My logo is entitled "Agning"
It is the fusion between science and art with
a Filipino flag. The panicle is tipped with a
paintbrush representing excellence in art
while the encasing Erlenmeyer flask
symbolizes science.
The ink bottle with the SCM logo is the
depiction of the fusion of science and art in
the science city of Munoz.
The green background which covers most of
the flask is a depiction of how the city helps
protect the environment by adapting science
and art activities that are both excellent
separately and holistically but without doing
any harm in the environment.
Behind every festivity reflects a bounty
harvest -a celebration.
The logo is an artistic interpretation of a rice
plant that resembles like a dancing human
and it celebrates Science City of Muñoz’s
rich harvest in Arts and Sciences. It depicts
how essential Arts and Sciences to our City.
Being the first Science City in the Philippines,
Muñoz became a center of discoveries,
studies, training and research, pioneer in
breakthrough on the fields of agriculture
and technology. The logo also symbolizes
how Muñozonians gives honor and value
arts and sciences. And now it’s time to show
the world how we built this city by Arts and
Sciences.
Ang logong ito ay binubuo ng mga simbolong kumakatawan sa
sining at agham at sa Lungsod Agham ng Muñoz. Makikita sa
logo ang dalawang uhay na may mga ginintuang palay na tila
sumasayaw upang ipagdiwang ang masaganang ani ng
lungsod. Ang mga uhay ay binuklod sa ugat ng isang brutsa
(brush) na sumasagisag sa mayamang sining ng Lungsod. Ito
rin ay may ginintuang kulay na nangangahulugang mayaman
ang sining at kultura sa Lungsod. Ang pinagsamang sining at
uhay ay tila nakayakap sa isang bagay na sumisimbolo sa
agham. Ito ay nangangahulugan na ang masaganag ani ng
Lungsod ay dahil sa pinagsamang sining at agham na siya rin
namang inaani ng bawat tao sa Lungsod. Makikita rin sa
dakong kaliwa ang imahe ng isang taong umiindayog. Binubuo
ito ng mga kulay na makikita sa ating watawat na siya namang
sumisimbolo sa ating pagiging Pilipino. Ang malikhaing
paggalaw o pagsayaw na ito ay nangangahulugan din sa
mayamang kultura at sining ng Lungsod. Makikita rin sa logo
ang salitang “uhay” na nakasulat sa mga letrang alibata. Ang
alibata, bilang isang sinaunang titik nating mga Pilipino ay
pagpapakahulugan din sa ating mayaman na sining noon pa
man. Ang gitnang bahagi ng uhay na nakasulat sa alibata ay
nakapaloob sa simbolo ng agham na nagangahulugan ng
pagyakap at pag akibat ng agham sa sining at ng kanilang
pagsasama para sa mas masaganang ani ng buhay ng mga
mamamayan ng Lungsod Agham ng Muñoz. Makikita rin sa
kanang bahagi ang huling letra ng uhay na nakasulat sa alibata.
Ito ay kulay pula na sumisimbolo sa pag-ibig na siya ring
dahilan kung bakit tayo nagdiriwang. Makikita rin sa letra ang
imahe ng nota na sumisimbolo sa musika ng ating Lungsod.
Ang musika ay bahagi din ng ating sining at kultura na bagamat
nagbabago sa paglipas ng panahon ay patuloy pa ring
sumasabay sa ating buhay upang gawing mas masaya ang
ating pag ani at pagdiriwang. Makikita rin na kanang bahagi
ang krus na sumisimbolo sa ating Dakilang Lumikha na siyang
dahilan at pinagmulan ng lahat ng bagay na ating inaani,
maging sa sining man, agham o anumang bagay.
Nasa ibabang bahagi naman ang mga salitang “UHAY
FESTIVAL” na binubuo ng iba’t ibang kulay na
nangangahulugan ng masagana at maligayang pagdiriwang.
Description next slide
Ang Lungsod Agham ng Muñoz ay nakilala sa pagkakaron nito ng mayamang agrikultura na pinasidhi pa
gamit ang mga kaalamang mula sa pananaliksik ng mga dalubhasang. Ang mga siyensiya (sciences) mula sa
mga sangay ng gobyerno tulad ng PhilRice, Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources (BFAR), Philippine
Carabao Center (PCC) at iba pa, ay nakatulong din upang maging mas kilala pa ang bayan ng Muñoz.
Idagdag pa natin ang Central Luzon State University na taun-taon at maraming nagtatapos na matatalinong
estudyante. At ngayon, sa paglulunsad ng Kapistahan ng Uhay ay tiyak na makatutulong pa upang mas
makilala ang bayang ito.
