Post 5: The strangest dream you’ve had.

The strangest dream you’ve had. Dreams are a whole unknown dimension, I believe it is not possible that all of them might be entirely untrue, anyway, we spend a great part of our lives sleeping and dreaming so, it might be that they not only represent a subjective part of ourselves but it might constitute a whole reality on its own. My dreams in general are not so strange and neither have I had many repeated ones in my life, most of the time I don’t even remember what I dreamt he night before, but there is one particular dream I have had several times, but more than a dream, it’s the feeling of having dreamt it. I picture myself over sunset in the streets of a big and people-empty city; at some point of the dream I start having physical sensations, as though I was having to lift a very heavy weight and finally I end up rising from the floor and flying. I make a great physical effort to go beyond the line of the buildings and start flying over the empty city which is now e...

Even if they might sound a bit controversial for some, it'll be a instance to write about what we believe it needs to have a word and a thought or two.

Chile is a country of contrasts, we have plenty of landscapes, supposedly all the climates of the globe, social and economic stability yet…a monocultural and disrespectful country. Historically from the different institutions, the country has sought for unity and social stability by means of making inv...

Task 3: Gender Violence in a Fiction Character that I love.

Image
Using the Formulaic Writing Format studied in class, do the following Writing Task: Gender violence shown in a fiction character that I love. ·        Say:   -  Which the character is and a little about his/her history. ·         - How you got to know to know them. ·         - How  you think any kind of gender violence is depicted in the character, either in their personality, attitudes and/or relationships with other characters ·         -  Exemplify (video, picture, gif, etc) The Simpsons is Sexist! This topic has been one of the topics I’ve needed to think over because it is undeniable that to be critical with one’s likes and preferences might be a bit hard due to the small amount of reflection we are required to do upon our own preferences, but finally, after all the many thoughts involved I got to the conclusion that a...

Task 2: Life as Playlist

Hi guys, as we have seen in class, the second Task is about you talking about your lives and its soundtrack. Please do not forget to get in touch by wednesday with your examples uploaded and ready for feedback over Hangouts. Here you have my example: My Life as a Playlist Music is without any doubt, one of one's life important aspect, especially in the sense that by listening, even just by chance, to a sound-music-tune that is engraved in your memory, you can go back in time and live memories and feelings, once again. When thinking about this blog-entry topic, I came accross with this very interesting website: http://www.abc.net.au/arts/playlist/#!/home . In there, by posing a set of questions (perhaps a bit too many for my taste), the author helps you to identify the key songs of your life. In doing so, I had many memories coming back again, some of them, really happy, some others, well.... you know happiness is best valued when not feeling it...LOL I remembere...
