Hello modern life, today I’m going to talk about of gender and  possibly the end of the gender patterns. First, listening to Johanna Blakey, the center idea I feature is that the women, actually outnumber men in their use of social networking technologies and because them driving the social media revolution, that media companies are going to hire a lot more women and the responsibility of change the “cliché” and the stereotype falls on it.

Well, I disagree a few therewith, because I think that exist other important factor related with the gender domination, stupid stereotype and so on, they are not considered a part of the consumption patterns. Because the gender domination it goes beyond that the product that like to women, the product that like to men , if not, in the mode of relating interpersonally men  with men, men with women, where I don’t  assume determined way of being, dress or whatever, and conversely, the women should not expect determined way of being men, beacause, that reproduce the stereotypes and gender roles.

And with regard the women and politcs, i think is a small breakthrough have women presidents but, the important to end the domination male, stereotype, gender roles is that the men forming part fully of the grievances feminists and stop thinking that feminists is synonymous of angry women.

Hi modern life, today i’m going to talk about how i use Facebook. Well, first i would like to say, i don’t like Facebook. I use it, but i really don’t like Facebook, because unconsciously i lose a lot of time and I prefer talk to my friend in person. But I acknowledge that is useful to plain meet with my friend, and talk to my  friends that live faraway.

The kind of relationship i have in Facebook, is the same that the relationship in the real world, but i can’t really really talk with then, or is very difficult, because almost never have much time, or several friend talk me at the same time, or simply for the fact to chat instead of talk.

The positive is that is cheap talk with the distant friends, but is not the same. And the negative, is that with some relationships i feel that deteriorate because only supports is Facebook.

Sadly, practically i use everyday, because also is useful for information for university, reported classes suspended, texts for the test or anything related with the university.

Finally, i don’t like what read other people, i dont’ know how, but i don’t like it, with the photos, really i don’t care, but when i know that the picture uploading in Facebook are property of Facebook, I stopped.


The ultimate, there is one thing that i like so much of Facebook, that is the competition, i love it.

Good bye xoxoxoxoxox

Life on Mars

Hi modern life, today I’m going to talk about environment, a current theme  because the climate change is irrefutable,  the ice melting, that don’t rain in winter and rain in spring or summer, practically exist only two season, winter and summer, and so on.

But, I think the recent environment is minimum, a few percent of the population to practiced and a few group of the population can practice the environment, because “be ecologist” is very expensive, the product ecologist is so expensive that nobody can buy or the system ecologic for home like solar panel or anything ecologist is expensive.

It’ is true that one be ecologist in the little thing, one can make little things that "make the different" like recycled the bottles, milk box, plastic, separated the product organic, use ecologic bag or whatever, but is very very difficult in Chile. Hardly any trash can in the city; less trash can for glass, plastic, organic product separate. And recently exist politics environment.

I don’t know where the people learn about environmentally friendly practices, maybe for friends, maybe for the T.V, maybe in some school. But this last point I think is central for incorporated recycling into the habits of the people, should teach environment in all school from an early age better.

And, yes, I use bike because I like some much as walk, and I go to the university or other place in bike o walk, because I have the privilege of living close like my university and close the other place, and I have never joined a eco-organisations, because I'm not interested, but i reduce my “carbon footprint” with ampoules-ecologist, use bike, and always closing the “wáter”.


Finally i belive that Santiago should have more and good “ciclovias” and politics environment serious.

Goodbye xoxoxoxoxoxoxox.

Jack Kerouac je t'aime

Hi modern life, today i’m going to talk about my favorite writer. For my is very dificult choose one, because there are many good writers that I like me. But today, the first write come to my mind is Jack Kerouac. He was a famous American novelist, alongside Williams Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, is considered a pioneer of Beat Generation. He’s born March 12, 1922 and died October 21, 1969.

The first novel I read was On the road, a classic in the American literature of twentieth century and the beat generation. This novel they based on the travel of Kerouac and his friends across America.  The narrative takes place in the years 1947 to 1950 and shows a specific era in American, in the jazz of the time, the youngs, the poets, the write, and so on.


Recently, I read the novel “The dharma bums”. Is a great novel that I like very much, because, tells the story about Ray Smith, the protagonist, and your friend Ryder, that teaches about Buddhism Zen and introducing in the meditation. Coincidently in the moment that I read this novel, I was interested in the Buddhist and the meditation. I strongly recommend him.

Good bye and xoxoxoxoxoxo.

Best Best Concert in my life

Hi modern life today i’m goin to talk about to my best concert in my short life. It was in the “Estadio Nacional” the 2009. I’m talking about of the radiohead concert, one of my favorite bands. I know about this band thank my sister and thank again to her for take me a this concert.

