—————————————

At last, the identity of the anonymous authors in the project Dialogue With the Radio has been revealed!! Remember the mysterious E, N, D and ENEDD? Well, find out who they are now!!!:

Allow me to introduce Nicolás Díaz Durana, who is standing right next to me in this not-so-artsy portrait.  We met in our hometown, Bogotá. We both went to catholic schools for boys and girls separately, where we developped a passionate desdain for labels, stereotypes, social standards, as well as anything that would give us false and gratuitous expectations concerning life, humankind, wellbeing, self-esteem, future, happiness, etc (i.e any kind of religous group, political party, self-help group, a fan club, a fast diet program, and so forth). But we didn’t meet until University, and before that we both thought we were bound to end up alone, for we are conscientious guardians of our own individuality, and we do not embrace strangers easely. Subsequently, we entered each other’s lives slowly, almost reluctantly…and I don’t know when and how we fell in love, it just happened. Our story is not one to put in a movie, epic lovestory overseas, tragedy with a happy ending.

We are just two human beings that truly love each other. We stubbornly search for ways to improve our lives and we do not intend to change the world.

>>He writes, I make images. He is E, N, D, ENEDD. One, two and many more. We both created and run Dialogue With The Radio, the online version as well as the design of the book*. We just came back from a holiday, more sick than ever of flowers and sweet pieces of joyful empty sounds. We don’t want to filter our ideas anymore…not even a tiny bit.

“How talented are you? Can you speak your mind? I mean, what’s down under, not what’s floating in the shiny top of your very kind convinience.

Images speak out. This section invites you to do the same thing. Are you to it”.**

* We’re designing the book…please be patient about that, it’s a long process!

** Quote from >>the very first DWTR set.

I’ve been searching for other networks to share my work, other than Flickr or Redbubble, of which I’m fed up right now. I recognize these sites, and more particularly Flickr, have offered me great opportunities and widened up the spectrum of viewers, but their censorship policies, general content and users’ preferences upset me.

I just joined “Behance Network, creative portfolios, projects and collaborations”. Behance is the “Official Community Partner” of the 13th annual Webby Awards, the leading international award honoring excellence in interactive design, creativity, usability and functionality on the Internet. Indeed, looks very professional and much more open to diversity. I’ve been browsing there for a couple of hours and I’ve already found more than just a few very interesting painters, illustrators, photographers and designers! More importantly,  artists are free to upload their projects without an invisible hand censoring the slightest appearance of a nipple.

I do hope, however, that one day my website will work independently from other image-sharing sites. Which is why I decided to start posting stuff here more often, even if I don’t have very special news to share…like an exhibition or a publication or whatever…
