Would you mind if I loved you?

About Me

"Stillness is what creates love. Movement is what creates life. To be still and still moving-this is everything." -Do Hyun Choe
[My full profile, art, photos and more active blogging you will find @ www.flickr.com] . I have not been down this neck of the woods often since I signed up in 2005... but perhaps I..ll be around more this 2007. =)
[Web/Gaphic design, et ceteras www.giselagiardino.com.ar ] My current work's website. I..m a freelance designer, but actually more a "Jane of, uhm, several trades". 7 years with internet-related activities and fully independent and internet-based since 4 years ago when I took the wise decision to quit my 5-years International Commerce job which was draining me, and pointlessly. Freedom is more complex than submission in many ways, yet so genuinely rewarding. And I choose freedom.
[For my blog @ Blogger, The Female Moth, click here] No big deal about the contents -like those I post in flickr and here soon too, yet it..s a nice design they say - it..s all about the header photo, I think.-
[For a sort of autobiography, I..ve just jotted down some lines... click here at your leisure]

My Interests

Many... Music -singing specially-, Visual Arts, Eclectic Thinking, Humor, Wit, Smart and Creative Worldviews, Human Dynamics, Nature and Life Dynamics, The Internet, The 23 Synchronicity, Synergy, Neurosciences, our Brain, Semiotics, The Maya, Astronomy... etc, etc, etc. But above all, my main interest is being a better person everyday.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone enough confused to keep questioning things about themselves and the world, and willing to write down the screenplay of their lives. And act it out. Anyone who I could learn from. Anyone with some wit and sense of humor and a creative worldview. Anyone with the courage to see things from multiple and different perspectives and comprehend they are all part of a same broad view. Anyone who believes in magic.

Yet, in a less extensive but more eccentric answer... Here..s a list of cool people (from all disciplines, kinds, dead or alive, real or characters) I..d love to have a conversation with:

Jorge Luis Borges, Albert Einstein, Val Kilmer, Walt Whitman, Jesus, Siddhartha Gautama, Oscar Wilde, Lord Henry (character from "The Portrait of Dorian Gray"), JFK, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Mark Twain, Freddie Mercury, Richard Bach, Goethe, The little Prince, Eddie Vedder, Martin Gore, Voltaire, Gregory Bateson, Charles Sanders Peirce, Syd Barret, Blaise Pascal, Socrates, Benjamin Franklin, Roger Bacon, Sarah McLachlan, Keith Haring, Tchaikovsky, Edward Hopper, Herbert Marcuse, Oliver Stone, Jane Eyre, Lewis Carrol, Andy Warhol (et al). Would be a blessing to learn about the souls behind and beyond their works and legacy. They are, to me, advanced human beings, ahead of their time like prophetic zeitgeists or perhaps, actually timeless. And even through the slight feeling of the essential interconnectedness which gathers us all, they already help/ed me grow up, understand myself and others better, grasp the dynamics of the human condition and the whole of the universe itself.

I consider I am made of others and shaped with their works, their crafts and arts, their teachings, their examples -and counterexamples- and their legacy (oh and genes too). All blent together in some way which would come to be what makes my "self"... Therefore, a good way to know who I am is to know who are some of my mentors (elected or by default setting).
