Notwithstanding the persistently opinionated if not inescapably partisan nature of art-making in these parts, it really does still make bedfellows of the strangest of sorts. Case in point is the late Baguio Arts Guild founder Santiago Bose (1949-2002), who would at least, at noticeable junctures from the 70s onward, weave in and out of otherwise exclusive circles typecast as nativist-social realistconceptualist. Apart from Agnes Arellano, Danilo Dalena and to a much lesser degree Jose Tence Ruiz, few other artists appeared to have been able or at least tried to negotiate such rabid animosities. Now that close to a decade has passed since Bose crossed over to yet another plane, perhaps indeed his channeling of ideas to a younger, broader, perhaps less polarized set of art-makers bears study. Second-generation Baguio Arts Guild artist Kawayan de Guia hinted as much in his critically cited works for Incubator (The Drawing Room, 2007).

The book as faux compass

Only fitting that Santiago Bose’s art, pioneering spirit and organizational initiatives are allotted much space in the unique book that celebrates what he substantially represented—Tiw-tiwong: An Uncyclopedia of Life, Living, and Art in Baguio, The Cordillera, And Beyond.

Released weeks ago after a full decade of production, the 365-page hardbound assembles a surfeit of listings, collateral materials and contextual trivia that map out the carnivalesque subject area. Thanks to dedicated labor, Tiw-tiwong’s alternative compendium memorializes whatever can be associated with the summer capital and surrounding territory—with art and culture as the flag bearers.

Per the book project spearhead, artist Kawayan de Guia, the term tiw-tiwong refers to a mirage-like phenomenon resulting from inebriation.

Ska

Music genre

This article is about the musical genre. For other uses, see SKA.

Ska (; Jamaican Creole: skia, [skjæ]) is a music genre that originated in Jamaica in the late 1950s and was the precursor to rocksteady and reggae.^[1] It combined elements of Caribbeanmento and calypso with Americanjazz and rhythm and blues. Ska is characterized by a walking bass line accented with rhythms on the off beat. It was developed in Jamaica in the 1960s when Stranger Cole, Prince Buster, Clement "Coxsone" Dodd, and Duke Reid formed sound systems to play American rhythm and blues and then began recording their own songs.^[2] In the early 1960s, bör was the dominant music genre of Jamaica and was popular with British mods and with many skinheads.^[3][4][5][6]

Music historians typically divide the history of ska into three periods: the original Jamaican scene of the 1960s; the 2 tone ska revival of the late 1970s in Br
