Transforming Music into Images: Royal Republic Magdeburg

Introduction

My name is Alejandro Castellanos. I'm a nonprofessional photographer studying Mechatronics in Germany. My greatest passion in life is M U S I C and everything that has to do with it: from playing the guitar to designing the circuitry of a pedal. Being an engineer has made me used to observe, analyze and quantify. I have been taught to systemize my life in order to achieve the maximum efficiency, constantly searching for the option that maximizes the output. I am formulaic, periodic, clyclic... almost a machine.

Music is a way to feel human again. Its the vehicle through which humanity pours back into me. Its the only way that I can feel my body connecting with my S O U L, and thus, feeling as complete one can be. One cannot quantify or mechanize art, because it breathes in a different dimension! One thing is sure: it can be appreciated. That's what this blog is about: Feeling the music, trapping the moment... Transforming Music into Images. Making it possible to experience a simple note, or a beautiful harmony, all inside the constant limits of pictures.

Royal Republic @Madeburg, DE

Date: 15.10.2011

Venue: The Factory

This is the band that started it all, since they are the first band that I ever Officially took pictures of. The concert was part of the "We are the Royal" tour. I had such a nice experience meeting the band and attending the concert. At first, I was really nervous beause I didnt want to screw up "my frist gig", so I took all the precautions that I could imagine: empty your memory card and charge the battery. I think the end result was good to be my first attempt at Concert Photography. I hope you enjoy the pictures!
