PHOTOGRAPHY

Hello bloggers
I want to talk to you about photography on this occasion.
This is one of my biggest interests, but it is not common photography. The type of photography that I love and that I love to investigate is old photography.
From a young age I liked to collect old photos and postcards of Santiago and the old buildings and the people who lived in our city.
This is very important for me, because through a photograph it is possible to analyze interpreting the historical, political and cultural value of a society.
My interest in this type of photography began when my grandmother, when I was very young, took out a very old trunk and showed me all the old photos of my family, of my great-great-grandmother, who had a beautiful painting with a classic. And old clothes, from about 1800. In addition, I saw pictures of my great grandmother's yearbook, her marriage and many other things, which seemed incredible to me, because I knew the origin of my family from material objects, and my grandmother told me secret things that I did not know anything about. Family history
Besides this, during a Christmas, my mother gave me a book called "Chile en Mil Fotos", which shows magical places of Chile, approximately one hundred years ago.
My interest in photography and its interpretation is so much that this semester I took the transversal in the University "Representation and demonstration of dialogues from images", which I liked a lot.
Greetings friends, and see you next Friday:)

FUTURE JOB

Hi friends, first of all I apologize for not having written long ago, but I had some mishaps. I would like to talk to you today about my future work. Although, I study architecture, there is a subject of my career that I am passionate about and that I would like to develop later on. When in history classes I hear about the great buildings built a long time ago, starting with Mesopotamia and Egypt, and arriving at the Renaissance, I imagine visiting all those places. There are times when I think I would like to travel the whole world, but I do not have the time or the money. Architecture has a fabulous history, where one wonders how ancient civilizations could reach such full development. This is where my two passions, architecture and history mix. Sometimes I think that my dream job would be to be a professor of history at our faculty, but on the other hand, I would also like to be a researcher of ancient buildings, something related to archeology, for example. This is why I feel t...

PROBLEMS IN FAU

Hi friends, I hope you are well, and are having a happy end of the year. Today I would like to talk to you about the changes that I would like to make in my University, the University of Chile, and specifically in the Architecture career. This race is studied in the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism (FAU), which is located in Santiago Centro, in the streets of Portugal with Marcoleta. I really think that this faculty needs many changes. First of all, we studied in 6 buildings (blocks) that in the past were a girls' school, an army regiment and in the end a market called Juan Antonio Ríos. Also, the condition is very  awful, because, in the summer the classroom are very cold, but also in the winter, because the radiators are very small for the size of the classrooms. In addition, w hen it's raining, there's no way up the stairs to the second floor without getting wet with the rain. The acoustic in the classrooms is very bad, because the teachers have to talk very lo...

POSTGRADUATE

Hello bloggers! I would like to how they are, first of all ... Well, today I want to tell you about the postgraduate I would like to do after graduating as an architect. As I mentioned in previous blogs, architectural restoration and heritage are subjects that fascinate me and that I love. More than building and designing houses, I would very much like to renovate old buildings and restore them, or give them other uses. In architectural issues there are many referents, such as old sheds that now function as theaters, churches that have been transformed into libraries, for example. I have been researching, and one of the best universities to investigate and address the subject of heritage, is the Polytechnic University of Madrid, and its faculty of architecture is called "School of Architecture of Madrid" or ETSAM, which before, in the 19th century had been School of Fine Arts. I hope that when I graduate I can visit Europe, and go through the magnificent restorations t...
