MY TASTE... (Human Elective Assignment 1)


My tastes in audio arts are Original Pilipino Music and Instrumentals.  As a "person who sings", I love songs made by Filipino artists.  Filipino songs go straight to the hearts of everyone when sung—that’s how I see it.  Filipino songs, especially love songs, are more romantic and more emotional.  I relate to some of the songs.  As an instrumentalist (I play flute), I appreciate and love listening instrumental music as well as playing my craft.  I love these two audio arts not because I only listen, but also because I do them as well.

My tastes in visual arts are in the field of painting, drawing, and photography.   When I was in grade school, I used to be our school’s cartoonist and poster maker participant in every intra and inter-school competitions.  As time passed by, my talent tarnished.  I ventured new skill/field—music.  But when I see paintings and caricatures anywhere, the feeling comes back.  When I have leisure time, I always try to draw or paint something (I use pastel color).  It was late in my college life when I appreciate the beauty of photography.  I believe that photography is not just taking pictures but also taking memories—making memories live in every shot.  I appreciate pictures that depict emotions.  I am blown away by different pictures that tell stories.

My taste in audio visual arts is circus performances—Cirque Du Soleil.  Circus takes me to another world.  I feel their effort when they perform.   I love seeing them exaggerating their costumes, makeups, and facial expressions as if they are free people doing free things performing on stage.  Sometimes I feel I’m doing their stunts together with beautiful mix of music—aerobatics and maneuvers.
