Today I was told that we could see a meteor in the sky, between 0:30 and 2:30 am. I'm living on a hilltop here in Rio and decided to climb the roof to try to see this phenomenon. The sky was partially cloudy and I had no patience to stay the whole time up there, then tell the truth I just look back to bed without any meteor, but before going down I saw something interesting. The neighbor was on his balcony, alone, looking at the view (Guanabara Bay and the lights do Flamengo), drinking some beer and listening to " Song of the airplane . " 1 am. Sensational.
And then came the thought that this feeling of neighbor is only possible here in Rio and that only we can feel. I do not know when I say "we" I'm thinking of Brazilian or Rio, but definitely understand the music is key to whatever this feeling.
I was thinking about these things because I have several friends gringos who come here and go crazy with the city. Even without understanding what people are talking, and especially what the words of the songs that they like so they say. Imagine if they understood? And suddenly gave me a kind of pity them for it because it's so good, right? I think I live and feel the river, listening to anything from Tom Jobim, João Gilberto, Paulinho da Viola, is a sensation so unique, so special, that I would somehow try to pass that feeling to them. But I think that is impossible.

Now c'mon ... I was about 8 months without writing the blog to return to that post. Sorry if most of silly. But I felt like talking about it here:)

In late November I presented a paper at IxDA Interaction South-America in 2009 speaking about Information Design applied to business. It is a case study, based on a design that participated this year. Conclude the presentation saying that there is room in the market to be occupied by designers who understand the processes that are able to explain through images the problems of enterprises.
For those who want to read the article is here . The presentation is below.
