I'm walking in the rain !



The rain is often synonym of getting wet or staying at home, but an impressive art installation in London is going to give us the chance to walk under a rain storm without getting wet.  This innovative experiment tries to combine art and technology, and it really works. 

The “Rain Room”, created by the art studio Random International, simulates a rain storm where visitors can walk right through the entire room, more than 1.000 square feet, without being touched by the water, almost 220 gallons continuously recycled. This interactive project uses several 3D cameras to perceive human’s movement inside the room. As the cameras detect some movement, the rain streams on and off respectively; leaving people completely dry.  
Many of us relate art with paintings in a Museum or sculptures in some opening space, but nowadays our mind is getting used to new kind of art expressions. And as we are in a technological era, we have to start seeing technology as a demonstration of art. 

 If you want to look for more information about this experiment, you can watch this video:

The telephone and its moment of glory



Do you remember how exciting it was when the telephone was ringing at your house? And even more breathtaking when the call was for you? Nowadays, we can’t say the same. The disenchantment that people are feeling with Bell’s invention is clearer through the years.
In our country, the telephone massified in the 20’s; nevertheless, it was a luxury which belonged only to wealthy people. Since those years until 2002, this device reached to the top of its glory with more than 3.5 million of handsets, but from there to now, it has had a very significant downtrend. 
The main reason of the disappearing of this great invent resides in the innovation of communication and technology. The Internet, the cell phones, and the social networks have led that the telephone becomes in a useless and an old-world service. The comfort, the privacy, and the connection that cell phones give us is irreplaceable; the same as the internet together with the social network which allows us to communicate and to talk watching each other, almost instantly,  around the world. 
Even though we can observe how the telephone has become in an obsolete device, it also possess some qualities that delay their demise. For example, as thelephones don’t need electricity to work, in Chile's last earthquake, a big part of them continued working, unlike the cell phones or Internet. It also works for people who live in the countryside where the telephone service is the only way to bring them internet or  to mantain them communicated.  
So, do you think that it’s time to send the telephone to the museum? Or do we have to give it another opportunity in this more and more technological world? Think about it.
