Updates, updates, updates... Probably nobody read this, but it seems to work as a reminder. Most people as the title goes should know this if studied advertising, graphic design, or art.

"What you know is what you see" This is something my teacher at Digital media used to tell us when talking about information theory, beyond all the math and logarithmic functions you find in measuring information, what you actually perceived or process is whatever is determined to be in your symbolic universe or imaginary.

To put it simple, this means when you process information your recorded transmission will be triggered by elements in common to your sociological and personal context, things like memories, knowledge, customs of your society itself (family, neighborhood, city, country, etc) something semiotics for years have been trying to tell us.

Why am I talking about this? Fair and simple, because art doesn't exist! HEGEL WAS WRONG! When you see a picture of a naked woman, some guy who studied art will check the style, strokes, color balance, proportions, etc... his friend: the size of the crack, the friend of the friend, how it reminds him of his mother due to her hair, and we can go on and on with this.

If all we see is a subject to our knowledge, our mental machination. The world is just reduced into a nihilistic misconception of perceptions established by a social construct, even math is, it's the only language that uses abstracts of absolute valor.

Meaning what? Meaning that this universe is not deterministic and you can even sell a picture of your butt if you need money... hell, What do you think porn is anyway? Exactly!

So why do we bother into calling art something that's just a perception of a misconception? Because we want attention obviously to devoid us of the vast emptiness existence is... others drink beer, I like doing mathematical operations on my free times (even if I do it for work sometimes) so I see the mathematical dimensions of this world and choose to see the world with that scope.

Now, Which scope did you choose?

If dirtyboy10@hotmail.com adds you to hotmail or anything else and his nick is fdslk, that's a fake user someone created to mock me up or anything, I don't know what he/she wants or who/she is.

As always: Thank you all!

Yup! University finals have arrived... so I'll be a little off the site and modding, but that doesn't mean that I will be a tripping balls that won't keep up with what I need to do and cover.

So, I ask you all to be patient for now, since I don't want bad grades (at least TOO BAD grades) I'll keep in touch, but even less than before since I was already busy with my real life money making issues.

P.S.: Breath will continue it's development no matter what!

Today I didn't do anything... for the first time in my life I did actually nothing.

I've spended this day just watching TV and sharing some charity time with my family. Funny thing is that I had some work that wanted finished for today (so I'll do it after taking a nap since it's 2:27 of the morning in here)

The funny thing about all this... is that I have a great day doing this, I needed the break, but a part of me, tolds me: "Why aren't you working?" For some reason I became dependable of working and destroying myself using my whole time for "something" and now, that I did nothing... it just feel somehow wrong and uncomfortable, wierd isn't it?

I think that I need a girlfriend, no shit... I think I really need one so I can at least put some time in something else (besides I'm getting tired of just getting laid with some friend of mine or go to a disco and hook up with someone else) for my bad luck: I know girlfriends costs usually money, and right now I'm not in a regular job (I'm freelancing again) and money it's not a good idea to spend it at someone else besides me, anyhow I can be a good lover if you're interested.

P.S.: About the disco thingie... I work as a VJ in one, so the drinks and much everything else it's on the house.

Hello, this blog it's just an update to my day-by-day situation, and that means the next thing:

I'm f*cking uninspired and unconfortable with I'm writing i/o modeling. Even when I draw I'm not happy with the results. I cleaned today the gallery because of these three reasons:

1. I didn't like some pics I made.
2. The first day I log on I uploaded every single pic of an old folder I have, that included pics of practices and ref images and render tests among a LOTS of crap.
3. I want to just use this space for everything related to Breath.

So thats it people, I'll be a little off for a while and don't expect me to upload (like I upload every single second and pic I do) so often.

Enjoy your day!

Beauty in art is the making one of opposites, such as order and freedom, logic and passion, strength and grace. Everyone's deepest desire is to like the world on an honest or accurate basis. The desire to have contempt—that is, to lessen the meaning of things in order to see one's self as superior—causes unhappiness and even insanity.

Aesthetics can take the form of art or not, in order to embody its function as anti-art. This point is disputed. Some of the forms of anti-art which are art strive to reveal the conventional limits of art by expanding its properties.

Maybe it's expansion... or perhaps just an anarchist pretext for not applying to much effort in most things :P
