The most interesting band for me was Pan, the new band of Dong Abay, known for Yano. Unfortunately I could not make out the lyrics. I'm sure they were very good.
The music was bad, but at least the spectacle was entertaining, and I got to meet indiefilipino staffers and members - the gang of Joey Brash. After the event I talked with friends about plans to bridge the gap between artists and patrons with the tech stuff I do. We went to Big Sky Mind where some other scene people hung out (to detox?) after the Awards.
For the tech, I spent today studying a bunch of stuff that I'll be documenting at techscene. It's all related to pushing bits, and that's what I want to do for the arts and the indie scene!
Looks like MMS Messaging has some interesting uses. The old adage of pornography driving technology is showing true again. I don't need the multimedia, or the camera, right now, but if entertainment apps are driving it, then I could jump in!
Michael Tan provoked my thoughts with his column on Social Capital. It makes me realize that techies have a responsibility towards society. Since I'm dabbling into media now, it's close to the tangible representation of intangible culture.
