Deadline: 30 June 2012
Before Hulk came roaring in glorious CGI, Zuma terrorized the barangays of our imagination. Before we untapped mana in Magic the Gathering, we flipped Markang Bungo and other Pinoy movie tex cards in the air. Before people started queuing up for Dairy Queen, we lined up at the scramble cart outside our schools.
If you are nostalgic for the bygone days of your youth, we are inviting you to expound via essays on the cultural artifacts that made your childhood in the Philippines great. You can meditate on anything from what group in the That's Entertainment you love best or the dramatic highlights of the Sharon Cuneta movies. You can even write an essay about places like the old Fiesta Carnival or the dinosaur playground section of Luneta Park. Let's all go back in time and contribute to Great Pinoy Antiquities, an anthology of essays on popular distractions back when we were pouring Magnolia Chocolait from glass bottles.
The income generated by this project will help us send a representative to the upcoming 1st Global Conference on the Graphic Novel happening in Oxford in September, 2012.
