Arte Transversal – Transdisciplinary Art – Mexico
Posted: July 1, 2011 Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: Conferences, Mexico, Veracruz Leave a commentSee English – below
A principios de Junio tuve el placer de compartir mi experiencia de creación transdisciplinar y de enseñanza a nivel de Master, en el Primer Encuentro de Arte Transversal en el Centro Nacional de las Artes – CENART, y en el Centro Veracruzano para las Artes – CEVART. Mi charla se tituló “Justo en el Medio, prácticas creativas con tecnologías y sus vertientes transdisciplinarias”. Aquí puede acceder a la presentación.
El innovador Diplomado Tránsitos es ofrecido para profesionales de las artes, quienes desarrollan sus proyectos con una estructura no usual, empezando por los nombres de las estructuras modulares llamadas nodos, y la variedad de oportunidades de aprendizaje que los estudiantes tienen. Esta flexibilidad ofrece el campo perfecto para la creación de ideas innovadoras y proyectos donde las artes y disciplinas se cruzan. Es un espacio de práctica pedagógica dinámica. Proyectos como “El Hoyo” y “Todo lo que brilla es oro”, son resultado de práctica transversal.

In June I had the pleasure to share my experience as transdisciplinar artist and programme leader in the IOCT Masters in Creative Technologies (in 2010), during the first Summit of Arte Transversal, in the CENART (National Centre for the Arts), in Mexico, City, and in the CEVART (Centre for the Arts in Veracruz). The title of my talk: “Just in the Middle, creative practice with technologies and their transdiciplinary crossings”. Here, you can access to the presentation.
The innovative postgraduate course Tránsitos is offered to arts proffesionals, who develop their projects in an unusual structure, with Modules that offer variety of learning experiences. The flexible structure offers the perfect environment to create innovative projects where arts and other disciplines criss-cross. Projects such as “El Hoyo” and “Todo lo que brilla es oro”, are the result of this practice.

Mexico and New Orleans – Listening practice & Cross-disciplines
Posted: November 28, 2010 Filed under: Conferences | Tags: Anthropology, Conferences, Ethnography, Mexico, Morelia, New Orleans, Paisaje Sonoro, Soundscape, Transdiciplinary Leave a commentI had the great experience of giving a talk in the festival Visiones Sonoras organised by the CMMAS in Morelia – México. Sounding Underground makes connections between people and their current or lost acoustic environments. Interesting questions about its performative function, and the possibilities of the networks are still in my mind. I enjoyed the emphasis placed on the instruments and objects in all the pieces of the Electroacoustic Concert 5 , it connects me more with the performance.
One day later, I presented a paper about Sounding Underground in the IV Encuentro Iberoamericano de Paisaje Sonoro organised by the Fonoteca Nacional in Mexico City. A very diverse and interesting cross-disciplinary and cross-arts reflection about “Paisaje Sonoro” (Soundscape). Excellent speakers and attendants, a learning experience about listening and creating: Whales, Flamencos, Veracruz, San Juan Potosí, Islas Resonantes, Bells (Chile and Mexico), Cartography Mobile experiences, Water, an Electroacoustic concert in 10.0 and lessons about Silence.
Last but not least, I attended to the American Anthropological Association AAA Conference in New Orleans, as speaker in the Session: “Perception, production and circulation: Sensory Ethnography through media” organised by Julia Yezbick and Aryo Danusiri from Harvard University. Sensory Ethnography is a new field where Sounding Underground experience fits very well, and gets nourishment from Anthropology.
Thanks to all the organisers and great people that I met through all these three wonderful events.

This article tells the story of how rising up the price of the ticket in México City, could create a city divided in two: one with metro without commuters, and the other of commuters without metro…
