Santiago Citta Aperta

Italia Square is the invisible border of this city. If you live above Plaza Italia , you will belong to Chilean Upper Class, "la gente como uno", etc ( hypothetically). But If you have the bad luck of living below Plaza Italia, you will be part of the underqualified national work force or a member of the social climbist middle class. That is to say, if you are not part of them, you are a stranger, an outcast or a shadow... hard to explain because this is a cultural issue rather than something which can be explained empirically or something like that. / Plaza Italia: si vives arriba eres de la " gente como uno" si vives abajo, eres de los " otros", si no cabes en nunguna categoria, eres un alien... que dificil es vivir en Chile!

Error

An error is a fossilized mistake that is already set in our linguistic perfomance. By example, when non native speakers of English say people is instead of people are ( shame on me). Here, the picture shows a literal error, because this guy has been tattoed Boz instead of Voz, therefore, he must live with an envident misspelling for the rest of his life. That is a real and fossilized error./ Este tipo se tatuó un error ortografico, porque escribió boz en vez de voz... eso si que es una fosilizacion.
