Viscantahan, a portmanteau of “Viscan” which refers to people at VSU, and “Kantahan”, a Filipino word for a singing session, is a special project initiated by BS in Development Communication, Educational Communication Technology (ECT) majors, and the VSU media and web teams. The project seeks to give an outlet for VSU students who are budding singers and musicians.

In an interview with Viscantahan host Shahoney Zamora, an ECT major, Barbusa said it has always been his passion to sing and perform. He sometimes earn a little income from singing for his studies.
