MELISA AGUILERA

Eclectic artist

Active musician

Always searching and learning

To get together

I will never stop learning

The learning process is reflected in the way we sound.
LISTEN TO

I chose to live through music. I like to know it and recognize it in its various forms.

I am extremely interested in humans, their way of being and expressing themselves.

I love to observe and listen to how people show, transform and translate what they have inside.

Control, present and thermodynamics of bonds

Thinking and writing

When you are nowhere else but here. You are not in another place, you are not in another time. There you can stare straight into the eyes and get in touch with the other. Or at least question them and invite them to the present.

When you cannot be here. The gaze is lost, it does not point anywhere, the body is uncomfortable, the words border on the subject and lose meaning.

You want to be in the present, but you want to be in the present of a future. A future that is in your imagination and therefore that present does not exist. You miss the tangible, because you find it very abstract to perceive what is closer, what is more immediate.

The power is so great that you are afraid of being electrocuted. You think that the slightest contact can become an electroshock. But you are already paralyzed long before anything happens.

And you stay there, inert, passive spectator of life, of your own life. The one that should have been yours and was not. Because you were afraid to suffer it, you did not live it.

Dare to do the most ridiculous, the most uncomfortable, the most risky. Do not stop feeling. Don’t be afraid to be there, to be here. Take off that prejudice. Undress that heavy armor of pretensions and calculations.

Kiss her. Or don’t kiss her, but give yourself to her so that she can do it. But do it because you want to. Do not reject her. Do not reject yourself. Integrate yourself. Don’t suffer xenophobia of yourself.

What is the best thing about teaching?

  • The most beautiful thing about teaching is getting to know a person and being able to see their personality through music.

She loves to see people expressing themselves, being them, through sounds.

What does she love most about making music?

  • What she loves most about making music is being present. Music and sound are only possible in time. Time has to be inhabited, and since we perceive music as sound, it is acoustic and cannot be trapped. It must be done in real time, you have to be there, you have to be concentrated, connected, attentive. It is a refuge that protects us from the past and the future, but that nevertheless happens thanks to all of this and also helps us to transit them better and to know ourselves better. Allowing us to see with our eyes closed.
