Post 3 - What's your favourite piece of technology?





Well, my favourite piece of technology, amongst all the pieces that still appearing, is the cellphone.

I think is a more love & hate relationship, but honestly still my favourite.

i received my first one around secundary school time, and was a reused cellphone by my father or sister i think.

Is was weird because i only used to receive calls, in that time a dont have any money to put in, so i dont used a lot.

was a cellphone only for calls and messages, just that, very far away of the actual smartphones.

but when the smartphones appears, my relationship with the cellphones change a lot, because the internet, and the social media apps.

i love the social media apps, and i hated to, but always reconciliated.

I don’t imagine don’t have a cellphone actually, is a very useful tool to work and entertaining.

Post 4 - What are some of your favourite hobbies/pastimes?

Well, my number one hobby is reading. I love books. I read anything ranging  from essays to novels. Even though some of my readings are mostly political and academic, i read to as a hobbie. Are saying that you enjoy reading when you're forced to do so? One of my favourite pastimes I have is playing computer games. Most of the time I play strategic ones like Age of Empire, Warcraft/Starcraft; the classic ones. I like city-building games and the series of Total War games as well. Another pastime is watching series, like Friends, or Games of Thrones. The latter one is in its eighth season, and only four chapters to finish the entire series remain. ...And a Sport, but also a hobbie: skating. I do it since  I am fourteen years old. and I haven't ever stopped doing it since then. Even now that I don't have much free time. So these are the hobbies, pastimes and sports I like.

How has your political views changed during your lifetime?

Well, my views on politics changed very much, from a passive left -wing thinking to a radical Marxist view on politics. I think my very best influence when I was a child, was my family, where I learn about all the cruelty of the Pinochet dictatorship, the persecutions on the oppositions, including the deaths, the tortures, the desaparitions of people, and most important the search of justice of the family from many of this “detenidos desaparecidos”, the word that cross the world of the fight of mothers, sister, spouses, and not only in Chile, but in many latinoamerican countries, where fierce dictatorship despaired people. This create, I think, a left-wing common sense on me, mainly social conscience, but was in the university where I encounter a elaborated “guide of action” (Engels dixit) for my way of thinking, where when not only see more clearly the central role of the working class in the fight against exploitation and oppression, but more clearly a strategy, from where I get in...

Post 8 - A subject you enjoyed studying this term

Well, a subject that I'm interested in the most this semester was Colonial Arts. The development of western art in the conquered lands by the Spanish and Portuguese crowns until the republican period. The most fascinating thing is the encounter of two cultures/peoples, and what was the result of this in terms of art. It is fascinating to study and research colonial arts because there are so many different theories and views about that encounter of cultures. But when something is fascinating, it is tragic at the same time though, because this encounter was a truly genocide and ethnocide against indigenous tribes in the American continent during the first part of the encounter. Now even this happen, artists or artisans that created many of the colonial art were people of that indigenous culture, or mestizos. Consequently, they created an art in lin with the his masters' rules, but with the touches of millenial cultures like the Azteca peoples or Inca peoples. ...
