after much struggle to recover my blogger password... i am back on the net from the beautiful (sometimes) city of Buenos Aires. i have few videos to post from chile and BsAs so far... they will come. i am also working on posting pictures on flickr. all works in progress. So i recently stumbled upon two amazing things in Barrio San Telmo. la universidad del cine, with ah mazing ciclos del cine every week! AND a super 8 supplier and processing co. in a cute apartment. my new goals include making friends with some argentine cinema students and learn everything i can about the material of super8 film... perhaps some kind of apprenticeship... is in order.
a brief overview of Sudamerica
highlights of chile:
cute beach town pichilemu, el volcan villarica and the crater at the icy top, millions of free range stray dogs of every shape and size. gypsies who read your palm for monedas... or try to. the gorgeous german settled port town valparaiso where houses are crammed together on hills and painted every vibrant color of the rainbow and children ride skateboards to the bottom... screaming. i love it.
highlights and lowlights of Buenos Aires:
dog poop everywhere, but fewer dogs than chile. la feria recoleta- hippies sell their crafts. i met a man from australia who is a world boomerrang champion. the beautiful beach town and home to mar del plata film festival, actually all of the amazing film cycles here are increible! oh yeah, school is ok too.
will vlog pronto! Ciao
