Los Caminos de Macondo

Kankurua: Los caminos de Macondo

Los caminos de Macondo es un espectáculo de cuentacuentos tradicional y escénico que incorpora diversos relatos del escritor colombiano Gabriel García Márquez e historias evocadoras de la identidad resinificada al viajar, en la comunidad Inmigrante de Colombia en Chile.

La puesta en escena busca entregar en una hora y cuarenta y cinco minutos cuentos divertidos, relatos pintorescos, danzas y músicas tradicionales de la costa pacífica colombiana y de la reconocida región caribe; donde la cumbia y sus aires musicales evocan lugares donde bailarines y narrador van tejiendo un hilo conductor a ritmos interpretados por los músicos en escena.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE CHALLENGES

The challenges are plotted in the learning process are different. No they fulfilled many of them, but deliver the ability to create new projects. For example take an English course in an institution. The importance of language management is a major challenge, which was oriented to study in depth and improve all weaknesses in relation to the attitudes and skills that are not managed properly. It is part of the challenges internalize new ways of understanding the world beyond political worldviews that govern my personality structure. These structures largely confined me, do not allow an adequate approach to the understanding of the foreign language. It is also important to enhance and project the ability to dump all reading in English, reading in general do in Spanish. Writing is also a possibility of approach to practice English because writing somehow embodies the world of ideas, ideas that are only in the imagination of everyone speechless. There is no doubt that writing would be the last moment of realization in the approach that I plan to do with English. Finally the game play and do daily activities in English, make the necessary translations of the activities to as a child, play and plan everything in English would be a final output to the learning process that I plan out next year.  

Finally surrender to the strange world of English. A stranger to me, a world of new possibilities for learning and understanding of my personality and social reality in which I live world.

thanks.

Reflections

In the process of entering a new place, where knowledge of a strange, foreign leguaje delivered with very different signs. It is a very complex scenario for a person who does not have sufficient tools to deal with that reality.
The first experiences on stage learning are contradictory; many ways to understand more things my show, no meanings, definitions and varied meanings. Dreams and understandings of the world compressed into new things that can be grouped everything and yet nothing.
I did not know how to explain and understand all things, as associate sounds with things and his way of pronunciation, vocabulary diverse and compact.There is a strong distance with the form, meaning, sound, experience in the interpretations of life, in that other language.
There are many more things that I can not assimilate, they are multiple conflicts that came about not having an experience with English. When I was a child I had no proximity to the English, there was always the possibility of not study him alone until now, until this lifetime, I have come to see him in front of me and I can not hide.
The experience is complex, I could not find resources in my life story for the challenge. Improvisation was not enough, there was no knowledge on the box where resources are stored. What to do? I had no choice, had to train and memorize things that made no sense.

It was a dark night, a night that never ends.

Funny situations

In my life I have gone through countless funny situations; I forget things, disrupted meetings, I have fallen accidentally on other people and many more things that can be fun. I will tell, one that may be more significant. In a summer when there was not much to do with a group of friends we left the city at a place called St. Cyprian, is about four hours away. It is a very beautiful and suitable for relaxation. When we reached the small town where campsite areas are, we hired a guide to the area and took us to places where he could sleep and have a memorable weekend. We settled and each decorated his shop, while the sun went to sleep and woke to accompany the moon at night. When everything was ready, we prepare dinner and share very happily. At the end of dinner, we went to sleep. A few minutes later I heard someone walking out of my store, I went to see who it was, but I saw nothing. This happened for several hours, until the fear left me completely frozen. Only heard the sound of footsteps outside my place. For a moment I left forces and take full of courage when I saw nothing screamed and ran in all directions, who wanted to catch the sound but found no one.
Returning all my friends were laughing, because I had played a joke, I had always said that he had no fear of anything, but tonight I felt Largest fear of my life. After realizing what had happened, I laughed to mourn. It was undoubtedly a night I'll never forget, terror and lots of laughter. Something fun.

HOW GREEN ARE YOU?

HOW GREEN ARE YOU?

Well, how green I am? My practice in this subject are really few. Just I am doing some green things when I feel fit. You could make a list of activities or initiatives that I have done:

• Separate waste by material.
• Sow plants and trees.
• Leave waste in suitable places.
• Participate in group learning activities in waste management.

Generally these would be some things I could do to be a little green in my practice. These activities are few and very few in relation to the years that I have now. I wish I could be more active or activist in the care of nature in general, watch wildlife, pets, or animals living in the street. I'm not violent with the animals, but I want to be in solidarity with them. I think that nature is a public good, which care little. Some time ago, I met a couple of planters plants in urban areas, I did very interested in gardens; They planted all kinds of plants, fruit, citrus, vegetables. They are a people living doing this work and contributing much to the care of nature. After that experience I planted in my house four floors which give them care and hope to see them grow and feel good. It is also a personal exercise to perform more activities as mentioned and teach more people about the topic.

My Passion

My Passion

My passion is storytelling, there is nothing that excites me as much as that. Longtime storytelling is something that brings me to a parallel dumb, where emotions are all that can be. I have not had another experience like only when you consume some substance there my senses. Storytelling is for me a medicine that cures the ailments. It is a passion, as when a football player shouts to convert a point. It's like to feel the adrenaline in my body, which sometimes feel the breath is terminated and you can not take in more air, because the ideas are flying. I can be without food, sex, sleep, but I can not spend weeks without storytelling.  It is something that allows me to unleash my energy and share to others, not only energy, also love, imagination, creativity, dreams.  There are many possibilities that can be developed being on stage acting. I wonder if   You tell stories how long?    You might respond that since childhood, when my grandfather sat telling stories of all kinds; Animals, dreams, travel, lies. Since that time I tell what I read, I hear and imagine with great passion.  Thank you for reading.
