  • Fall of Grace: Nora Aunor As Cinema 46
    Flores / Fall of Grace: Nora Aunor as Cinema 46 FALL OF GRACE: NORA AUNOR AS CINEMA Patrick D. Flores University of the Philippines [email protected] Abstract Nora Aunor is enlisted in this speculation as a medium in the register of both the cinema and the transmission of spirit. The key trajectory is the oft-cited film Himala, which opens up a conceptual space for mediumship, the technology of the actress, her biography and corpus of art, and the devotion to her person. The essay constellates a set of texts including the sculpture in honor of Elsa, the main character of Himala, the film Silip, and the life of a fan. Nora, the performative vessel of Elsa, becomes fundamentally cinematic. It is through her that Elsa is fleshed out as a miracle worker of vexing potency. Nora is herself a testament to the transformative potential of the technology of the cinema. Keywords devotion, film, image, medium, spirit, voice About the Author Patrick D. Flores is Professor of Art Studies at the Department of Art Studies at the University of the Philippines, which he chaired from 1997 to 2003, and Curator of the Vargas Museum in Manila. He is Adjunct Curator at the National Art Gallery, Singapore. He was one of the curators of Under Construction: New Dimensions in Asian Art in 2000 and the Gwangju Biennale (Position Papers) in 2008. He was a Visiting Fellow at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. in 1999 and an Asian Public Intellectuals Fellow in 2004.

Public awareness of political developments, Quezon City. @ fostered by these means and by independent media, email: scoronel cnl.net. eventually forced the main mass media to cover Estra- das impeachment trial, and it was the threat of the collapse of that trial that provoked mass demonstrations. These events illustrate some leading themes in the history of the Philippines mass media. Newspapers, radio and television have long been privately owned, and , 109 - 126 have developed into very market-oriented media. Most of the time, they are devoted to tabloid and sensational reporting, and they are mostly closely connected with large and diversified corporations. After a long period of repression by Ferdinand Marcos, his overthrow saw an explosion of genuinely independent media, although Vol.8 (2001),2 issues of ownership and traditions of bribing journalists put limits on what got reported. Estrada attempted to control the media more directly, particularly through systematic bribery, threatening the businesses of media owners with tax audits, and manipulating advertising. For some time, he was successful, but as public awareness of his crimes grew, so audiences demanded better mainstream coverage. The media were forced by their audiences to adopt a much more critical stance, and this opened the way for independent journalism.

Belacho3 De La Salle University, Philippines1,3 Far Eastern University, Philippines2 [email protected], [email protected], & [email protected] *correspondence: [email protected] DOI: 10.24071/llt.v24i1.2720 received 4 July 2020; accepted 9 October 2020 Abstract In Metro Manila, there are two sets of coded language that baffle and amuse their observant bystanders: The Filipino gay language and the idiom used by the Utility Vehicle (UV) Express drivers. A UV Express is an air-conditioned public utility vehicle that is classier than the more famous Philippine jeepneys. Through a reconstructive contextualization and reverse engineering of 100 randomly collected Filipino gay words and another 100 randomly collected UV Express codes, this paper compared and contrasted their themes and creations. This paper is significant in offering a comprehensive listing and descriptions of the processes involved in the creation of Filipino gay words. This paper is also significant in being the first academic journal article that deals with the UV Express codes of Metro Manila. Furthermore, the methodology of this paper in studying either the Filipino gay language or the Metro Manila UV Express codes can be used in studying the variant Filipino gay languages in other places of the Philippines.

    The Poverty Alleviation Program of the Estrada Administration Did the Estrada Administration THE ESTRADA ADMINISTRATION came to power with lavish pro-poor agenda. Benefit the Poor? It recognized the imperative of bringing broad-based rural development, led by agriculture, to win the war against poverty.
