KAKAKOMPYUTER MO YAN is a new media zine on Filipino internet culture.
For our inaugural issue, we're interested in exploring personal and counter-narratives to Filipino internet history—naming the form of the 'Filipino internet'. We survey how we have grown alongside the internet and how it has shaped us, along with the questions of identity, politics, and networking that have risen as a result.
A naming to Filipino identity and how it exists online and offline in an era of technology. A celebration of local internet culture and histories. A recollection of how we gather around technology, digitally and physically. A love / hate / love / hate letter to the internet. An investigation of Filipino identity, our situation in the digital world, and the realms we've crafted. A preservation of old / new / emerging ways of being online.
Pitches for our first issue are now open until February 4, 2023. Take a look at our submission details and timeline here.
We welcome pitches, in-progress, and finished work from personal essays, interviews, mixes, games, interactive fiction, photos, screenshots, and everything in between. The sooner you pitch, the better.
