This is a video documentation of the launch of my three books on August 16, 2012 at the auditorium of the College of Mass Communication, University of the Philippines (UP) Diliman, Quezon City. The books are titled Kon(tra)teksto: Pag-uungkat, Pag-uulat at Pagmumulat (DLSU Publishing House); Hay, Buhay! Reklamong Todo-todo Mula sa Nag-aalboroto (UP Press); and Saysay ng Pagkakaugnay-ugnay: Mga Sanaysay ng Pagninilay-nilay (UST Publishing House).

I thank my friends at Kodao Productions, Inc. for preparing this two-part video which I embedded from the organization’s YouTube channel. (Disclosure: I am board secretary of Kodao and I used to be a co-host/scriptwriter of its radio program “Sali Na, Bayan! [Join Us Now, People!]” which still airs on DZUP 1602 kHz [AM station] from Monday to Friday, 2:00-3:00 p.m.)
