My future Job....bbbb

It's always been my "dream" (or something like that) to work with the music. I´m a musician, and I know that getting paid for play it´s really attractive. However, I dont´´t think that the music can sustain my life... at least not all of it. 

Now, in fact, I have always thought that the scene and the play it's not everything in music. Moreover, the most important thing in music it´s not the show... the show it´s a detail. the real relevance of music is it capacity to create culture, cultural flow in the terrain, and between the people. The music can create cultural resistance and identity.  The power of "reunion" of the music it´s one of  it´s most important properties.

So here you have me, studing geography, and often playing music, of course. Why? because the geography brings to me special interess and tools to analize and undertand the terrain in a efficient, and effective way. It shows to me the route to turn myslf in a person who works the culture, understanding it, and understand how it is transformed, and so how can we build a new way of doing and thinking.

I don´t really understand how can be this possible, and how many i need to know to be succesfull. but I imagine me working with the people, maybe in a neighborhood cousin, or by part of the municipality, but always thinking in solve problems with a cultural perspective... understanding all the things that are in this perspective.Culture is not just culture, and it´s not just art neither. The culture its composed by all the actions of the people, and the way that they understand their own cosmovition. the culture it´s mutable, and much more today with the technology at disposal of the people. and the massive access to information... the culture changes... and our choices change. I recomend to chek Terry Eagleton´s work, it´s very interesting, and also, Paulo Freire's "La Pedagogía del oprimido", where they talk all about this topics, and also education, for example.

In this sense I'll love to work in a school, with kids... work in education, or make classes or workshops about music, culture and policy.

But maybe the thing that I want most it´s imagine myself as a culture manager, or something similar. And i will love, for example, that the event production organizaton in wich I take part, could work, and have the capacity to bring us economic sustain, and we can work creating concerts, and culture in a bigger scale each time.

Greetings! and remember,

My favorite Book

If I had to talk about myself, I think that I'm a person who likes to read. But actually I don´t read very much. Anyway, I had read many books in my life, but there's one that I remember with real affection. It is White Fang, from Jack London. He is an American writer, who was born in San Francisco on January 12th of 1876, and died at the age of 40, in Glen Ellen, on november 22th, 1916. This book, "White Fang", was publiched for the first time on 1906, and tells the story about the life, and all the places and situations that a wolf need to go through to survive. The wolf's name is "White Fang". It's called White Fang by a native guy who take care of it for the first years of it's life. It´s a very emotional story, if you think in all the hate and suffer that is reflected in it. But Actually there's a lot of love in the life of our wolf.

This was the first book that I remember reading  complete, with my father, when I was very young. Actually  maybe he was teaching to me that I need to read, and showing me the wonderfull world hidden in books. When I grow up, about maybe when I was 13 years, I found the book again, and I rememeber devouring it! and I don't even need to say that I love the story...

Actually there's a lot of adaptations for this book (to movie, for example), so we can say that is an actaul classic of literaure.

Anyway, I love the book and the storie because it remind me about my father and he reading to me, he showing to me the books, the stories, the fantasy inside our head... I think that I even remember his smell when we read. It is very important to me.

Well, so maybe leave your favorite books here in the comments section, so who knows... maybe I found a book that blows my mind again

Greetings :),

My favorite movie?

Well, I think that I don't know very much about movies, but if I need to choose one very good movie, I definitly recommend the "Dead Poets Society". Its a very deep and entertaining movie. It talks about a few students and a literature teacher in a prestiguious university, and how about that influences and change the life of his students.

The movie was directed by Peter Weir, with a plot of Tom Schulman... and featuring Robin Williams! Well, te movie is from 1989, so we can say that is an old movie, but actually only a bit old movie. 

I think that the best thing about this movie is the plot, definitly, and how it is developed, and the way that the caracters are developed too. 

I usually like watching animated movies, or series, in fact, the last movie that I've watched was last week, and it´s called "Akira", an anime movie. However,I remember "Dead Poets Society" with a little exitement. 

Its interesting, because there are rumors about that the plot was inspired in the experiences of Shulman in the Montgomery Bell Academy, in Nashville, with an english teacher... so, thing in this movie like a real life based story its very exciting to me! You all should watch this movie, at least one time in your lifes.