Mula sa aking ginawang logo para sa kapistahan ng uhay, makikita rito ang isang magsasaka, si Muñoz, na
may hawak na mikroskopyo sa kanyang kanang kamay at bungkos palay naman sa kanyang kaliwang bisig.
Ang mikroskopya ay sumisimbulo sa Agham at ang bungkos palay naman na may pormang pampinta
(paintbrush) ay sumisimbulo sa Mayabong Ani at Sining. Hindi pa man masyadong nakikilala ang sining sa
bayang ito, inaasahan namang sa pagdiriwang ng kapistahan ng uhay ay unti-unting ma-engganyo ang mga
makasining (artists) na patuloy na lumikha ng mga obrang maipagmamalaki, kalaunan, ng ating bayan.
Alinsinod pa sa layunin ng kapistahan na ipakilala ang sining sa pamamagitan ng kapistahan, makikita sa
likod ng magsasaka ang mga bandiritas na binubuo lamang ng tatlong pangunahing kulay (dilaw, pula at
asul). Mga kulay na maaaring pagmulan ng iba't iba pang matitingkad at magagandang kulay na
kinakailangan ng mga makasining upang makalikha ng obra.
Mapapansing sa halip ng salakot ang suot ng magsasaka, isang uri ng sumbrerong gawa sa yantok ang
nakapatong sa kanyang ulo. Sumisimbulo ito sa marangyang buhay na maaaring maidulot ng turismo,
pagdating ng sandaling sikat na ang Pista ng Uhay sa Pilipinas at maging sa buong mundo.
Makikita rin sa aking nilikhang logo ang labintatlong bitil ng palay, yamang ang kapistahan ng uhay ay
kasabay sa ika-labintatlong anibersaryo ng Muñoz bilang lungsod aghan.
The uhay logo is composed of 3 elements:
(1) the panicles that spells S-C-M, the city's
popular acronym which symbolizes the rice
industry. It can also mean rice Science; rice
and Culture; and rice as a Means of
livelihood.
(2) the triangle which symbolizes the
indispensable roles of the three major stake
holders: the consumers, the producers
(farmers) and government
(3) and the square which can be interpreted
as the four prime elements (earth, wind,
water and fire) symbolizes mother nature
The colors used were also symbolic:
(1)dark blue is the color of truth and
intelligence and thus symbolizes the search
for truth (i.e science, research,
experimentation, etc.)
(2)red is the color of energy, action, passion
and thus symbolizes the arts
Sa simula ito ay binhing itinatanim
upang magkaroon ng buhay, pinaguukulan
ito ng wastong pangangalaga at
pangangasiwa upang magkaroon ng
maganda at masaganang ani. Ang uhay ay
isang pag-asa at humahawak sa butil na
nagiging palay at bigas na pangunahing
pagkain at pinagkakakitaan ng magsasaka at
ng buong mamamayan sa tulong ng malalim
at masusing pagsusuri ng siyensya at pagaaral at pagpapaganda ng mga uri ng binhi
ng palay sa pamamagitan ng mga sangay ng
gobyerno na kaakibat nito sa larangan ng
pag-unlad.
Kasama na rito ang tamang proseso ng
pagtatanim, pag-aani, pag-iimbak at
pagbebenta upang makatulong sa pagunlad
ng bayan at kanayunan. Sa puntong ito
binibigyan ng importansya ang uhay ng
buhay na biyaya ng Maykapal sa sanlibutan,
na kahalintulad din ng iba pang mga
halaman.
Kaya minabutingparangalan at bigyan
ng halaga ang uhay sa pamamagitan ng
UHAY FESTIVAL: Ani ng Sining at Agham, na
sumasailalim sa masaya at mabungang ani
ng pasasalamat.
I used lively, bold colors to capture the 'fun'
and vibrance of a celebration. Symbols like
the helices of an atom and a test tube were
used to represent the science city's
continuous efforts in improving the lives of
Filipinos through Science. The bold colors,
which is like a mash-up of different paints,
and brush strokes/ bristles represent art.

To easily associate the festival logo with Munoz, the designs draw
inspiration from the Science City’s seal
Elements: The panicles/ grains are the central focus of the logos.
It shows the festival’s main subject. The Molecular orbit depicts
the science and the arts. With its unique form, it was creatively
manipulated to show festivity and represent science as well. In
logo 1, it was used as the unifying element to portray the science
city’s basket full of harvest. Logo 2 and 3 gave a simple yet
colorful portrayal of the theme. Each molecular orbit with
different symbolic colors surrounds the panicle of grains. Logo 4,
shows a more subtle molecular orbit with focus on the arts of the
festival.
