Who am I?
I am a mildly accomplished Visual Artist and Theoretician. I am finishing my graduate studies in Philosophy.

Formal Academic Knowledge & Past Experience
I did six years of Art School in a very nostalgic (and almost turn of the century) atmosphere, so my training was incredibly standard, classical and academic [although they recognised Early Modern artists as real proper artists, I think everyone up to Picasso.....]
 * Anything related to classical techniques applicable to all visual arts, was probably something I used to recite as quasi-Biblical text (this includes classical understanding of Major/Minor, High/Low, Medium-Specificity, Degrees of Abstraction, Color Theory (à la anything you want), Specific Tools or trick/techniques shortcuts.
 * Expert on lighting design for actual environments and artistic performances (Theatre, Performance), as well as for Image Capturing (Photography, Moving Pictures)

Jobs I have held at a Professional Level:
 * Editorial, Commercial and Advertising Photographer
 * Model Scouter
 * Talent Developer
 * Product / Content Development for Mass Media or Mass Consumption
 * Experiment Design for Social and Hard Sciences
 * Web Designer
 * Art Critic
 * Journalist, Photo-Journalist
 * Public Relations Agent
 * Artist's Agent / Manager
 * Creative Director in Advertising Company
 * Assistant Librarian at Specialized Philosophy Collection
 * Specialized Translation

Things I do, learnt or know for Leisure or Personal Use:
 * Astronomical Physics
 * Recreational Mathematics
 * Hair & Make-Up Artistry

Languages
I did a minor in Modern Languages while an undergrad, and have more than plenty courses on Linguistics, Translation/Interpretation, Semiotics, and Philology. I am also quite versed in Philosophy of Language, Propositional Logic (and most type of Calculus). I certainly do speak math and I am available and able to translate speech to a more mathematical notation or situate it within a logical rhetoric system.


 * Spanish (Native)
 * English (Almost Native)
 * French (Advanced)
 * German, enough to translate with confidence and read Hegel at a 15 page the hour rate (but I wouldn't know which level that is, as its not C2, for example)
 * Basic American Sign Language

Metaphilosophy & Philosophy
History of Ideas (POV)

Art, Artists & Artworks
New Media.

History & Historiography
Particular Hegel.

Celebrities or People I Know (or Have Worked With)
I have worked most of my life in the fashion, entertainment and cinematographic industries.

For obvious reasons of Conflict of Interest, I reduce my contributions to Biographical Pages (of People I know or have worked with):

- Adding Media to Creative Commons (Usually my original photography, graphic design or still work done for teaching, magazines or newspapers) - Adding, Substituting or Deleting information on the account: 1) I personally know celebrity or personality and know fact is false (pure speculation) 2) Delete irrelevant or unimportant gossip (anything that neither has biographical importance nor relevance in production nor artistic product) 3) Adding additional facts in any account I feel does not disclose all relevant facts

Regarding My Humble Persona
As I have before stated, I am mildly successful at what both my everyday job and my academic practice. Therefore:


 * I won't add or create any type of space in relation to either myself or people I have worked with
 * I don't think I'm relevant enough to get my own shiny Wikipage, but if for some reason one is ever created I obviously won't meddle with it (and will probably identify it here).

My Academic Work / Historical Narrative / Argument Analysis / Hermeneutic Interpretation
However, and because I do formal academic work:


 * I will cite myself if I require to do so in order to sustain an interpretation of text, or a critical assessment or historical evaluation of source.
 * I promise only to do this when absolutely necessary and not stated before by someone who has a higher ranking, status or recognition in the Academia.


 * I will not create a page or section devoted to my own proposal or theory, but if one is already created I believe it is in my right perhaps not to edit but to monitor the page, and communicate with other users regarding interpretation or original work.
 * If they are ever numerous I will put them together in a subpage here.