Well, Radiohead are a very popular band, from Engleand, formed in 1985, his first álbum was  “Pablo Honey” released in 1992 and his last album is “The King of Limbs” release in 2011. The band consists of Thom Yorke lead vocals, guitar and piano, Jonny Greenwood lead guitar, keyboards and other instruments, Colin Greenwood, bass, Phil Selway, drums, and percussion, and Ed O'Brien guitar.

Sadly I have bad memory then I feel that remember very Little, but the first and last song, never forget, also i remember that was a very very long concert, they play a lot of songs, also at a time had technical problems but was fixed, also the stage and the “spectacle” with the screens was great and beautiful.

I enjoyed it and i was very very very happy and also i could see  other great band, I mean Kraftwerk.

The film is about the sociologist Pierre Bourdieu, Bourdieu was renowned intellectual French, contributing a lot in the theory sociologist. The documentary relate the life academic of Bourdieu explained the principal concept of your theory about reproduction of the inequality,  also the film show the better and the worse moment in your career, the discussing whit other important academic of your age and the participation of Bourdieu in the manifest politic-social.


I like this film because is very useful for understand someone element of the thought of Bourdieu also for know something of the biography this important sociologist.

Free post again.

Hi modern life, today I can choose topic again and today I write about a topic that I like very much and is very important for me, the poetry and specific about my favorite poet Rodrigo Lira. I really don’t remember when start to read poetry but the first poet that read was Rodrigo Lira, specifically the poem “Ars Poétique”. Really good poem, in this Rodrigo Lira write about dictatorship, poetry, art, make intertextuality whit Vicente Huidobro and more! Whatever is a excellent poem. 

Rodrigo Lira was born in 26 of December of 1949 and dies the 26 December of 1981, in Chile. Unfortunately he’s kill yourself in your house. He was suffer a lot in your life besides he endure bipolarity, this mean sometimes he is depressed, sometimes he is maniac, sometimes he is madness. This reflected perfectly in your poetry. The poem “Testimonio de circunstancia” show the angst of Lira or in the meta-poems when is very very very obsessive whit the language you can see the condition maniac of Rodrigo Lira. 

A freak information, the house when Rodrigo Lira lived and died is the red building in Grecia whit Salvador, Ñuñoa.

To conclude, Modern life I recommend a lot read a Rodrigo Lira, because he is a very very good poet. Long live a Lira!

Poema Ars Poetique de Rodrigo Lira

One picture!



Hi modern life!

Today I write about one picture to like me. This picture I see last year in the gallery of World Press Photo in the “Edificio telefónica”. Christian Ziegler took this picture in the Black Mountain Road, Australia. He is a German photojournalist specializing in natural history and science-related topics contributor to National Geographic magazine.

In this picture show southern cassowary (Casuarius casuarius) feeds on the fruit of the blue quandong tree in the forest. Was taken in the 2012 and won the first place in the Photography Contest           organized by World Press Photo in the category “Nature”.


I like very much this picture because the other picture of the gallery is very shocking (beacause show dead children, murder and so on. They are beautiful, but shocking) then this picture is very serene and beautiful. Also the bird of the picture reminded me a Kevin, the bird of the picture UP.


Bye modern life xoxoxoxo.
    

Free topic!

Hi modern life

Today I choose the topic  and I going to write about the music I listening in the last time.  I listening a lot post-punk again, this genre I know when I have sixteen and one friend said to me “Guille you most listen Joy Division and New Orden! ” great friend, greats bands.  Years later, other friend introduced me to the band Motorama. They are a band of post-punk from Rostov-on-Don, Russia. They have released their debut album (Alps) in May 2010. Although they are Russian, the vocalist sings in English, whit a lot of accent. Well I love this band I don’t know why but I like a lot. Maybe for the melody’s and rhythm are easy and nice. They never play in Chile but the last February  they make a concert in Peru and will play in Mexico in the Vive Latino 2014. Shame for me :(

In this term I have only six subjects; Theory sociologic I, Technics quantitative I, Statistics II, Economy I, English III and Study of representation. The most difficult course this term is Theory sociologic I, because I have a read so much. A lot! Seriously…
But the text I have read I like and they are very interesting.

My   extracurricular subject is Study of representation, this subject is dictation in ICEI and is part of the cinema career. I take this class because I can’t take my CFG on time, then I prefer choose a course to my taste. Well I love the cinema and interest a lot is why I take this course. 
On other hand, I participate in the cinema club of university, but this semester I have leave because I have my class of English almost same time.
Lastly I hope exempt of all my courses, education free and become the socialism.
