About the Video:  Qtv news report on a "pre-elections conversation" at St. Scholastica's College, featuring three alternative contenders for the presidency: Nicky Perlas, JC de los Reyes, and Gov. Grace Padaca
Content summary:  Reporter says "Nicanor Perlas was introduced as a man from the academe, a consultant to many organizations including agencies of the United Nations. Perlas says that just because a candidate is part of the Opposition or against the Arroyo administration, it doesn't mean the person can make a difference. So he urges the people to discern and consider alternative candidates." Nicky is shown saying that a traditional politician gives us an idea of what it will take to create a different national elections process and change this country.

About the Video:  Nicky announces his 2010 presidential bid
Content summary:  Nicky talks about the principle of subsidiarity as a new sense of governance to empower Filipinos in the barangay level to create their own vision.
We don't have a party system based on principle in the Phils; we need a political system na hindi nakabatay sa isang tao, kung hindi sa ating lahat, sama-sama, tayo ang babago sa Pilipinas.

About the Video:  Shows Nicky facilitating a Pag-asa workshop, discussing the role of art and culture in transforming society
Content summary:  Nicky talks about people as the basis of structure or systems of society.  To change systems, we need to change the identities that give form to these systems.  Best way? Through art, which is usually trivialized as pure entertainment, but it has a revolutionary power! It's the source of the new!  A person as not just IQ--logical, mathematical, linguistic intelligence.  But modern research shows that a human being has 11 intelligences-- --art activates these different intelligences.  We can't change the system using past methods--we need to use deeper methods.  Through art, we can trigger the release of these suppressed creative energies.  Rizal was a person of multiple intelligences--Individual Filipinos have the potential to be renaissance men!
