The next information is somthing I read on the net and I found it very interesting and helpuful.

Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are very easy to identify, but the victim may suffer brain damage if the people who attend fails to recognize the symptoms.

Below are the three steps recomended by doctors to identify a stroke:

1.- Ask the person to smile
2.- Ask the person to raise both arms
3.- Ask the person to say a coherent sentence

If the person has any difficult with anyone of this tests, there is a high probability of having a stroke.

with the previous three tests you can recognize a stroke with three hours of anticipation.

Playing with death

Teresa margolles is a mexican women, and she is an artist, she makes diferents performans, but all around the same topic: death. She uses many materials like: water, concrete, blood and other thing that use in the morgue.

Her work is the examining the transition from life to death, body to corpse, Margolles maintains how not even death can function as a leveller of social inequality.
In a way, it is the voice of all those dead people who never heard or helped. It ´s something like justice for them.

"Vaporizaciones" the name of most famous performances, in this work, she use the water with wich washed the dead bodies in the morgues.

My favorite work of her, is in the picture (up), she used human fat and other fluids obtained in the liposculpture.

A Japanese company called Haruyama Trading Co. has developed the first suit against the virus "H1N1".

The suit has been designed with titanium dioxide which reacts with the light to weak and kill the virus when it makes contact with the suit.

It has been produced 50,000 suits and it has been on sale only in Japan.

It costs $7,771.91, this makes me think: Wouldn't it be better spend $200 in a vaccine?

The most important evidence about this controversial topic is a daily that belonged to Richard Evelyn Byrd who had a grade of "Lieutenant Commander".

This daily contains information about one mision he made to the South Pole. He describes what happened there, in the most important part of that document he says that one day he and another person were walking through the montains of ice in Antartica when they arrived to the top of one of the mountains they saw many green trees, something impossible in Antartica, so they began to walk toward that place.

While they were walking to that place they experienced several strange sensations, one of them was that while they aproximated to the strange place they felt weather gone changing until they feel heat.

Byrd wrote in his daily about what they saw when they arrived to the place, the most awesome thing is that they saw an extinct animal on earth.

They had to leave the place for the lack of provisions and the next day they tried to go to the place but they couldn't find it (something very strange).

This is a multifaceted artist, and maybe you can think that he is a kind (or a lot) of weird, and this is true.



He is a musician,cartoonist and writer. According whit the magazine "codigo 6140" , Miki represents a young promise in the Mexican contemporary art scene. His work is about politics,cartoons and others social topics.


I think that he is good, but exist many artist that are better, like Teresa Margolles and SEMEFO. In this link you can check some of his work .
