Post 6: Postgraduate Course

-
I'm currently on my fifth year of the music composition degree and things are going very well lately. I've always love experimental electronic music and sound desing, but for historical and cultural reasons my career doesn't provide students a complete program for this area of the musical knowledge. The mainly reason that I want to study a master degree in electroacoustics abroad is because there is not a lot going on the field here in Chile, so the only option for me is stay very well informed about the subject, or study somewhere else. 

The majority of artists that want to expand their knowledge search for cities like Berlin, Paris, New York etc...For me Berlin sounds really cool but the main turn off is the language  (German is known for its difficulty) but I also like Vancouver very much. Regarding life and work everyone knows that it is not easy to work and study at the same time, but if I have the opportunity I will take it!

Within the subjects that I want to learn are acoustics, Max/MSP, Processing and sound desing techniques, but I don't only want to make learn nerdy stuff and make electronic music but also codeart and artistic installations involving sound, visuals and dance. So wish me luck learning German and keeping improving my English!

So what do you think about my decision?

Post 2: Best Concert - Metallica

I want to talk about my best concert ever! (also my first) It happened in 2013 when I was in highschool. Me and all my friends really enjoyed to listen metal music, and of course if you listen to metal music, you must know that Metallica is one of the biggest bands of the genre. The concert took place in January the 26th of 2010 in the Club Hípico arena. I remember that I went by bus with my two closest cousins and a friend. When we arrived near the Club Hípico there was a giant row of people, and we had to wait about 5 hours under the burning sun before enter. The opening band was Criminal and the crowd was very excited! Everyone was  drinking beer and smoking cigarrettes. The time past very quickly in my mind but it was a great concert and a remarkable experience. Just in case if you don't know anything about the band: Metallica is an American heavy metal group formed in 1981 in Los Angeles, California. They are extremly important in the history of metal/rock music. In f...

Post 3: Paranormal Activity - The Unknown Man

-

One day a friend of mine told me a creepy story about an unknown man that appears at midnight in his bedroom. At first, he thought that he was dreaming, but with the pass of time and the strange series of events that happened since that night (like weird sounds in the house, bad smell and the sensation of someone walking in the house) he actually believe that the man he saw the other night was a truly paranormal activity. My friend remember that the man was wearing white clothes and his figure has a white pale light arround him. Also he has a strange smile in his face, (certenly a not very comfortable experience) After all, the mysterious man was’t proyecting bad vibes , so my friend thought that probably he only wanted to communicate, maybe he was in other dimension ... Since that day, my friend is still waiting for another paranormal activy. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)

Post 5: Future Job(s)

I'm currently studying Music Composition at Universidad de Chile, and I really like the idea of making a Portfolio career, in fact I'm building that path since 2015 when I started in photography. As you may know, musicians spend a lot of time practising and stuying (piano, harmony, orchrestation etc...) but also, we have our personal projects. In my case, I make projects of street photography, portraits and others visual works.  In the near future I really want to study multimedia arts as a second career, and it is for that reason that I'm adding another string to my bow learning to code in two different languajes, Csound (Sound Synthesis) and Processing (Visuals), with all the tools that I currently have, it would be more easy for me to get a job in any institution or private company. Thinking about my future job, I really like to teach to other people, so maybe teaching electroacoustics at my University or in another place would be fine.  Also the possibility of makin...
