Anito - Nature Spirits, Aminist Beliefs of Ancient Filipinos

Anito is used to refer to spirits, deceased ancestors, nature-spirits nymphs and diwatas. Ancient Filipinos kept statues to represent these spirits, ask guidance and magical protection. Trees, rocks, bodies of water, and animals were believed to be animated by an anito. Pre-colonial Filipinos were animistic. They believed that everything has a spirit, from trees and rocks to animals and humans to natural phenomena.

It can also refer to carved humanoid figures, the taotao, made of wood, stone, or ivory, that represent these spirits. Anito is also sometimes known as diwata in certain ethnic groups.

Animist beliefs involve both the observed physical world and the unseen spirit world. What happens in one world, affects the other. In the seen world, nature is believed to be alive. Trees, caves, mountains, rocks and lakes are often viewed as sacred places where engkanto, or anitos dwell. Animals may also be embodiments of spirits. They believed that everything was connected and that you could not take away without giving back. They created a sustainable life in their surroundings.

Pag-anito refers to a séance, often accompanied by other rituals or celebrations, in which a shaman acts as a medium to communicate directly with the spirits. The act of worship or a religious sacrifice to a spirit is also sometimes simply referred to as anito. In most Filipino ethnic groups, the shaman was almost always a woman. The few men who achieved shaman status usually dressed as women and lived as women (even if married to men).

The major Pag Anito rituals are centred around seances. Because of their special relationship with their fellow spirits, the shaman acts as a medium for other anitos, allowing the spirits to temporarily possess a body. This possession occurs after the shaman has entered a trance-like state. This allows the spirituality to be communicated verbally with the participants, as well as physically enacting events in the spiritual world. At the moment of occupation, shamans display changes in behaviour and voice. They sometimes have fits and become violent to the point of needing to be restrained. The ritual ends when the spirit leaves and the shaman wakes up.

アニト〜自然の精霊たち、古代フィリピン人のアミニズムの信仰

アニトは、精霊、亡くなった先祖、自然の精霊であるニンフ、ディワタなどを指す言葉として使われる。古代フィリピン人は、これらの精霊を象徴する像を置き、導きと魔法の保護を求めた。木、岩、水、動物などは、アニトによって動かされると信じられていた。植民地時代以前のフィリピン人は霊的存在への信仰(ｱﾆﾐｽﾞﾑ)であった。木や岩、動物や人間、自然現象など、すべてのものに魂が宿っていると考えていた。

また、これらの精霊を象徴する木、石、象牙などで作られた人型の彫刻「タオタオ」を指すこともある。また、アニトは、特定の民族ではディワタと呼ばれることもある。

アニミズムの信仰には、観察された物理的な世界と目に見えない霊的な世界の両方が関わっている。一方の世界で起こったことは、もう一方の世界にも影響を及ぼす。目に見える世界では、自然は生きていると信じられている。木、洞窟、山、岩、湖は、しばしばエンカント、またはアニトたちが住む神聖な場所とみなされている。動物もまた、精霊の具現化である場合がある。彼らは、すべてがつながっており、お返しをしない限り奪うことはできないと信じていた。彼らは、周囲の環境の中で持続可能な生活を営んでいた。

パグアニトとは、しばしば他の儀式や祝典を伴う降霊会のことで、シャーマンが霊と直接交信するための媒体として機能するものである。また、精霊への崇拝や宗教的な犠牲の行為を単にアニトと呼ぶこともある。大多数のフィリピンの民族グループでは、シャーマンは選ばれた存在であり、ほとんど常に女性であった。シャーマンの地位を獲得した少数の男性は、通常、女性の格好をして、たとえ男性と結婚しても、女性として生活していた。

シャーマンは、仲間の精霊と特別な関係にあるため、他のアニトの媒介者として機能し、精霊が一時的に身体に憑依することを許可する。この憑依は、シャーマンがトランス状態になった後に行われる。そのため、霊的なことを参加者に言葉で伝えることができ、また、霊界の出来事を物理的に再現することができる。憑依の瞬間、シャーマンは行動や声の変化を見せる。彼らは時々発作を起こし、拘束する必要があるほど暴力的になる。儀式は、霊が去り、シャーマンが目を覚ますと終了する。

The Future of Typography

My final project tied together one of my passions, Korean, and something new I had learned in this class, typography.

I knew from the day we watched that short Netflix documentary about typography and the art of design that my final project would somehow relate to this field. Taking what I learned and my own experiences with digital platforms I saw faults within modern typography. So many people have passions and academic focuses beyond just what occurs in the United States. For me, as of right now, my focus relates to media in both the United States and Korea. I always have thought about how the two continue to influence one another and what opportunities lie ahead for collaborations between companies and audiences. However, in order to accomplish this, compatibility between English and Hangul is crucial.

Typography is one of many arts and tools that can be utilized to benefit those who aspire to work in a field that must reach an audience consisting of different languages. My final project introduces the current downfalls of typography and provides what fonts and typefaces are currently available for multilingual users.

While my project does not offer concrete solutions I hope to continue to research this topic and find new ways to apply typography to the ever changing world of intercultural media exchanges.
