October 2017: SACADA: A CATALOG OF COMMODITIES FROM A PERIOD OF GLORIOUS TUMULT

[K.D., Founder]

Guys, natin sa buwan na ito ng Oktubre 2017 ang "Sacada" ni Alan Navarra. Kakapanayamin natin siya sa Nobyembre 4, 2017.

May nakita akong kopya nito sa FullyBooked SM Megamall last week.

Kung may komento kayo tungkol sa libro, pakisulat na lang sa thread na ito. Kung gusto ninyong mag-discuss tayo (online - dito), sabihin nyo lang at sisimulan ko.

[Ronie]

May dahilan ba kung bakit sa Fully Booked lang ito nakikita?

[K.D., Founder]

Baka hindi maganda ang contract sa NBS?

[Apokripos]

Ang bongga!

It's been some time since I last did a GR discussion. Yass!

[Neil Franz]

Exclusive na yata sa Fullybooked ang Visprint?

First question: What do you think is the use of the price tags in this catalog? Answer please.

[Cris]

Price tags cld mean the issue is more significant (or at least ts been given more importance than it needs).

[Cris]

Pwede ring to signify how grave the issue is. If we commodify our experiences, the values may highly depend on how unique, stale, or life-changing these experiences are. Pwede ring how in-demand it is, the text being more than an expression of experience but an aphorism. Mas kailangan ng tao (na malaman/mabasa) mas mahal.

Maria, that's right. We talked with him yesterday during the panayam. He told us that those prices were how he felt during the time he wrote/created the commodities. Kasi, tinanong namin kung anong basis dahil may simple lang pero mahal. Mayroon naman elaborate yong artwork pero mura. May mga events pala sa buhay niya doon sa mga mahal na items. He does not write or create his arts daw pang masaya siya.
