PinoyCentric
PinoyCentric is a web log (blog) that focuses on Filipino arts, culture and sciences. As a digital-medium publication based in Chicago, Illinois, it caters photographs, news, featured events, stories and editorials regarding the status of Filipino visual, film, literary and performance arts to Filipinos in the Philippines and those overseas through the use of the Internet.
History
PinoyCentric, a descendant of the 2000 website Ambibo, was founded by the award-winning Filipino photographer and journalist, Armand Bengua-Frasco, in September 2006. Frasco, a native of Dipolog City, Zamboanga del Norte, is also a correspondent for the Philippine Daily Inquirer newspaper.
