Post 4: The Role of Technology in my Profession and Life


Are you ready for this?

Well in my future profession (which I still don't decide well) the technology yes or yes will have a very important roll ,the sound is a very physical phenomenon that the human has been able to handle practically at his own will through technology, and practically all the sound today in one way or another has some piece of technology as an intermediary.

And probably you may be thinking that the technology is kinda a cyborg way of see the sound like this:


But no, technology is from the beginning of humanity and sound is in its priorities, for example the first instrument found is about 43,000 years old and it was this flute

Is very amazing thinking on this, apart from the tools to survive, the human always seeks to go further and this flute demonstrates a sound-sensitive nature from the beginning of the humanity.

Even in very ancient cultures, music and sound represent a fundamental part of their culture and way of life, from Chinese civilization to our native peoples, all developed technology to better express what is inside us, through the sounds






 Technology is something that accompanies us from the first awakening of humanity trying to imitate the sound of birds to the simplest instrument you can imagine, leaving that as a precedent now you can know how important technology is for my future profession, whatever it would be.

In the present the sound is thinking especially about reducing as much as possible to its minimum expression, on a keyboard having more than 1 million instruments is proof of this, and in a crazy race that song sounds louder, which equipment sounds stronger, etc. Surely in the end we all end up deaf, so take care of your ears, use earplugs in the subway and do not listen to the music at more than 50% of the maximum volume.

 For this reason, I believe that the future of sound technology is to develop new materials that isolate us from ambient noise, leaving us in absolute silence only interrupted by the body's own sounds, closest to total silence.

Post 3: Challenges For 2020

Well well, what can I say, I do not how where to start, even if is correct worry about myself in the delicate moment that across our country... for two principal reasons:

But before a song to get in the wave:


1.) National contingency: I really like to participate in the process that our country will cross in the near future, I don’t know if in the movilizations because I hate sun, but maybe in the constitutional process, I really think I have a lot of ideas to aport in that.

2.) Personal interest: Being realistic, probably I can’t participate directly in that process, so my challenges for 2020 are only do it well in the university with the hope to be selectable to a international pass to study in foreign lands, I will love to go to Canada or England. But to that personal interest I really think It would be impossible, the country for sure will be a mess and the street will elevate their voice so loud that can be imposible to avoid it for our government, and the country will do not work in the same and continuous way that we know, so for me it would be complicated to focus in the studies and even come to the university... I live far far away (In High bridge ( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°))

Thinking in more small details in my life, I would love to improve my skills in piano and voice (I stink singing), spend a lot of time resting and sleeping, listen a lot of music and discover more sound that I like, studying hard some things that I like in my study program, and become the 2020 a strong step in my near and far future and of course let surprise me what the year have preparated to me.

Post 2: The Best Concert ever


If I have  to talk about a concert, I must to talk about the first that I go on my own accord (apparently my first concert was "Cachureos" when I was like 3 years old but that I don’t remember anything) an that's "Alice In chains" , Santiago 2013. Before that I have never been to another big event like that, only a few of bar "tocatas" where tribute's bands plays (or try) iconic songs of metal and rock.

I remember those days were very special because Alice in chains did their concert in the same day that my girlfriend was on her birthday. She also is a very big fan of this band (in fact she present me that band and I liked it so much) so it would have been very nice to go to that concert in that special day, and we decided to go whatever it took, and we got it.


The concert was in "Movistar Arena", I think it a small place, but actually a lot of people went to the concert. When it started it was like a thunder crossing the entire enclosure and immediate all of us could feel the energy and sadness of their music, it was magical and so intimate,  I've remembered having sung very loud my favourite song: "Would?", the next day I was so hoarse than I couldn't even speak, It was a lot of fun.

Also this concert was very important to me because in that times I just begins to know the band and my interest on the sound and music, and since then I really get catchy in the music world, I don’t know why, but the path of life led me to study sound finally, and would be really awesome if I become in a part of that world.

Special mention to the great singer Layne Staley that was one of the founders of the band, him voice was really amazing and in my opinion one of the best and more expresive in rock music, sadly he pass away in 90’ cause an overdoses of drugs. 

To finish I let you 3 songs to you from "Alice in chains"







I recommend so much "Alice in chains"¡

Post 1: A Country I'd like to visit

Hi everyone!

Today I will tell you which country I would love to visit:

First of all a song to bring some atmosphere:




                                                                        I will talk about....

England ! Of course.
Resultado de imagen para england



Resultado de imagen para stonehengeI love many things of that country, for example their rich history, since the very beginning. The first people who arrived to the great Britain island are very interesting, they made things like Stonehenge that are amazing and mysterious, no one knows how they made that or what for certainly.







Resultado de imagen para led zeppelinThe recent history is interesting too, I love the music that comes from England, my favourite band of all times are From there and is "Led Zeppelin" in fact I stole the last name of their guitarist. The rock music has raised a great level in the decade of 60' 70', "the Beatles" for example are famous around the whole world from their debut. Also Celta's music is very interesting and it is very ancient but maybe they are closer to Scotland (I also love visit it) 





England is also  famous sadly for their wars, they have many conquests around the world that supports themselves to raise, almost all of their power was reduced to ashes with the global wars, and loses almost all their colonies.

Also their literature is very important to me, Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter are ones of my favourites books ever. 










I know that I only mentioned England and not the United Kingdom, that's because  despite that normally people thinks UK are not a country, are many, to be exact UK groups several countries that resides on the Great Britain and Ireland islands , those countries are England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland (I also would love to visit those countries)


The last point that I will mention is the weather, I love cold and rainy climates and England is famous for that.