Colors: A variety of bright
colors were incorporated in the
logo designs. It’s not just to
induce a feeling of celebration
to the viewer’s eye but to
appreciate the resources that
the Science community can be
proud of. Yellow / Gold both
shows the source (sunlight) and
the end product (grains). Blue
and green was also added to
depict the fertile land and
irrigation water.
First off all, it is my first time to hear the term
“uhay”, and I have to ask a friend what it means. So I
guess, a lot off people dont also know the term.
Therefore I decided to spell-out the term “uhay” to
my logo to put the term in the mind of people that
might see it.
The mixture of science and art in one image is
kind of perplexing to me. To integrate art, I have
used colors (shades of green, red, blue and yellow)
and shapes (using lines and curves) to make an
attracting scheme, and I guess the mixture of colors
and shapes is an art in itself. But I also think that art
should not be featured as being visual only. So I also
added the elements of earth, fire, water and air to
represent the daily artistic aspects of lives of every
Muñozeno.
To feature science, I have used these four
ancient elements of science (earth, fire, water and
air). Earth is represented in bricks, fire in fiery
shapes, water in clouds and air in bubbles.
Accordingly this being ancient elements suggests
the foundation of modern science. Like Muñoz, an
old village and a center of modernity in science.
Well I think, the true “ani” of every Muñozeno is
their innovations in science using a primitive
material (the palay).
To make it more festive, I incorporated colorful
“banderitas” --- which I think is one of the more
familiar symbols of fiesta in the country. I have also
used bold colors to make the logo fun and lively so
that it transend the same spirit to everyone.
Afterall, “fun and lively” is what I think this festival
should be described.
The center of the logo is an atom
which represents "Science" which is a
goal of the uhay festival. It represents
the science tourism. The atom is also
surrounded by stalks of rice or "uhay"
which represents the harvest. The
decorative outside circle embodies art
because it is beautiful. The whole logo
represents the "Harvest of Arts and
Science" which is what is celebrated by
the uhay festival.
The center is an atom,
representing science which will be
promoted in this festival. To it's right
side is rice representing the rich
harvest of both science and arts. To the
left side of the atom is a paintbrush,
representing arts, and banderitas,
representing the happiness that will
envelop the celebration that is to
happen in this festival. The banderitas'
colors are based on the color scheme
of Philippines' tourism campaign "It's
more fun in the Philippines" to
promote science tourism. The
decorative outer circle is to represent
the fertile soils that is needed for a rich
harvest.
The center of the logo is an atom,
which stand for Science. If you look
closely, it is composed of rice grains
that overlap in different angles to form
an atom. The different colors in its
sides are the colors of the rice grain
from its young form up to the time
which it can be harvested. The rays of
light surrounding the atom stands for
the science tourism, which is one of
the goals of uhay festival. Under the
atom are two green paintbrushes
representing Arts. The paintbrushes
are curved in a way that it would look
like a leaf of the rice plant. At the end
of the leaves are groups of rice grains
or uhay which represents the Harvest
of Arts and Science. If look at a
distance, the logo would look like a
man cheering or celebrating the Uhay
Festival, the hands are the leaves, the
fingers are the rice grains, the head is
the atom.
The logo captures perfectly the essence of
the Uhay festival. It shows a brown
arm/hand (its color symbolizing the Filipino)
holding a rice plant. The rice plant is full of
grains as it symbolizes a bountiful harvest. At
the end of the arm is a pencil and paintbrush
symbolizing "sining and agham" (arts and
sciences). The hand/arm connects the rice
plant with the pencil and paintbrush as this
symbolizes that the Filipino is able to excel
both in rice production, arts and sciences.
This concrete logo for Uhay Festival depicts the
synergy created by the Science and Technology with
Rice with Rice food sufficiency in Province-as well as
in nation-building.
The irregular shape of Nueva Ecija Map as a rice
granary, evolved into a shape of the big grain in the
center. Now, the Province is equated to rice, being
the seat of premier rice agency, the PhilRice.
The conspicuous rice plant in the logo tell its all-rice
is life. It is not just a food stuff, but also a
commercial, economic, social and political
commodity. The emergence of new younger leaves
refers to the emerging rice technology specifically
the use of hybrid seeds, which promises better yield
than the traditionally self-pollinated inbred.
The number of the grains in the panicle symbolizes
the plurality of PhilRice development efforts and its
many years of existence as leading rice
development organization.
Obviously, the ‘tom symbol’ covering the entire logo
as well as the smaller one at the center, represents
the role of S&T in the total development process, as
its relates to rice R&D. Rice sufficiency can only be
possible with science-based production technology.
The color choice for it reflects patriotism-red, white
and blue, while the star-like atom in the center
symbolizes power and sovereignty of Filipino farmer
and consumers.
