I finally gave myself the opportunity to re-build the guitar that I named the Heyoka. Let me share the story... This guitar was my first electric guitar, a gift from my father when I was 14 or 15 years old. At that age, having such an instrument felt exhilarating, making one feel invincible. 30 years later, the guitar managed to survive. After numerous jams, falls, and impacts that, in the ecstasy and rage of that age, caused it to crash to the ground, it did not arrive intact, or perhaps only in parts until 2020. This year, as I delve back into musical notes and finally record some songs, I discovered a website where I could register copyright from home. This not only motivated me but also streamlined the bureaucratic process, even though it cost a little more; the value of time made it worthwhile. I acquired the missing pieces, and although the new paint wasn't to my liking initially, I reconsidered. Perhaps this guitar should function as a new instrument, not a regular gui

A momentary lapse of reason.  2015  SOLD.   Mixed media/Canvas 150X120cms  Journey to the Future For centuries, human beings have harbored the imagination and dreams of time travel.

One such intriguing concept emerged from the Vatican, described by Father François Brune in his book "Le nouveau mystère du Vatican." According to him, a machine named "The Chronovisor" utilized electromagnetic radiation for time travel. Today, humanity has progressed beyond viewing comets as omens of disaster, understanding them as celestial bodies. Yet, we must not dismiss ancient civilizations that lacked knowledge of planets and gravitational movements. There were even ancient texts considered as "books written by the devil," predicting the future along the corridors of time. However, time travel is not confined to the realms of im

Recently, I was invited to advise on the reopening of a theater in my locality. The project involves the reopening of a beautifully restored venue. I was invited by someone who tasked me with managing the search for multimedia companies to handle the audiovisual content. I did my research, consulted with people in the arts community in my city, and we decided to go with a company from Guadalajara for the initial events at the venue. They were very good :) I resigned from the position specifically because I realized that the madam who is in charge  to manage the project has a minimal understanding of show technology, digital arts, and oral hygiene... It wouldn't matter as much if they didn't express opinions or request things outside the logic of such projects. Additionally, this person maintains a "relationship" with one of the external contractors who signs as an engineer, which don't hold that academic degree. This raised doubts about the administration, and I
