lalalala music!!


I love music!!, when I was trying to decide what is the kind of art that I like the most, I imagined myself without music and it`s impossible, for me is essential. It doesn't matter if you can't play music (but is amazing when you do it) it's about apreciating it. I dom't know it's like when I hear music I can connect myself into another world that it full of feelings depending of the moment and the kind of music. So I guess that what I like about music is tht sometimes I can have the control of many of my moods depending on the music that I want to hear. It`s like you can identify so much things when you are hearing music and some of them just last for that moment, so at the end you can emerge into many moods. Music it`s also very easy to find, well it depends on the kind of music that you like, and also you can do many things while you are hearing music.... I love music!! don`t know what else I have to say to explain why I like it....

art in these times .... very dionisios


Maybe yes, art have to have a balance between Apollo ( god of rationality, reasoning, truth, etc) and Dionisio ( god of wine,party, extasis, madness, etc), that´s what make it complete, have a balance and be interesting. But now a times I think that the balance is gone, for example music, many many that makes music now thinks that if they do it they will be very cool and it would mean party and popularity, not a lot of people think that there should be something else in that now, like a backround that supports everything that they´re doing, now everybody when they think about doing music thay think in party, popularyity, boys and girls and money, so they´re actually just thinking about Dionisio, and thats what a lot of people see now.

ding and sich of a meaning...


The ding and sich of a meaning for me it´s the difference that makes the signifier give other information, that differnece that makes the essece of that meaning, so that meaning is able to be used to one signified and not many. The "muchness" of a meaning (ding and sich), is the little detail that make it different, that special mental association to the symbol that we have for every symbol, that special memory that let you difference one thing of another. There are many meanings that have some things in common, but every one have that difference that let ou think and know why that thing it´s that thing. And that difference gives you the signified. For example the meaning of a tree... If we divide that meaning it may not say completely what does a tree specifically means, but then that difference from other things makes you know that is a tree and you inmediately associate it with that special signified.

thats what happens if....


All this time, since we got this assignment, I realized how many neurosis I have, just thinking about it drives me crazy. But there is one special neurosis that I can´t stand. I hate hate hate hate hate when I am watching a movie and people around me start reading the subtitles of the movie very low.... AHHHHHH!!! and they just can´t read it to themselfs, they need to make that whispering voice. I prefer not to watch a movie because anyways I can´t concentrate. I just want to strangle the person !!!

I think this neurosis comes from my childhood, when I was little, my parents had a friend that had a daughter, and I hated her, she was so annoying, but she always sat near me when I was watching TV, and for any reason there were subtitles, but she was learning to read, so she always talked in a very very low voice trying to read the subtitles, but she couldn´t and ah!, I could never listen because I was so concentraded un her because she couldnt read well!! She was so stressing, and I always told my parents that I don´t wanted to be with her, but they dont listened, thats why I think that they are rensponsable for my neurosis.

for me?..... Capitalism


Well, I think we are in a good social place, I mean we are not dying because we don´t have enough food, or anything like it, so this capitalist society is working for us. So I prefer capitalism.

We live in a very competitive world, we are always searching a way to stand out and be better than everyone else, capitalism works because it makes people searh always that thing that makes them stand out. A socialist society is based on a perfect idea, but imagine us in a socialist society, it wouldn´t even be perfect, it would exist so much corruption, the government will have so much power and we would´t have what we really deserve, it could even become a lazy society because at the end youre getting the same as everyone else, well of course you have to work and give your best, but what would give you that iterest to be better than everyone else?, what will push you to always search for more and more if at the end youre getting the same as everyone else?

I like this capitalist society because sometimes is fair and sometimes not, it´s not predictible and it makes you always have that sparkle, that iniciative to fight and fight for a position, a good social stand in this world, trying to improve yourself everytime and at the end if you know haw to do things you will get what you deserve depending on what you did and the work you gave it, if you don´t fight for something and improve yourself everytime, being lazy you would be in the position that you deseve depending on what you did to be in that place ( not always, a lot of times it´s different but thats why you will have to keep fighting to get something, capitalism it´s not perfect). I think capitalism makes people be alive by always trying to be better and better, improving themselves and if not afront the consecuences.
And also you will never reach that perfect society that you think that socialism is, it would just get worse.
