Once upon a time…
…a few kids decided to throw a party in conjunction with Sinulog, a religious festival on the Philippine island of Cebu.
But it was more than chance that grew the crowd from 400 people to 50,000. It was a unique blend of history, passion, devotion, and love for life and music that made this one of the most pivotal events in verge culture history.
Avicii, bottles of Patron, face paint, whistle blowing, and dancing — all topped off with the “Pit Senyor” chant over Hip Hop, house, and dubstep beats that the crowd spontaneously erupted into every fifteen minutes.
Church.

Through my eyes — and the lens of the Samsung Multiview the @statusmagazine Team handed me at the door of the Ayala Museum last Saturday.
(Except for the last picture. That one was taken by my daughter, Kaya. Baym.)
Shouts to my homegirl Rosario Herrera, head honcho at Status, for being the change we seek. Love you, woman. Stay inspired.
