TED's video opinion

Nowadays, we are growing and growing as population, technology and a lot of other things that have advantages and disadvantages for us. One of the last named is about enviroment.

Global Warming and pollution are our big problems today. Many people think that it isn´t real, and is false that someday we will have consequences from it. But it´s true, and everyday we are closer to that consequences. That´s because architects, designers, companies and scientifics are so worried about it and trying to give us better alternatives or solutions to this situation.

The big problem is that while we are growing, we are moving away as the same time from everything, and we still have to work, study, have social life, etc. That means that we have less time, more distances and less connections.and therefore we use fast alternatives for all, and it isn´t too healthy most of times.

Re-planning cities, build bikeways and anothers alternatives to get closer are the solutions acording to the experts. It would be very expensive for us, but not impossible. Maybe we are not alive, but I´m sure it will be better for future generations. I think that we can start with simple (but not little) things, because we need to create awareness about our enviroment. It could be with masive education programs, publicity, and "low cost" alternatives.

  1. Building bikeways is not as expensive as you think, it is more expensive to enlarge highways and roads

CHANGES TO MY STUDY PROGRAMME

Well, I don´t know if I want to change something about my career. I think that the curriculum is nice, and it’s more, because I actually think that our school is more demanding than others which are “at the same level”.  Our teachers say that a designer is not only a designer, we need to be an intellectual too to start to do our work well because we work for others and our mission is trying to solve people’s problems. It means that is necessary to us knowing about history, philosophy, maths, sciences, etc. besides the technical subjects like drawing, composition and project.   And I like this. I feel like when I get graduated, I will be prepared for everything. The problem aren’t the subjects. Is the schedule. It’s too badly organized! For example, I need to have Physics’ class three times a week, and on Thursday I have that three classes in just one day so that means that my Thursday is basically five continue hours of physic. I hate it. Another important thing that...

Personal Opinions

11)       VIOLENCE ON TELEVISION Well, I’m not agree with violence in most of situations, but when TV is the responsible of this, I’m very worried. Everyone can watch it, even kids. All my life I’ve been watching violence in TV, and I didn´t notice that until I became older. Violence is not only punching. It could be present in acts, habits, language, conversations and discrimination, and TV is one of the responsible of diffusing and normalise this type of things. The “TV’s woman”, and all the stereotypes and prejudices that rounds her are an example.  2 2)       BUYING INSTEAD ADOPTING PETS This is horrible! There is a lot of homeless pets who are hungry, surviving the rains and cold days and nights who needs home! And the worst thing is that people prefer pets who are treated like a thing or like a business. I’m not agree  with the animal profit. 33)       RECYCLING I love it. I...

My Career

I’m in my first year studying design in Universidad de Chile. I chose this career because I always like to draw and I considerate myself very creative. I love do things for others with my hands, with my mind, with my heart, and is very grateful when that things are solving people´s problems or needs.  To be honest, I didn´t know too much about this career, so when I start studying I really started from the beginning. I was a little bit scared, because I didn’t know if I really chose the right career. I was between studying Art, Music or Design. Today I can say that I wasn’t wrong.  For a moment, I didn’t want to study here. I wanted to study in Valparaíso in the PUCV. The subjects that Universidad de Chile had before weren´t of my liking. But I’m from Rancagua and I would be too far of my family, so they didn’t like the idea of me studying there because I’m too sickly and I really have to take care of myself always. I wouldn’t have anyone there and I couldn’t be able to ...
