Blog presentation

Hello everyone,
this blog was created to understand how to change the meaning of the terms regular and irregular in relation to different cultures. We have sought in various fields of study, from art to food, exploring the philosophy and everyday objects.
Through pictures, videos and texts we have tried to show how the boundary between these two concepts. We want to explain how to first approach the two concepts seem totally opposite but in reality are very close, depending on your point of view of people and the culture they grew up.
Some of the posts are that they want to provoke thought and invite people to accept diversity.

Thanks to all
