Taking Art to the Next Level: TCL NXTFRAME TV Becomes a Canvas for Secret Fresh Artists

Well loved electronics brand TCL recently held an exhibit at the Ronac Art Center with the home grown Secret Fresh Artists dubbed as "Seamless Art, Beyond Space" utilizing their newest television model the TCL NXTFRAME TV. While some of the artwork there were already so colorful and thought provoking, the utilization of these devices brings a remarkable and immersive experience bleeding what seems to be the best immersive experience you can possibly imagine in an LG product. Artists Chill, Reynold Dela Cruz, RA Tijing and Ronson Culbrina turned to LG when they matched it to be like pop art, making much of the colorful characters and scenes feel and look very dynamic at any angle... it was quite amazing!

Joseph Cernichez the TCL Brand Manager mentioned that "Blending art and tech must have been a very tall order, but the pop art theme was a great equalizer as it levels the playing field and uses some crazy vibrant colors. This makes their works of art pretty cool at any space; and we've tried it ourselves just to see how creative you can go with the device. I must say, it just asks for a museum caretaker because of how realistic it looks like, and in some parts, it was even better. 

Chill was grateful for the chance to do this at the Ronac Art Center with TCL. Since it's a partnership, he wants to see how they can conquer new heights especially in the local art industry. He likened his work called "A Gamer's Journey" to put it out there and see how we've become witnesses to making the switch from analog to digital age, and connected this inspiration with his gaming hobby too. He has different facets and is just waiting for the right one to see him succeed. The piece called *Different Vision" is from Reynold Dela Cruz. He is a mood, one that creates artwork that stems from life, his dreams and aspirations, and find putting them in creatures to send messages across subliminally. His piece is quite complex in his messaging, but having it on the NXTFRAME TV's made it more interesting. 

The cute characters of artist RA Tijing would make you stare at his work for hours. It's a mix of pop, realism, some of which even had social messaging. This was unearthed from his dreams and experiences, he does this on a personal level and gets inspired from people he talks to in his travel. There's a story behind every element, and the TCL NXTFRAME TV gives him more vibrant color on screens, it makes what he does pop especially the BamBam and Friends series where he draws characters in. Ronson Culbrina on the other hand is a genius in this craft, he's done countless shows here and other parts of the globe . He's quite young, but gets inspired by fatherhood. He loved how the exhibit showcased his art into technology.

TCL NXTFRAME TV: Change the Mood at Home with Artwork and AI

TCL takes on art and combines technology to put in your entertainment area. They did this by launching the new NXTRAME TV A300 Series. This is different because its high tech features, something that would serve even the meticulous ones when it comes to interior design.

The NXTFRAME TV's are as thin as artwork frams, you can either put it on a stand, on the wall, even hang it up like landscapes. Choose your artist, even if it's from centuries ago and you can have their work displayed anytime of the day, any day of the week. If you prefer a different look, you can opt to have AI compose you an artwork (via AI Generator) just by putting in your preferred words, and the artist inspiration, so it can get AI to produce you one. Else, you can use your own personal photos, your family photos, or images that you would like displayed, seamless like in a museum. It is bright, colors get intense if you wish, and fit it into modern living spaces and framed just right.

Speaking of frames, you can opt to have it without borders, or have magnetized clasps to serve as frames and is available in different colors. You can purchase that separately, but the ones I saw were in birch and white. The A300W and A300 Pro is ready to elevate your space, the flat and slim design means you can fit it in any wall, armoire, so you can mount and enjoy its features. The stand is movable, no reason you couldn't do it yourself when putting it out for the first time. It is sold separately though.

You can opt to have it with the Bang and Olufsen Ultra Slim Wireles Soundbar so those movies would be as immersive as you imagined. They are showcasing it from October 20 to 31 at the Ronac Art Museum, you should check it if you are in the area.

Ginebra San Miguel Celebrates 190 Years with Archangel Reserve

Everyone was in a celebratory mood when we arrived at the ballroom of Novotel Araneta City. To mark Ginebra San Miguel's 190th Anniversary, they had us experience heritage, culture and the good things they whip up at their plants all these years.

Outside was a plethora of memorabilia, including age old bottles they use to contain their products, and how it evolved all through the years. While undoubtedly knowing its Filipino roots, the technology and corporate beginnings have all started in Manila in 1834. It was family owned, then spread throughout the country via major cities. It started a tradition, and products became high quality yet remained affordable. From their Ginebra San Miguel, GSM line, Premium Distilled, Antonov, Anejo Gold, Primera Light, Vino Kulafu, it became the most diverse subsidiary for products through San Miguel Corporation.

The event had a theatrical performance all throughout the night explaining the reason why the company has remained productive, through innovation and continue to become an integral part of Filipino celebrations for almost 2 centuries. The event was also graced by Ginebra San Miguel executives, celebrity endorsers like Boss Toyo, Mikee Quintos from Sparkle, and Attorney Oliver Moeller. Later in the evening, Nik Makino went up on stage and performed for everybody to celebrate #WorldGinDay. He's also a part of the endorsers tapped for this year, and he's mighty proud how his music and the countless Filipinos that made it viral on TikTok. He said he owes much of his success to the people who believed in him, and gives advice to only do it in legal age + and moderately.

Here's a glimpse of the event, please enjoy!
