A career-related website
Damm, a dificult topic ,ha, I really dont have a favorite webs site related directly with my career, but I have some pages (and youtube channels) which I take most of my inspitation.
the first one is a youtube channel called "nerdist", they make movies,tv series and video games review, its well known that I take a lot of that -geek- world to make my oun stuff related with arts, but the special of this channel is one section wich is called "because science", is the reason why I spend hours in youtube and how I discovered "nerdist", in this section guys explain (or try to) how it works science in fiction, you know, like superheroes powers, futuristics machines, why something should work or not in our (real) world.
Also I cant work without music, in special prog rock which is my actual favourite music genre, so the second page have a lot of prog album reviews, comments, and the most important: music and free download links, a lot of them (yeah). the page is "progarchive.com" and, its amazing, they upload reviews as I sayed before and new abums all day everyday, it is like the music nirvana for me in internet.

Well, technically an U.F.O means :unidentified flying object, but people use it to talk about aliens (yeah).I have always been in love with sci-fy, and perhaps for that reason edI used to be very obsession with other kinds of life in the universe at one point of my life. As a child I tried to see an ufo several times with my telescope and I failed a lot, so I do not know if I am guy with bad luck or they dont want to be seen, yet (put the x files opening theme here), but no matter anyway I believe in the existence of life in other planets beyond ours, in fact, the idea of us like the only life form in the galaxy is ridiculous.
U.F.O or aliens are an interesting topic to talk about because, you can talk seriouly about them or how we see them by pop culture. And that is why we have a lot of kinds of aliens in movies or novels like: the autobots, Xenomorphs, the martians on mars attack, E.T, and most of the guys in star wars.
I really enjoy the fact that maybe we will never see or make contact with one of these creatures, because that ignorance allow us to keep imagining stories of aliens.

about my favourite photo.
Right now I don’t have one, perhaps because I love a lot of pictures, most of them are memes or cartoon photos, so it was very difficult for me to choose one of them, so I will show you two pictures which are very different one from the other.
you already know, as I said some posts ago, that I love music, so lets go to the first picture :
He was Keith Emerson, considered one of the most important keyboard and piano player in rock history. In the photo he is playing a Moog modular synth, maybe in the middle 70s. He died the last march by suicide, so it was a great lost for rock.
And the second one
We all know that batman is a cool guy, but it was not cool like we understand for the people in the 60s and 70s, he was a groove guy in a colourful bat suit (and probably the joker was an LSD addicted in this age ha ha). it was a funny batman for a less darker era for cinema and TV. this image crashes with how we see superheroes in the 21st century, trying to be serious and represent ideals and symbols and stuff, and that is why I love it.
I think that’s it.

about music.
Music is a very important thing for a guy who has spent a lot of time dreaming with dragons and space ships, like me. Perhaps because I have being influenced by movies and books since always, so, most of the music that I actually listen has pretentious themes like the origin of something or fantasy stories, etc, etc, etc.
But I haven’t been always like this, when I was a child I used to listen kind of pop or some kid stuff like almost everyone, except for gorillaz, I love them since their first album.
Music is a way to say things, its a kind of language, so that means music is something complex, perhaps anyone can play an instrument but not everyone can be a good musician, is like a world view, people sometimes just don’t get them and it's fine, the problem with music is that people don’t even try to understand and i think that is why actual pop music is just crap.
Just like books an mythology have influenced me in a lot of ways, my dad is guilty to get me inside rock music. I was like 10 years the first time that I listened to The number of the beast with him. I think that it was like showing a space machine to a cavern man, I felt excited by that fast song, a year after I started my electric guitar and music classes, I was there for 5 years and I learned a lot, I fell in love with blues, jazz and classical music (and that’s the moment when I turned into a pretentious guy ha ha ha) and I discovered bands like Rhapsody which are power metal (they sing about dragons, knights and stuff), to king crimson which are prog rock. currently I am listening a lot of prog rock because of its complexity in the music structure and lyrics.
some usual prog rock joke (I really love the second one)

my favourite piece of technology:
I am not sure if I have told you this yet , but to understand a lot of things about me you have to know that I am a geek, and as a geek I really love things like comics, action figures, collection figures and videogames, they are my ignition fuel to talk about my favourite technology device, which are consoles, videogames consoles.
technically they are just made for the fun and recreation of the players, who can be anyone (and perhaps if you want to annoy your mum, i dont know why but mums dont like consoles and stuff).
the first generation of consoles was made in the 60s, someone told me once that they were created for some kind of militar development, I dont know if that is true, but who (really, really) cares?. anyway, they were very basic, I mean simple desing of games and movement patterns. Now, almost 50 years after, gaming consoles are as complex as a computer and businessmen invest millions in its development.
as a gamer i have being interested in this topic since the first time I have touch a nintendo 64 like 14 years ago (damm, that is in fact a lot of time). but my first console was a playstation 2 which was my tenth birthday. now I am owner of a playstation 3 and I havent played videogames since summer, the last game was metal gear solid 5: the phantom pain and I have spend like (and not joking) almost 115 hours of pure gaming (and tactical espionage action).

why did I choose this career?
Well, I really do not know, but when I was a child I use to love the idea of being a cartoonist or a "master builder"( master builder is how guys in lego company call the toy designer of the brand) and I think that I still want to be both.
I have lots of memories of myself drawing as a kid, I can say that comics and cartoons are important in this point cause I drew cause of them, and that is funny cause my mum says that I have been drawing characters like batman and spider-man since I was really really young and until today, and she is right. I can say that, perhaps, the reason of why I chose to study arts is because I just wanted to do something related to me and what I really love doing. For me drawing is not a hobby, drawing has left a mark, a mark that means that I left part of me on it.
well, being close to music its also an influence in how I feel things and my abstract thoughts.
I think that is why... or not?(insert dramatic music here).

About me
My name is Emilio Ignacio Ortiz Berrios, I was born on august 24th in 1996, so right now I'm close to my early 20´s. I am the second son of my parents: Gonzalo Ortiz and Maricarmen Berrios, and as I have told you -just a moment ago- I have a brother, an older brother in fact, he is the father of a wonderful 7-year old girl, so that makes me a really young uncle.
At age of 5 in the year 2002 I started my primary studies in altazor school, in puente alto, which is the place I have lived on since...always (ha). I made my secondary education in the same school, I have spent so much time in that school that I am part of its first (and complete) generation of students.
I finished the school in 2014.
Back in in 2009 I started to learn music and playing guitar.
One of my best friends and i tried to make a band several times , and all of them have failed. the first band we called argos, and we try to play trash metal, we used to play in a so awful way that it was literaly garbage.
In 2015 I started to study arts in the University of Chile, it wasn´t hard to chose a career for me, it was for my parents (in special my dad) to understand that I could not be something I didn´t want to. they understand now, or try to.
right now I am in my second year as an art student and it´s kinda hard, but i love what I do.
In this pictures I was like 7 years old
I love this pic because my awful way to eat
wiih the family
with a great friend
