Welcome to my new dwelling place Project ISKO!
Finally, the by-products of my creative mind have a haven. My arts will still reside on DeviantArt, Flickr, and YouTube though, but this time everything will be spiced up when immersed into my website.
My blog was made possible by a good friend, Conrad Miguel “Mikko” Gozalo, the geekest geek in the Linux and Open Source world.
Why Project ISKO?
Of course choosing a good name for my blog was a bit difficult. First, it should suffice whatever content I post. Next, it should represent me as the author and the artist.
On a piece of paper, I wrote this site’s aims to elucidate what really I want to convey.
- To blog thru art
- To showcase communities’ culture, especially Pampanga’s
- To see art in every walks of life may it be in politics, academics, and travel
I asked Kuya Winston if he had any idea. He suggested “Artista Ako.” After several considerations, I set a dry run of a revised blog named “Artista.” Afterwards, I asked Aethen if he had something in mind, and he thought of “ArtISKO.” It’s a clipping of “Artisa Ako,” not to mention ISKO means iskolar ng bayan, which I am.
One night, before I went asleep, I stared at the ceiling and thought so deep and bum! Project ISKO was conceptualized.

Project ISKO at JohnCarl.net is proudly hosted at A Small Orange (ASO) on a Medium Plan. Mikko told me how quick their support is. Not only that, unlike other hosting companies, I find ASO’s servers very fast.
