El fueguino sube al Caribe
por tus punas espejadas;
a criaturas de salares
y de pinar lleva a las palmas.
Nos devuelves al Quetzalcóatl
acarreándonos al maya,
y en las mesetas cansa-cielos
donde es la luz transfigurada,
braceadora, ata tus pueblos
como juncales de sabana.

#Chile – people has been saying that this was going to happen for the last two of years, but I didn’t believe this was actually possibly until 3 or 2 months ago.

When I was a child, I wanted to become an astronomer. Even now, whenever I look up at the night sky, it brings back memories of those days.
This is a photo of Jupiter taken with DSLR-A700 + Kenko 500mm mirror lens. Maybe you can see Jupiter's bands. Well... this blur is pretty much like my life :)

The other day I paid a visit to the “Robotron – Code und Utopie” exhibition at the GfZK in Leipzig. It’s really a great show about technology, industry, politics, socialism, capitalism, and art. If you can, check it out (until February)
