How can your major make the world a better place?

 Well, I think I can start this with a phrase from the philosopher Nietzsche, "life without music would be a mistake".

Music has been something essential in the history of mankind. It has been used as a form of communication in different moments of history. Music tells stories, feelings and is a world language, you might not speak the same language but still be able to understand what the author wanted to convey with his work.

If you pay attention to the evolution of music you can see the evolution of different societies and their culture.

Music can change your moods and being something non-tangible it can hurt a person. Music is something indispensable in humanity everywhere you go there is music, in the subway, elevators, the radio, television, the street, it is not necessary to go to a theater to listen to music and the truth is that music moves crowds.

When I think about all that I think it gives me more encouragement to go on with this difficult career and that life without music really has no meaning.

My Dream Job

Imagen
 Justo antes de terminar la escuela secundaria descubrí la lutería y desde ese momento se convirtió en el trabajo de mis sueños. Yo estudié en un bachillerato artístico donde estudié saxofón y cuando veía a la gente construyendo instrumentos con sus manos decía eso es para mí. Meses antes de salir del bachillerato estaba casi listo para irme a estudiar a Alemania pero para mi mala suerte hubo un cambio de rumbo en el bachillerato y todo quedó en nada, entonces rápidamente decidí ingresar a la Facultad de Artes de la Universidad de Chile, no fue una decisión muy difícil ya que era continuar con lo que venía estudiando. Aún tengo en mente estudiar luthería cuando salga de la universidad y me estoy preparando para eso, voy a un taller para aprender con un profesor y estoy tomando clases de alemán para poder lograr mi sueño. Mi idea es que cuando regrese a Chile sea formar mi taller y también formar la primera escuela formal de luthería del país. En cuanto al salario es una disciplina en l

Changes to My Study Programme

 I have been studying my career for 8 years and I have not seen changes in the infrastructure or in the curriculum. The art faculty I think is the most precarious of all the university of chile I think that if it were not for the love of what I do I would have given up the career. As for the curriculum, I think that although it is fine in its bases, it is still outdated and lacks branches for what is the reality of the students at the time of graduation. As far as time is concerned, I think it is necessary, but I am concerned that we spend the whole career with the same instrument teacher, since there comes a point when we begin to learn from the teachers' mistakes. I think we should have at least two different teachers so that this does not happen. As for infrastructure I think that the distribution of funds in the university makes it impossible to make a big change since the funds for the faculty are very little. As for the subjects I think that there are none that are too many,

Time travel to the past or future

 I believe that if I were given the choice between traveling to the past or to the future, I would choose the past, I believe that every past time was better and that if I could travel to the past I could fix many things and avoid many mistakes. But above all I have always believed that I was not born in the right time, I have always thought that my time would have been the middle age or the 20's, something much simpler and happier for the little things. About the future I don't think I would like to know, because it would ruin the surprise, besides I wouldn't like to know about deaths or anything bad, it would be like a torture. I think I would like to live in those times of the past knowing what I already know and see what benefits or tragedies it would bring me. Maybe I could be treated as a witch or something like that or maybe I could become a millionaire, who knows? I know they say it's wrong to live in the past but living in a past that wasn't yours sounds pr
