Daniel Goleman brought the notion of "EI" to prominence as an alternative to more traditional measures of IQ with his 1995 mega-best-seller Emotional Intelligence.Since the publication of that book, conferences and academic institutes have sprung up dedicated to the idea. EI is taught in public schools, and corporate leaders have adopted it as a new way of thinking about success and leadership. EI, and one's "EIQ," can be an explanation of why some "average" people are incredibly successful, while "geniuses" sometimes fail to live up to their promise.
"Emotional Intelligence, Goleman's highly readable and wide-ranging exploration of the best research available by modern psychologists and educators, provides important insights into the true meaning of intelligence and the qualities it encompasses."
David Perlman, San Francisco Chronicle.

Sonidos en el Tiempo.

Los sonidos son los mensajeros del mundo acústico para nuestros oídos, cada sonido puede evocar en nosotros las más variadas emociones,el sonido de la rama de un arbol en primavera puede llevarnos a nuestra primera experiencia sexual en una laguna en una noche en medio de un oráculo de cigarras y búhos cuando éramos adolescentes desbocados por la canción animal de nuestras hormonas.Nuestro nombre perfectamente pronunciado, con un determinado tono y volumen puede darle a quien nos llama un especial poder sobre nuestras emocionalidad.Nuestro cerebro procesa la información auditiva mientras la inquieta acetilcolina lleva la grabación de nuestra ultima sinfonía del día por nuestra jungla neuronal ,al paso que le gritamos al conductor del al lado que se mueva mas a la derecha.El sonido puede llevarnos a un la cumbre de un K2 emocional o a un descenso en apnea a mas de 200 metros de nuestra tristeza .No hay cultura que no conozca el poder de los sonidos sobre nuestra vida y mas de la música, mantras, rituales de sonoridad los tambores por ejemplo nos conectan con el pulso caoticamente creativo de la vida de millones de eones mientras se sincronizan con los latidos de nuestro corazon en un concierto de rock.

Felix Gomez.






MUSICA PARA LA TRAVESIA!!!!

Prologue by Loreena McKennitt/Quotes from Rumi

Helen Fisher's courageous investigations of romantic love -- its evolution, its biochemical foundations and its vital importance to human society -- are informing and transforming the way we understand ourselves. Fisher describes love as a universal human drive (stronger than the sex drive; stronger than thirst or hunger; stronger perhaps than the will to live), and her many areas of inquiry shed light on timeless human mysteries, like why we choose one partner over another.

Almost unique among scientists, Fisher explores the science of love without losing a sense of romance: Her work frequently invokes poetry, literature and art -- along with scientific findings -- helping us appreciate our love affair with love itself. In her research, and in books such as Anatomy of Love and 2004's Why We Love, Fisher looks at questions with real impact on modern life. Her latest research raises serious concerns about the widespread, long-term use of antidepressants, which may undermine our natural process of attachment by tampering with hormone levels in the brain.

"In hands as skilled and sensitive as Fisher's, scientific analysis of love only adds to its magic."
Scientific American

EL TRABAJO DEL ESCULTOR AUSTRALIANO RON MUECK

Ron Mueck

(born 1958) is an Australian hyperrealist sculptor working in Great Britain.
Mueck's early career was as a model maker and puppeteer for children's television and films, notably the film Labyrinth for which he also contributed the voice of Ludo, and the Jim Henson series The Storyteller.Mueck moved on to establish his own company in London, making photo-realistic props and animatronics for the advertising industry. Although highly detailed, these props were usually designed to be photographed from one specific angle hiding the mess of construction seen from the other side. Mueck increasingly wanted to produce realistic sculptures which looked perfect from all angles.In 1996 Mueck transitioned to fine art, collaborating with his mother-in-law, Paula Rego, to produce small figures as part of a tableau she was showing at the Hayward Gallery. Rego introduced him to Charles Saatchi who was immediately impressed and started to collect and commission work. This led to the piece which made Mueck's name, Dead Dad, being included in the Sensation show at the Royal Academy the following year. Dead Dad is a rather haunting silicone and mixed media sculpture of the corpse of Mueck's father reduced to about two thirds of its natural scale. It is the only work of Mueck's that uses his own hair for the finished product.Mueck's sculptures faithfully reproduce the minute detail of the human body, but play with scale to produce disconcertingly jarring visual images. His five metre high sculpture Boy 1999 was a feature in the Millennium Dome and later exhibited in the Venice Biennale.In 1999 Mueck was appointed as Associate Artist at the National Gallery, London. During this two year post he created the works Mother and Child, Pregnant Woman, Man in a Boat and Swaddled Baby.[1]In 2002 his sculpture Pregnant Woman[2] was purchased by the National Gallery of Australia for AU$800,000.
