10_22 llueve mucho frio/ fall break trip

I'm sorry for all those who check my blog every single day, this fall break I've been travelling across the midwestern  states  and I had no time for updating. While everyone went to places so far away, Marius and me made the decision (with a great hang over, which for sure influenced it) of going to the "closer" detroit, we didn't know that it was going to be seven hours of driving each way! 

Our trip revealed the real midwestern america, its people and cities. It seemed like nobody lived there, we didn't see anyone but one old man reading the bible in Battle Creek, for those who don't read the cereals box while having breakfast, that's the town where kelloggs is based.

 toledo was more of the same, nobody but some tacky tacky people celebrating a wedding, dressed like al capone ( 20's chicago style). And in the middle of the anonymous city, the kazuyo sejima's glass pavilion. 

the building, maybe that's no the correct word to define the SANAA's work, is the simplest and, at the same time the most complex. Only two horizontal planes (floor and ceiling) create the space, the different rooms and services are elegantly separated  from one another by simple glass walls. the curves of these panels and the vision through them gives a complex and ambiguous impression, full of reflections and light. Simply fantastic!! (it was worth the first six hours in the car)

we left toledo and headed to DETROIT, the Ford town, this ugly city keeps to me the most interesting work by Mies van der Rohe, the Lafayette park housing complex. The visit was a great reason to love mies again. No great free spans, no stupid architectural concerns, just people living in miesian spaces, human architecture. the feeling you get by walking around the attached houses is unique, so calm and warm, I can't describe it with words not even in spanish!

I have to mention marius great labour, he was the driver of this fourteen hour trip, a great companion, and what is more important he was always happy to drive for one more hour to see one disappointing and small building. thanks for this fall break!

10_14 nublado fresco/ introducing ANA FLECHA MARCO

she is beautiful, she draws very well, and has 174 friends in the facebook. Raised in Leon, we met one day in a old, dirty and tacky class of music, she was six, I was six. she was short i was short. She could play the piano, I couldn't , why? I was not the teacher's relative!

Depresion americana, el ocaso estadistico

en el metro te proponen desde un curso de ingles para amas de cas hasta remedios para el suicidio, la gente esta tan mediatizada y observada que parece que en vez de ver gente estas leyendo estadisticas, viendo dianas de campanhas cormerciales, o grupos de poblacion definidos. Hay ciertos marcadores que separan las personas de un tipo y de otro. En el metro solo viajan los negros pobres, en el cercanias los trabajadores, y en taxis los blancos. Ante ustedes la discriminacion del ipod shuffle, nano, classic y touch, la marginacion contemporanea!

10_13 frio nublado/ the line

la linea, el limite, una entelequia para facilitar una vision maniquea? la fisica nos niega cualquier tipo de elemento finto, y definido. todo tiene unos limites difusos y ambiguos. pero...(y  teniendo en cuenta todo lo anterior...)

10_8 calor despejado/ quote from the hours

"you cannot find peace by avoiding life" michael cunnigham THE HOURS

10_6 mucho calor, despejado/ REMEMBERING new york!!

UNA CENA BAJO LA LUZ DE UN BURGUER(en escena... mi gran amiga, LAURA ROS from MURCIA!!!!)

(10_3 despejado, calor/EN CONSTANTE TRANSFORMACION

el proceso es en marcha, ya no es posible abortar!

estoy cambiando? es posible que ese cambio responda a un proceso iniciado el mismo dia en que llegue a madrid, y que me va transformando dia a dia de manera irreversible? Se llama evolucion a un cambio que responde a unas condiciones especificamente ambientales? es cambio un proceso que ocurre inconscientemente? se puede parar algo que surge del interior de uno mismo? es posible seguir viviendo coartando nuestras propias libertades?

He llegado a la conclusion de que lo que hago AHORA y lo que soy AHORA es lo que me gusta, lo que quiero ser, y lo que la vida, por diversas circunstancias, me ha hecho ser, es por tanto algo totalmente inevitable e imposible de abortar ya en un estado tan avanzado de gestacion ( 21 anos...)

SI estoy cambiando. Pero llevo cambiando toda mi vida. 

ERICA from LAS VEGAS!!!!!!!!

je parle pour moi meme!
