A. YES! We are a food band, and we would love to be known as a food band. In fact, I think we are much more comfortable cooking for an audience than playing music for an audience. Food is essential, no doubt about it. We tag team the house, when one of us is in the studio, the other is in the kitchen. We prefer simple healthy food, dark green vegetables, potatoes, nice cheese, good whole-grain bread, sweet ripe fruit, almonds, mushrooms, red wine. One of our favorite dishes is ‘hoppin’ John’ which is the good luck food of the south consisting of collard greens and black-eyed peas. Awesome. And Paul is the pie man." - (FAQ, the booksmusic.com)

Passage: Tad Ermitaño's first solo exhibit

"End Frame Video Art Project 3: Present," a Philippine video art festival, commences this month as the third edition and new format of the video art festival which took place in 2006 and 2007. Presented by Visual Pond, the theme "Present" refers to the current project’s focus on selected Philippine contemporary artists’ practices in video art. Throughout the festival, each artist stages a show presenting new video work in various venues from January 2011 to January 2012.

The festival proudly launches with "Passage," a solo exhibition by Tad Ermitaño, opening on January 15 at Pablo Gallery, Fort Bonifacio. A site-specific work responsive to the two rooms of Pablo and the stairs between them, "Passage" utilizes multiple projections and video mapping technology in a crossover of fairy tales and science fiction. Ermitaño, who has studied philosophy, biology and filmmaking, has participated in several local and international group exhibitions and film festivals, including the 2002 videoart.mov, the 2004 Hong Kong International Film Festival, the 2006 Ogaki Biennale, the 2007 Dime a Dozen at Lopez Museum, the 2008 Inter-society of Electronic Arts juried exhibition and recently, the Hear to Ear exhibition of Fete dela Wsk. "Passage" marks the first solo exhibition of this media artist, running until 29 January 2011 with a closing talk by the artist at 5:30 pm.

Pablo Gallery, located at C-11 South of Market Condominium, 11th corner 26th Avenue, Fort Bonifacio, Taguig, is open Tuesday to Saturday from 12 noon to 7:00 pm, tel. no. (632) 506-0602. Other confirmed artists presenting new works for End Frame 3 include Manny Montelibano, Claro Ramirez, Kiri Dalena and Kaloy Olavides with the full schedule and line-up to be announced soon. For inquiries on the project, call +63917-5357955 or email visualpond@gmail.com. "Passage" is with thanks to Green Papaya Art Projects.
