Like i said, it's a new tendency, like the transdisciplinary works of Edgar Morin and his views of the social/natural sciences. Disciplines alone are obviously stronger, but that's not the point.

>Historical process
>History doesn't go faster or slower, it's a retrospective process. I just find this all bizarre, that people put the carriage in front of the horses like that, seeing time as linear as that.
Damn bro you're so literal that it hurts. If you want more information about that read Karl Jaspers, he was the main theorist of this aceleration of history.

>As said, bourgeois as fuck.
I don't see the bourgeois in learning and cultivating yourself even in social ambients. The integral education in the modern era it's an anarchist philosophy.

I think you're a little jealous.

He's awesome, very different from the nueva cancion genre of latin americans

Yes, but i said as an aswer of what OP said. Anyway, is not completely about art, it go beyond that. That's why cultures have differents views of what is beauty and what is ugly, they represent their notion of physical perfection in art sometimes (pic related).

>Hawking was famous long before the internet.
it's an example of another integral man.

>Einstein was not only a physicist as well, in fact, much more proeminently interdisciplinary.
Yup, another one.

>What the hell is that? I'm thinking this means "things are happening so fast these days". Please...
It's an historical/philosophy concept. Example: The neolithic revolution made historical proccesses go faster than before, so any change/discovery that usually took one thousand years now it took one hundred years. This again changed with the liberal/democratic revolutions of the 18th century and the industrial revolution, instead of hundreds of years now were only decades. And finally we're in a late capitalism society: The information era. History is going faster than never before now, and we've an accumulation of information that no finite human could entirely understand in his life.

>the burgoise who has to occupy the children, so they put them in piano lessons and swimming and you see this 10 year old girl with a cell phone, schedulling her ballet class with a tv to babysit her little brother.
I learned nearly all this by myself when i was teenager, and i've so much free time that i waste it on videogames, 4chan and partying.

I'm from Chile and i'm obviously a native spanish speaker, i've a big respect for portuguese, it's a pretty language. With the exception of women, they sound weird with that deep voice.

(though i hate their zealot way of life, that song is about the mother of that singer that is named Maria, not about the biblical Mary)

>>3152601
I didn't say that. OP asked what is more important, and i said they're all the same in today society.

I chose this way of life but i ain't going to say all people should do it, maybe i'm wrong and the solution to this world is to completely burn it.

>>3152590
Are you mad or something? Look at Stephen Hawking then and tell me he's only a physicist and an astronomer/cosmologist.

I'm saying this is something new, the integral education started again with Ferrer back in the 20s, but only with the internet and the acceleration of the historical procceses we've seen this human emerge from the big mass of specialists.

>>3152584
don't think i'm perfect in all that, but i'm trying to have a big knowledge and a lot of practice in that stuff.

>>3152558
I'm still young but i'm a poet (a novelist in the future, maybe!!), a painter (though i specialize in watercolor), i study history, pedagogy and i plan to expand it to anthropology someday, i play guitar and piano (but i like more synths), i'm an excursionist (trekking is my main sport), i have a pretty big opinion of the modern world, i'm in a secret society, in a political affinity group, i'm pretty lucky with women and i've very good friends, and mmh, just that, i think.

Someday i will expand it more. I like theatre, and i don't how to fight so i want to learn personal defense or maybe a martial art.

In the west we live again in a society where specialization it's nothing compared with an integral formation/education, like in ancient Greece and Rome (specially Greece), there are modern "philosophers" that not only they think about their speciality but they do transdisciplinary works. For example: Aristotle, he had an interest in philosophy, political science, ethics, metaphysics, biology/zoology, poetry and rethoric (AKA, charm or charisma), music, aesthetics (AKA, the looks), he was a complete man.

This kind of man/woman keeps coming back, now again we're seeing that man in the west, a man that expands it's frontiers. Don't close yourself to learning the same things that Aristotle learned. Write, read, learn to play an instrument, learn another language, make tattoos, have an opinion on everything, be interesting and don't forget about the god-damned aesthetics. Even if you're ugly take care of yourself.

That's why i didn't list them. And they're good because it's poetry with music, not music with some guy singing shit.

Everything is important to be a complete man/woman.

It's not something about the opinion of the rest, it's about your own development as a modern human.

Oh! Also all the romance languages have the BEST folk music only for their language.

Damn, there's so many good artists and song there that i can't even start to list them

I don't know, spanish it's a very complex language, like any romance idiom and like latin. I find that it's perfect for poetry and literature in general, but for music not so much.

>Using the concept progress
>Progress being a crucial word for the enlightnement philosophy
lol

Maybe the literary style. Maybe the teacher it's ignorant about "posmodernist" literature.

it's too basic, damn, even cyberpunk it's now far from being a postmodern genre. If the teacher it's gentle it will probably not be a hard course, maybe if you're interested.

Thanks bro.


And those IRC links are filled with only novels.

>>3136486
Thanks!!

>>3136492
Nice, ok, you're awesome.

i was searching "doun't mourn, balkanize!". It's interesting to find a different view in the Balkans than the usual nationalism or the big-state solution (AKA, Yugoslavian nostalgia)

>>3136480
I'm from chile, a ain't going to pay that expensive delivery

Same questions, there are books that are nearly impossible to find IRL.

And welp, #bookz sucks. Only novels and crappy books. I've searching Grubacic works since early 2012

Maybe you had bad luck, last year i had the perfect hipster girl (though she said she wasn't a hipster).

But i met her hangin out in poetry workshops and writing, reading and drinking in bars. Search for a balance, no girl will find you interesting if the only thing you do is reading in your dorm.

Fuck you, pay me if you want me to do your homework.

Also it's short as fuck you lazy fatass. Next time watch less anime and porn and read more.

>>3126303
Exactly.

Let's see how the actual revolts in the west evolve. And what happens after the crisis of capitalism ends, part of it depends of Syria right now.

I'm sure of one thing though, direct action will always work!
