The Team RP-Flippyknows Bloggers Night also served as the launch of Flippyknows’ FLIP the MIC sessions, where creative souls showcase their performances in the true spirit for sharing and creative collaboration.
First off in the lineup was Paul Zialcita, a percussionist and performance artist who fuses percussion, Filipino Martial Arts, and recycled instruments. In this performance, Paul uses a five-gallon mineral water bottle mounted on an andador (rattan baby walker) and the Kali Drum, a large drum made of mylar and a large garbage can. The Kali Drum is called such because it is played using patterns and techniques from the Filipino Martial Arts–referred to as kali, escrima, or arnis.
Next off was Flippyknows founders, producers, and musicians Miko Pepito and Nityalila Saulo, doing a funky spoken word + acoustic performance called “Piling-Pili at Pinong-Pino.”
And here is Jeff Pagaduan performing an original piece.
THANKS TO FLIPPYKNOWS FOR RECORDING AND POSTING THESE VIDEOS!
‘Till the next collaboration… and the next blogging event!
On October 15th bloggers everywhere will publish posts that discuss poverty in some way. By all posting on the same day we aim to change the conversation that day, to raise awareness, start a global discussion and add momentum to an important cause.
WHY?
Every blogger has a unique voice, audience and perspective. By speaking to their readers on topic about an important issue we can discuss global issues like poverty in a new and hugely multi-faceted way. And from discussion springs action.
