There were many things in this video that you can apply to everyday life. The video opens up with Rual Cuero talking about how he was a kid and how he used to just heavily observe and study things to help him learn (the roaches in his grandmas house). Being a good observer can help you a lot in your daily life because you will start to notice the beauty and interesting things that are around you that you were once blind to. Raul also talks about his claim to fame witch was his perseverance and his drive to try as hard as possible. This can also be applied to every day life because if you try as hard as you can, great things can happen like what happened to Raul with all his scientific inventions that positively impacted the world ( fruit with more antioxidants, things to help oil spills ext.)
Raul also talks about having a "universal conscious" and how it helps overcome obstacles in life. He says when you are universal you can overcome prejudice and you are not limited by society what what it tells you to do. If everyone applied this concept to everyday life, the world would be a freer and better place and new ideas that may have never be surfaced could come up and positively impact your environment. Along with having a universal conscious, Raul states that it was his creativity that helped him overcome many of the obstacles that he has faced in his life. He says that you need to surprise and do more than what other people expect from you, and that it when your creativity starts to flow the most. Again, in everyday life if I were to do this and try to exceed everyones expectations with my creativity and be more unpredictable, I could produce better art/projects and also ideas that could benefit my life and the peoples around me.

Juan Carlos Art comments :
My initial reaction to Juan Carlos's art was that is was very abstract and interesting. The one video titled FKA twigs- Pendulum really got my attention with the warping faces and the creepy music. As the video progresses the woman's face gets more and more distorted until it returns back to normal at the end. I like how he uses a combination of different types of media to produce his art including photos, paintings and videos.
The photo titled "Mas Surrealista Que Los Suenos" portrayed a lot of emotion. I liked how its in black and white and how that corresponds to the emotion of the photo with the woman getting suffocated by the large ball. Her facial expression shows that she is trying hard to break free or escape, so in the bigger picture the photo could be a metaphor for someone trying to get rid of a bad habit that is holding them back from the real world or from their family.
