ABSTRACT
This study identifies how indigenous peoples represent themselves on the new media specifically internet users who belong to an Aeta ommunity in the Immanuel Bible School in Capas, Tarlac. It tries to examine the factors that could have informed such generation of representations. The generation of identity on the internet is based on how a certain group of Aetas present themselves on Facebook.
