I will be more aware of the opportunities to register moments with my cellphone.

I love cinema, the movies and the TV series, I like Hollywood production just a little bit, however the movies that I absolutely love is "art cinema". I believe that my favorite movie is "Enter the Void" by Gaspar Noé, I really like its aesthetics and its content. I like the color, the music, the dialogues, the scenes, the approaches. The movie  is about spirituality, where the protagonist experiences altered states of consciousness induced by psychodelics such as DMT, effect similar to those produced by meditation. I love of watching this kind of movies about different points of view of reality. All this through art, surrealism, and psychedelia induced by drugs or meditation. However, today, I have not found new movies of this kind. The last film production that I saw is "Game of Thrones", a great TV serie that struck me because of its artistic professionalism, its authentic script, its fantastic soundtrack and the way in wich the fantasy becomes...
