Streetprint Manila is a research project that is part of a larger research endeavour called “Six Continents and Between”. Initiated by Prof. Gary Kelly of the University of Alberta, 6CAB seeks to investigate popular print culture across various geographical, sociocultural, and ethnolinguistic contexts. More specifically, it aims to look at reading patterns and preferences of the Filipino Everyman, or those whom we would largely consider members of the “masa” class.
For example, when the Barretto sisters, members of a popular showbiz clan, were engaged in in-fighting, magazines did interviews for each of the siblings involved over a number of issues. Some members of their extended family, including cousins and in-laws, were also interviewed.
