Es triste el fenómeno de escritores que te piden que te suscribas a su newsletter porque sus textos lo valen y es verdad que sí, y mucho, pero acompañan su trabajo de imágenes generadas con IA y no caen del guindo en que los ilustradores y fotógrafos son autores también que merecen remuneración

#10AÑOSDECLAVOARDIENDO

El cine y la fotografía tomaron posiciones distintas a la hora de documentar el mundo, el primero optó por ficcional la realidad y la segunda creyó ser su guardiana. 

Por Nacho Moreno.

Y el cine nació documental
Hacemos un repaso sobre las figuras más importantes del género a lo largo de diferentes artículos. En la primera entrega veremos cómo los inicios del cine fueron una fábrica de realidades antes de ser una fábrica de sueños.

I got a 3-month subscription to Mubi thanks to an amazing offer (1€). Now, I need some recommendations on what to watch and enjoy it 😊

Those were optional, because the mandatory were pretty normal for the Audiovisual Communication degree

1. History of America (it was mostly South America)
2. Symbolism in Christian art
3. Ecology
4. History of art
5. Script writing (an extra one)
Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college:
1. Marine Biology (we got to go out on a boat!)
2. The History of the Holocaust
3. Logic and Critical Thinking
4. Eastern Religions
5. The French Revolution
Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college:

1. Origins of Nazism
2. Dante’s Divine Comedy
3. Behavioral Ecology & Conservation Biology
4. Principles of Evolution
5. Thinking and Speaking About Thinking and Speaking

There's a fellowship at the Kyujanggak Institute for Korean Studies, and I was happily checking all the requirements, until I realized I can't apply because my work is about photography, and their archive is about the late Joseon period.

Not gonna lie, this Friday looks like a Monday to me 😅

Well, I need to come back to my senses. I was accepted into the last congress I applied to. Let's get ready to talk about 80s feminist photography in South Korea.

The next step is to try to publish a paper, because I have a few lectures and I need to balance.

Thinking about starting some threads here about old photography. Mostly Spanish or Korean (my research), I'd love to share the history of photography with people interested in that.

Now I need free time, but I think I'll do it. This year, I want to do more cultural diffusion.

From Spanish Galleries:
In view of the lack of response from the Government to our demand for a cultural VAT on the sale of works of art for artists and galleries, Spanish art galleries will close their doors from 2 to 7 Feb.

Yesterday, I attended an info session for a course for the unemployed. I had to fill out some personal info, took an easy test, and had a 20-minute interview. Again, not for a job, but for a course for the unemployed.

And we have to wait to check if we're accepted. This shit is crazy 🙃

En mi casa se creen que terminar el doctorado = automáticamente tener trabajo.

No sé ya cómo explicar las cosas. Encima este año han dejado de convocar una beca -en otro campo que me interesaba- y lo tenía como una opción más a poder hacer algo. ¿Una puerta se cierra pero otra se abre? ¿Dónde?

I applied to a networking online event, and knowing that there will be more than 200 people is giving me a lot of anxiety.

All the profiles I checked are from very successful women (I'm not) with their own business (most of them, if not all).

Any advice?

25.000 followers for being able to ask for a press pass to an event.

I'm done lol

Ha tenido más repercusión de la habitual en mí el post de que busco trabajo. Hacedme virales los que publico de fotos y de MiCorea. Por pedir que no quede, eso también ayuda a dar a conocer mi trabajo 😊🖤

The only job I got accepted for, and... it's a scam.
Also, I checked, and I never applied to that company. I tried to go to their website, and my antivirus jumped.

Nice...
