Ibiza

One two One Two: Arte Ibiza

Desde mi ignorancia hice la comparación que ni siquiera cabe en una cabeza de Ibicenco: me dije en los preparativos del viaje “Será una isla como Formentera…” pero en lo cierto no hay nada más lejos de la realidad, a pesar de encontrarse una isla frente a la otra. Ibiza es aislamiento y tumultos, discotecas y silencio. Arte y más Arte mires donde mires, arte masaje, arte-autos, Arte-bares, galerías de Arte, playas de Arte, Arte-fiestas… El arte pertenece a todos y está en las calles incluso en los pueblos menos transitados. Otro punto a destacar es que (a diferencia de Formentera) No es nada difícil encontrase con ibicencos que viven todo el verano e invierno en su isla; Y lo que es mejor: Los jóvenes trabajan la tierra para evadir el maltrato que reciben los “payeses” cultivadores a manos de vendedores y las grandes empresas. Ibiza es un lugar para todos y todo un ejemplo de autogestión y ecologismo propios de una cooperativa gigante; Ibiza no es solo lo que nos venden en las revistas: “A Big Party”... Ibiza es única entre las islas que rodean la Península.

de Barcelona a Ibiza, la isla de los piratas:

-¿Te aburres?

-Cuando un hombre rodeado por pura naturaleza no es capaz de escuchar sus cánticos y se aburre, simplemente no se halla en sus cabales…

“Sir Nadie Nadie”

Arggg_small
Escúchame bien…Arggg… Estoy llena de desencantos, cansada de las mentiras de tu propaganda sexista y tu condición auto exigida de guerrero ven a ver si eres pelea para mí cuando te grite al oído con todo el aire de mis pulmones

“Bastardo”…

Acércate más que no te escucho cobarde… ¿Qué decías?...

Arggg… -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Adivina trasparente creo entender esperaré intranquilo la nada

Cuando la inconmovible energía que esparces entre nosotros se torna en adivina y la conciencia seductora, se difunde trasparente en medio de las lejanías dispuestas, algo de cierto hay en el aire que me embrolla… Creo es por que nos pertenece el placer de entender sumada a alguna ridícula melancolía también con un poco de romanticismo arcaico. esperaré; como el viento sopla al bambú, como el mar revuelto para jugar los delfines… Intranquilo

Cuando mi trabajo de constructor de melodías se tiñe de mundano al oír tu voz cantar es cuando desaparezco de los mapas. estos dos que somos es uno fundiéndose con la nada

1-. "Working Outside"

Photobucket Photobucket

 From all existence in this world there's no reason to treat any woman badly. The hate run across my vains covering a part of me when this several woman "solicit" me near the corner of this street. Passing right there I can see in her eyes that they don't want to do it but instead: the kiss in the air came flowing to my lips" and the sweet voice again will tell the same; specifically from one I know its really the young... I hate to see you there. Listen "I hate to see you there working outside"....

2-. "Aida R.L." (a colombian friend)

 She`s always the first, her mouse is mocking the face and everybody used to feel her right there because she love that. she is a perfect drum player ...the boyfriend sitting in a side maybe thinking in riding on the bike dont knowing about the picture. Either Important for him....

3-. "Working outside two"

 I did have five minutes to arrive so I walk faster than the rest through the Ramblas to meet a girl I will said its pretty smart; but just when I was getting out the Subway station I saw this green-elfo-smile & brown dreadlocks head( working as a human statue )

Photobucket

so I'd walk slow for a discreet picture taking just the time to get the camera out. That time was enough time to loose a date and her Art again. Nowadays the actress is not working outside at least in the Ramblas, but the fact I wanted to took this photo broke a relation that could be just Nice and she never knew...¡¡¡ Hi smile ¡¡¡ the statics statues in the Ramblas are moving humans

4-. "Surgery: the new Woman" part I

 My neighbourhood, full of man and woman with a sexual orientation pointing at the other side its quiet intriguing, you've only have to walk some minutes to see them. Sometimes, in the coffe time I used to interview the respectable old people living here about my curiosity of this incident and they`d told it is because the twon was a full Cabarets zone in the fifties so the workers of this clubs and related people of that World move to Parallel... I find it strange how similar they'd look like, the nouse, the lips and even the backside; I dont mind at all the behavior of anyone but for me they don`t look healthiest whith the passing time maybe all them goes to the same surgeon doctor or take the same medicine pill. anyhow I remember now that We are what we eat...

6-. "CALIMA concert at Apolo" (2008)

 The great and marvelous show puted on scenes and displayed on stage by this group of young girls and boys living in Barcelona its a hug spectalular volume of their capacity as instrumentists, In my opinion each one can play around three instrument singing the chorus two hours during the show... in My own perspective about creative music from afar, the Best band I have seen in many month. More than 10 musicians with full energie spring up in Any imaginable continent. The name of the Band "CALIMA" (an afro-colombian name from the zone of the "Desplazados") and the melodys of the bass player Juanlu (co-founder & bass) The flamenco influence in the music and the African Dance mixed with the colombian rap flow complete a full joy night. Splendid Gypsy Dancing to start the show

7-."Neibours of My street"

  Eventually I did  smoke out at the balcony having the views from up of "the same people" doing their same things many days of the week, someone riding the bike, other working out, some talking on the fhone, the flyes of the seagull passing above the people of the shops, a happy street anyway with historys like any other. I have start a collection of My Street and want to share this one

8-. "PUB"

 The kind of bars where the youth goes to feel free and were it is easy to find a rebel person in Catalunya are places such supporter of communism. if you spent time around the outskirts of Barcelona many bars will surprise your eyes with signs and a discreet peculiar russian style, the influence of this its the impression in the owners that they have to hate everything from States and not because of F.Engel, V.Lenin or C.Marx

9-."THE TIRED CITY"

 Many days Barcelona seems to be tired of her own. I get not to feel how this affect to me but I can see it in others. The sun, humidity, the fresh air in general weathers even in the winter; In all season Barcelona is fresh but sometimes this freshness is the guilty of laziness and rudely.

10.- "THE CHEAP BEER AT BARCELONETA BEACH"

 When, in the sand of a beach like "the Barceloneta" where no shadow its possible, a Beer coast 2.00€ from a pakistani who walk the coast with a cool bag hawking every twoo minutes: "ColdBerrr-CervesaBearColaFantaWoaterPatataChips". I know a good offert to drope the coins (90cents a double size) In the place of THE CAPITAN Miguel, a simpatic guy who give jobs to such good persons wich is perfect at the moment to cope and deal with the drunk bananas when summertime is nearer. Exhausting assignment.

  In our mind stoked we all know about not to speak too loud and also the tradition of many culture tell us: ¡ the walls are listening ¡... but the walls never drope an advise down, so I'd talk carefully enough with them...to be nice. when I am in a weed stoned alone I pretend to be heard also trying to speak with the wall so they can keep that same secret I have post in all places I've been. they are always listening but never speaking. This conversation with hands of teacher/student will be a lifetime in the walls of the university...

12.- "PURAVIDA"

 Life is looking for me

mom is waittin for me

places are missing me in

and you don't even care.

Victor spoke about me

Canek film about me too

but you flying in abstinence

prefering to wait for me.

Laura and Gio the Italian sing for me once

Tina spill the beans with the mic

while I stand up bassing all background

También I help others to get smiles more each days

and I have found a couple of old toys to be amused

... but am loosing something

how can you choose that name "Pure Life"? 

I can not find you like this.
