    paper Querido (Dear) (2025)

    Why keep to ourselves those words we share so often, yet long for?

    “Querido” (Dear) is a message for ourselves, those words we share and give but forget to say to ourselves in front of the mirror. A reminder that what is most important and valuable lies within us.

    paper Fragmentos (2021)

    Final Degree Project by Agustín Castaño Rodríguez, completed in 2021.

    “Fragments” is a compilation of three tracks for the musical accompaniment of an original audiovisual work. It draws on characteristics present in traditional Colombian music, using specific formats that incorporate elements of both traditional and urban music, with the aim of exploring their use in audiovisual materials.
