1. Nobody is uneducated: A wide definition of culture is useless except when we need to distinguish what the human being does compared to the rest of the living beings. Nobody is uneducated. The human being says the human being is the most intelligent being known. And that intelligence produces, stores and distributes the culture in Earth.
2. If your head is cut off, there will not be no culture: From a restricted definition, culture is something refine, noble, that allows a certain level of transcendence and existential joy. In this sense not every human being is educated. This discrimination capacity, locates us in the delicate territory where tradition, power, education, etc are mixed together. Some occidental human beings evaluate, produce and distribute this kind of culture.
3. Culture is the hobby of death: As occidental human beings, Los Torreznos are interested in culture since we were little, we do not leave it even when we sleep, we take part of the show, we love other living beings, we mix with uneducated people, and that is the reason why we make this show.
