To be part of the nation is to care about what happens to it. -- Randy David

To be part of the nation is to care about what happens to it. It is to see our personal lives as inextricably linked to its successes and failures. This identification allows us not only to share in the glory of the nation’s achievements, but also to feel accountable for its ruin.

-- Randy David (13 June 2009, The Philippine Daily Inquirer)

The Philippine Flag Project 2009


The Philippine Flag Project — June 12, 2009


This is a social project on three variables:


the internet as a medium

x

nationalism

x

Philippine design culture.


The objective is to have a massive display of nationalism Philippine-style on the net via Facebook this June 12, 2009.


DIRECTIONS: Download a copy of the flag from Wikipedia and use this as your profile picture on your Facebook account this June 12 to 13 so that we cover most of the time zones (well, most importantly, June 12). Make sure to adjust the thumbnail well so it looks ok. Make sure to tell your friends!


Maraming salamat! — BrianTenorio.com

On the relativity of size

Nasanay kasi tayo sa malaki kaya ang di-malaki ay itinuturing nang maliit and at ang tunay na maliit ay hindi na nababanggit. Ano na ang nangyari sa regular-sized?

[We've gotten used to "big" that is why not-big is considered "small". Whatever happened to "regular-sized"?]
