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.
The city of Manila is one of sixteen cities that make up Metro Manila. It is the capital city of the Philippines, and is the second largest city in the country. Based on the 2010 national census, Manila is home to a population of 1.8 million people. At roughly 111,000 people per square mile, Manila is the most densely populated city in the world.
