Hip Hop and Folk. Two music movies I think you should watch..

Quickly wanted to recommend two films I saw this week at the Buenos Aires Film Festival (BAFICI). Go and see them, when you can. I hadn’t watched any music films on the big screen and I was truly impressed.

Firstly: “The Art Of Rap” directed by Ice-T, the man himself. The fact that he is directing is important, because that way people talk like they talk to Ice-T, not to some fancy documentary maker..

Secondly: “Big Easy Express” Two of my favorite bands, Mumford & Son and The Magnetic Zeros, for two weeks together on a train to New Orleans. Jam sessions in the train after the concerts, beautiful landscapes in the background.

Part of the commuting crowds now.

What would you do if your friend calls you at 3am saying he’s in trouble and needs you to bring him 300$? (by carlsberg)

Which is a more honest signal of your value to a company: when your boss says, “Great job!” or when she gives you a raise?

Talk, as they say, is cheap.

A fascinating read on the honesty of signals we are sending out into the world and what this has ti do with your own body. (thx @zeigor for pointing it out)

A few beach days in Uruguay as a proper goodbye for this summer. (at Punta del Diablo)

A glass of Malbec and the sound of tons of ice that keep slowly advancing.

Patagonia for a few days of talking and walking.

Places that want you to never stop travelling.

Still on the road.
