    1. How does the art chosen create the concept/idea of power? Prove by identifying the
    components or characteristics of the art.
    Rock has taken into an innumerable number of forms and expressions throughout the
    millenium; and to say that political groups, movements, or even simple participation are
    involved in the matter are an understatement, because for one, they also proliferated some of
    the most infamous genres we have, which are punk and metal. Subgenres continue to form,
    prolonging the prevalence of these genres, and even in the 21st century, many still take
    inspiration from history to create their own pieces of sound or fuse other genres, yet somehow
    their messages of democracy and desire for change remain the same. Rock in its core simply
    has that emotional aggressiveness in it, a passion for expression that includes instrumentation
    wanting to be both daring and brazen; something that Dicta License has recreated themselves.
    As an alternative rap rock album, Paghilom surprisingly has one of the most eloquent and
    expertly uses of Filipino figurative language. It separates its political topics with in its songs,
    creating a coherence on the country’s state and its need for change. A few notable tracks
    include Daloy ng Kamalayan, evoking that if we don’t change now, the country and the
    people’s fate will be left behind. Enemy, a conscious reflection of what impedes us to act.
    Lastly, Sugat, a sympathetic perspective to those who have fought for the good of the country
    and how these wounds also include and affect everyone.
    2. How does art affect you as a youth in the 21st century? How does art reinforce or
    change your idea/concept of power?

    There’s pretty much one takeaway to all of it: You’ll learn from the work one away or
    another. At times, there are works of art alluding to a certain event of history. Others will
    propose their opinions or perspective on a certain matter. Some even challenge the audience to
    think, leaving them with a complex rhetoric. We, the youth, are inevitably hungry for
    information, and we have the power to easily access it. This includes the effortless access to art,
    and with art, also comes the effortless access to learn on perspectives about power: Because
    one things for sure, as the technological age has alternatively become an exchange of
    perspectives or opinions, we also develop the same things for numerous reasons. I am part of
    this phenomenon, as I frequently argue with people on the internet about certain topics; topics
    convicted due to the easiness of the internet, including music. Internet knowledge and behavior
    will inevitably transpose to one’s image and identity.
