I am a second year PhD student with the University of the Philippines Archaeological Studies Program. I am an Assistant Professor at the University of the Philippines Film Institute where I teach acting, mainstream producing and the theory and practice of experimental filmmaking. I am also a working actor and filmmaker. Archaeology was a childhood passion and is now a second career for me. The focus of my doctorate is developing a cost effective aerial survey method that makes LiDAR and other remote sensing affordable for more archaeologists. Working in a tropical environment which is brutal to organic remains, I focus on looking for traces of human activity in the landscape itself. I am very interested in bringing audio-visual toolkits to both research practices and public archaeology.

IJSRA by Rob Rownd
At IJSRA, we work everyday on a voluntary basis to transform the academic publishing landscape, in our firm belief that authors should not have to pay for publishing, and that making research freely available to a global readership help address growing (academic) inequalities worldwide.
We aim to make an impact through an independent, unaffiliated, open-access student forum, without any submission, publication, or subscription fees.
Therefore, what better time to publish our second issue that in this merry Christmas Eve. We have an amazing variety of contents, including original fieldwork in Botswana, a model for undergraduate skills development, Indo-Greek coinage, heritage legislation in the Philippines, medieval perceptions and attitudes to health, a reassessment of Natufian sedentism, a Big Data cross-cultural analysis, a book review, and reviews of many conferences! We hope you enjoy reading these outstanding examples of student scholarship!
We are now accepting submissions for our third issues; we will be reviewing manuscripts on a rolling basis, so submit when you're ready! Recommended deadline: March 15th
As part of our constant efforts to reach as wide an audience as possible, we are always looking for people with diverse research interests to join our growing international team. If you are committed to improve the presence of excellent student scholarship in archaeology, please do get in touch!
