100 x hora
2021.
100 x hora es un relato montado sobre una secuencia fotográfica de la carretera Mexicali – San Felipe y la voz de Polo Vega.
El texto está basado en imágenes de la Galería de la Imaginación Anti-Confinamiento de Ale Librada Torres Salcedo y en la canción 100 x hora de María Daniela y su Sonido Lasser.
Lo escribí pensando en la pérdida; la de mi abuela, de Ale, de un romance que se me acabó esos días; en la muerte y el agua – su poder sanador. Platicamos (ella, yo y las pérdidas) muy a la distancia. Nos escapamos al delta, a la Laguna Salada y al golfo. Polo también se sube al carro, cuando se lo lee con cariño y juega con la música. Elma va de copiloto y pone la canción con la que manejamos al escape anti-confinamiento.

100 x hour is a short story assembled from a photographic sequence of the Mexicali – San Felipe highway, with the voice of Polo Vega.
The text is based on images from the Anti-Confinement Imagination Gallery by Ale Librada Torres Salcedo and on the song “100 x hora” by María Daniela y su Sonido Lasser.
I wrote it thinking about loss; that of my grandmother, of Ale, of a romance that ended those days; of death and water – its healing power. We talked from a distance. We escaped to the delta, to Laguna Salada and to the gulf of California. Polo also got in the car, when he read it with affection and played with the music. Elma was the co-pilot and played the song as we drove into our escape.
