Great docu

Watched this HBO Sports documentary series on GMA 7 last night. This is a must-see not just for Pacquiao or Hatton fans but also for media students out there. Great photography, great writing, great editing, great everything. This is a documentary you’d love to watch over and over again. (Watch the trailer from YouTube I posted in my video box here.)

By now you know that Pacquiao knocked out Hatton in just two rounds. (I still have to watch the match on free TV, though, as of “press” time.) Going back to the docu after the fight is like enjoying the icing on the cake.

Dream

I’m happy for Claire and John, my colleagues at UP Mindanao, who will soon be leaving for The New School in New York City. Claire will be in the MA in Media Studies program, while John will be doing his MFA in Creative Writing. Both got Ford Fellowships to pursue their dreams. Good luck, guys!

Media arts, part 2

And here is something I’d like our students to be part of someday!

Except that fees for institutional membership is way too high for our department budget. Someday, though, we’ll be able to link up with the New Media Consortium.
