My Favorite Piece of Technology

I think my favorite electronic device is my cell phone, and maybe also my computer.  I think you can do a lot of useful things with a cell phone, even as much as with a computer. For example, sometimes I prefer to read a pdf on my cell phone rather than on my computer, or sometimes I prefer to print from my cell phone. So it's a very useful tool for day-to-day use. 

The "story" of this cell phone is strange, my mother found it on the bus and passed it to me, I "fixed" it and kept it. I have always been good at losing cell phones, one day one was stolen in Estación Central.I lost another one jumping over a fence to get to the bus stop. 

I've never been much of a cell phone shut-in, although lately it helps me a lot to check things out and keep up to date, read pdfs, watch something of interest, etc.

  2. Hello Dorian! I also have bad luck.

    My grandmother used to say that "Losing your cell phone's like losing your mind". She was very bright and wise.

  3. It`s true, you can do many things with the cell phone, they are very useful, without them we would get very bored. How lucky your mom is to have found one, it's always good to have a spare.

  4. Oh Dorian! Your cell phone story is so unique, and your mother is so lucky to have found it in the public locomotion. I wish I had the same luck in my life!
    Also, the cell phone is a really useful device, like you said; It's comfortable to use it, it's easy to transport (in your pocket, maybe), it's light weight, and more things.

  5. I understand you, Dorian, I also tend to lose and neglect my cell phone a lot, until today my phone has already been stolen twice, but hey, nothing in the world is perfect

Žižek!

 Although he does not belong to my field directly, Slavoj Zizek is one of the most influential philosophers and intellectuals of the last decades.  He is of Slovenian nationality, trained in philosophy and sociology at the University of Luibliana and psychoanalysis at the University of Paris VIII Vincennes-Saint-Denis. Among his most important works are the sublíme object of ideology, where he develops a materialist conception of history, but from Lacanian psychoanalysis and Hegelian idealism. In this sense, the approach of his books is almost always philosophical and psychoanalytical, as well as reflective and sometimes political or related to culture.   He mainly discusses contemporary problems in his books, for example, one of his latest books deals precisely with the COVID-19 pandemic.  As a bonus, although it is by no means a secret, Zizek considers himself a person who is passionate about cinema, and sees in it a form of representation of reality. He is co...

4. TIME TRAVEL TO THE FUTURE

Time travel is a dilemma for modern science, and seems to be more of a fantasy that is kept alive as the possibility of something unknown and new. The interesting thing about time travel is, perhaps, to satisfy an inner need or desire to know beyond what is humanly possible, to know what is going to happen, to witness it and perhaps to live it. Perhaps it is just the fantasy of an increasingly technological world, with newer things, that satisfy that fantasy of cyber and networks implanted by the spectacle and popular culture. be that as it may, time travel exists, even if only at the level of an idea. Its usefulness, far from the practical function behind the concept of "travel", is no more than imagining virtual scenarios with the possibility of being , in the case of travel into the future, or simply the possibility of never having been , in the case of travel into the past. In any case, if time travel is possible I would like to travel into the future a considerable numbe...

2. The Best Concert Ever

  "Los Tres" in Summer It happened at the beginning of 2019, as part of a series of concerts that the municipality of Peñalolen put free of charge to the neighbors of the commune (and whoever wanted to attend, of course). The truth is that yes, it was the best concert I have ever attended, but also the only one. The truth is that, despite being free, the presentation was very good. My expectations were almost nil, I liked the band, that's why I attended, but I had never experienced being in a concert of a band that had such a massive audience.   The concert was held in a plaza located on Sanchez Fontecilla Street, closer to Los Presidentes than to Grecia.  The concert was held in a plaza located on Sanchez Fontecilla Street, closer to Los Presidentes than to Grecia, around 7 pm, although I don't remember the exact time because an opening act (a very good one by the way) played before the band. I went with my mother and some friends of hers with whom I got along very ...
