It consists of several trial-and-error attempts until the result is achieved. Thus, the outcomes are original, unique, and innovative productions. Take for example the images in activity 5.1. The performances of the different contingents of Sinulog Festival are by-products of experimentations and innovations. Another example is the shadow play group El Gamma Penumbra’s performance in Asia’s Got Talent. The group has won the hearts of the masses because of their unique https://www.choosephilippines.com/culture/people/2926/el-gamma-penumbra- presentation, experimental visuals, asias-got-talent-finals and powerful themes and messages. In, experimental cinema, there are independent films, better known as indie films. This kind of film is usually produced with (sometimes without) a relatively small production outfit, thus, requiring the minimal production budget. It is also called art film for it bears the filmmaker’s personal artistic vision. CCP has created the Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival. This festival showcases various indie films during the months of July and August where ten filmmakers compete for the prestigious Balanghai Award. In visual design, performance art (also called art in action or “happenings”) is usually done in public where an artist or several members perform artwork on-the- spot. If the project is done on a sidewalk or part of the street, it is temporary. Artists are also allowed to paint along cemented fences or walls of institutions where their murals can remain permanent. This type of art is also rampant in many schools here in Cebu and the neighboring provinces. Usually, a paint company in a form of sponsorship partnered with the artist would make this project possible. Parks have been the starting point of experimental art forms, like the lights and sound show which is popular in the major cities in the country. This innovative production started in France in the 1950’s and is called “Son et Lumiere”. It is a form of outdoor nighttime entertainment consisting of the special lighting effects accompanied by synchronized music. 6  http://thewalkingtripod.blogspot.com/2012/03/luneta-park-dancing-musical-fountain.html Digitalization Innovations of digital technology has given rise to new directions in the arts. To enjoy arts, we do not even have to get out of our seat. Instantaneously, we can easily download them through several apps and sites. Social media has greatly helped in propagating arts. Digital technology is the new medium. It has solved many challenges of the artists from the previous decades in all art forms to enhance, supplement, or sometimes , replace the content, form, and style of their works. Take for example in the field of architecture and design, The CAD (Computer Aid Design) has taken over and replaced the work of a draftsman. This program does the architectural or engineering drawings of the professional architect or engineer that will become the blueprint for construction resulting to more efficient production in hitting the target date. In visual design, there are variations of software programs that can be used which will allow you to create digital art. Some software programs are InkScape, GIMP, MS Paint, and Adobe Photoshop. To create video productions, there are Windows Movie Maker, Sony Vegas, Adobe Premiere, Adobe After Effects, and Macro Media Flash. 3D animation can be produced using Blender. Interactive art is one notable innovation in experimental art. In this type of art, the spectator can literally be part of the artwork. Oftentimes. The intensity of the art depends on the participation and interpretation of the spectator. Optical art is the most popular kind of interactive art or better known as “3D art” or “trick art”.Guhit Visual Arts Group – a former university based visual arts group pioneered 7  in the 3D art in our country. It consists of artist who have masterminded the works in Manila trick art museums like Tutuban Virtual Zoo and Seriland Trick Art Museum. Several trick art museums have opened in the country, with a small number nestling in Metro Manila, two in Boracay and in Cebu. The largest trick art museum in Asia, Art in Island, is located in Quezon City. https://www.bitlanders.com/blogs/the-miracle-art-happy-world-museum-in-cebu/5574467 https://adrenalineromance.com/2014/02/16/cebu-happy-world-museum-where-wonderful-artworks-come-to-life/ In literature, there are e-books, animated poetry, interactive fiction, and hypertext fiction and poetry. Frank G. Rivera, a theater director and playwright, popularized a poetry series that is written and read on mobile phones called “textula”. Choreography also uses technology for dance notations and interactive techniques, breeding a new form of choreographic practice. Social media also helped a lot in getting a broader scope of audience in showcasing different kinds of choreography. 8  Musicians nowadays use digital music to devise new forms of expression. Technology is being utilized for recording, mixing, storing, editing, and performing music. Music broadcasting can easily be accessed by listener through apps like Soundcloud and Spotify. Thus, local musicians are now able to reach a larger number of audiences here and abroad. Theater and cinema use technology to enhance and innovate visual, lighting and sound effects together with the performers onstage or on the screen. Digital technology has changed the art scenery in creating multimedia forms. It is the new medium of the arts. https://www.vectorstock.com/royalty-free-vector/blue-spotlights-with-white- https://blog.teufelaudio.com/dolby-atmos-3d-sound-experience/ podium-on-dark-backgrou-vector-19305461 Activity 1.2 “Best of Cebu 3D Art” Choose from either of the following subjects: heritage, iconic person, indigenous material, events, places, or structure that is best known here in the island of Cebu.
