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

vision. CCP has created the Cinemalaya Philippine

MURALS
Murals is a painting applied to and made with the
surface of the wall, façade, or concrete fences of a
structure. Before, walls were just plain and boring. Now,
they made it unique with the help of art. Also, 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. Here are some
examples of murals: 6

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
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.
Computer-aided design (CAD) is a way to digitally create 2D
drawings and 3D models of real-world products before they're
ever manufactured. With 3D CAD, you can share, review,
simulate, and modify designs easily, opening doors to
innovative and differentiated products that get to market fast.
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”. It is consist of artists who has
masterminded the works in Manila trick art museums like
Tutuban Virtual Zoo and Zeriland Trick Art Museum. The
largest trick art museum in Asia, “Art in Island” is located
in Quezon City.
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.
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
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.
