Important piece of news

On Saturday June 4 this year, began to show the fumaroles of Puyehue, a volcano located near the city of Osorno. On Thursday 12 May, student protests began in various parts of the country. What these news have in common? ... apparently little or nothing. But, a deep comparative analysis shows that both phenomena reflect news that may have unpredictable results: they could change the "face of the earth" or just be forgotten.
Powerful eruptions or ash columns, in any way that some people are damaged. People "should be" in parts of the disaster because they had no choice. The simple farmer who see how their animals will die, because the ash covered the field. Or the carabinero whose scars will always remind the attack of an alienated skateboarder.
The farmer and the carabinero do what they know and should do, for that reason received damage from forces that they can not control.
The volcano is only one way Earth has to release its internal energy, to find its balance, the protests serve a similar function on a social level. The search of “liberation” and the rationale behind irrational movements are points in common.
The questions are ... How much internal energy is accumulated? Will they be just columns of ash and powerful eruptions?

See you.

A photo I like.

I have several favorite photos. In my personal life I like some of my childhood photos. Also I like some pictures of my adult life. One of these is that my girlfriend took me into the Valdivia coast, a couple of years ago.

In the photo show up looking at the horizon, along with various wild flowers. Observe the Pacific Ocean and look ask me about my future.
The photo I like it because it represents the constant concern about what I do, so I can do.

The picture took me my girlfriend a sunny day, when we are walking in the beach. We are sitting along a one national historic legacy: The Niebla`s Fort.

Past and present miting an one instant. The question is ¿Wich is the future? My future, our future. An existencial question that sometimes is many dificult answered.

The photo I like because is very simbolic. Simbolize my life, my questions, my emotional concern.

TV serials: Information, entertainment and ideological impact. What you choose?

There is a lot of types of TV serials. It is possible to classify them according to their different purposes or functions. First are those designed to entertain, second are those intended to inform and / or teach. Thirdly, can detect the tv serial bound to have an ideological impact. But many times or generally, these purposes or functions are mixed in the tv serial.
For example, latin american soap operas have an explicit purpose of entertaining first. But as the doctor in sociology Martin Barbero, soap operas also have a character of cultural transformation and political concern. Configuring an ideological impact through them.
A lot of people like TV serials because they are a quick alternative of entertainment and information. But other people do not like them because they are aware of the ideological character implicit in many TV serials.
I have no favorite TV serial, but a kind of serial that I like: the animal world documentary serial. An example of these is "the family of meerkats”, which has several very entertaining and informative chapters about the lifestyle of these animals.
I honestly do not see TV serial very often, because I have little free time. I have many things to study.

See you.
