Kutitap has been for the last four years an annual festival of indigenous children to celebrate the diversity of cultures and traditions in the Philippines. This is a project of the Outreach department of the Cultural Center of the Philippines (CCP). The project gathered close to a hundred children coming from various indigenous people's communities in the islands of Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao as well as the national capital region and some communities assisted by the Gawad-Kalinga projects in urban poor areas of Metro Manila. Took these portraits of the children and some of the mentors during the cultural solidarity program on the first night of the festival. Doubled my shots with street scenes as I traveled from home to the CCP.

GPRehab is an educational center for children with disabilities in Dumaguete. I attended a session on puni or leaf art marking by Malolos-based folk artist Rheeza to staff and parents of the center. There were a few kids present during the workshop and I took portraits of them. Using a roll previously exposed with art collages, the resulting fusion of images came out like an artful exercise for the eyes. Come and take the visual challenge. Look closely at each lomograph and find out where the kids are. In some they are pretty much obvious while in others they are more inconspicuous.

Lomographed the 2011 Higantes Festival despite the celebratory water dousing in the streets of Angono. Well, I came prepared to get wet anyway. To make my shots distinct from my past documentation of this folk ritual that is rooted in protesting colonial abuses, I made doubles with textures and gave my roll a hot bath. Chemically risking my films with the possibility of destruction has been exciting me recently. Experiments really make lomography more fun. Plus the surprises you get are truly endless!

A week prior to the Mt. Apo climb, I and fellow mountaineers had our last physical training. We jogged around the Cultural Center of the Philippines complex several times. Hours before the training, as I traveled from Alabang to the CCP, I took wide-angled shots of random scenes I passed by. After the training I fed the same roll on my modified supersampler and just the same, took random shots of fancy. I was amazed to find out that the shots have mixed vertical orientation such that inverting a photo brings out a different image from the original. Such discovery only proves to me that we are somewhat programmed to see things with respect to the power of gravity - ie., all things are grounded or should at least be identifiable in reference to where the ground is (even if slightly visible or merely suggestive). This is also to say that our eyes easily detects anything with proper vertical orientation. Well, at least that's how I see. View this set as a visual exercise. Each photo is followed immediately by its exact inversion. Try to see what two different images are born of the same photo by simply turning it upside down. Have fun!
