Ramblings: Apple is truly our DNA. Then it was Adam and now Steve.

Thursday, October 6, 2011. Apple is truly our DNA. Then it was Adam and now Steve. The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come. For those of us lucky enough to get to work with him, it's been an insanely great honor. I will miss Steve immensely." — Bill Gates. I got one of the first Macs, and my relationship with computers fundamentally changed. In both of his incarnations at Apple, he was a visionary....The w...

Tuesday, July 1, 2008. I have wanted to go to. Since ever but could never actually get go. Four years ago I had a chance to go with my college/colleagues but my thesis came in between and I had to stay back and work on my paintings. Numerous times I had the opportunity but somehow nothing could materialize. Easily identifiable by their ornately sculptured surface give my nerves a tingling of surrealism. On my insistence we decided to board a bus from. Am I glad I went to. Yes, I think so. Jama Masjid was...

Ramblings: Transience

Thursday, April 9, 2009. Thou art yet region-bound, Transcend the limits of space,. Transcend the narrow climes of the East and the West. . Translation of Iqbal's work. Art is an idiosyncratic prism which translates the unspeakable and the sublime, reflecting the human complicity within nature. Our acts embody nature and art commemorates nature. It helps us in recounting our emotional ideas fabricated from sorrows rooted in decay and joys springing from growth. Sadia Salim a ceramicist. Of March opened i...

What do diamonds and rainbowshave in common? Is there a connection between fall colors and flamingos? Very small additions of an impurity can transform transparent corundum into a gorgeous red ruby. The same mechanism makes emeralds green and produces the color in some glazes and enamels.". Links to this post.

Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Coffee ground and creative mind go hand in hand! I'm uninspired. Completely. I know what I need to write, and how I need to write it, and where I need to go with it. I just don't want to. *Cue temper tantrum here* Except it's not temper. It's just.nothing. No drive. No emotion. No motivation. Just emptiness. Chocolates and coffee are the two things which can put me back into my mainstream thought line instantly! But what a pity we don’t have Starbucks here! Tuesday, July 29, 2008.

Thursday, May 14, 2009. For more than half a century now, we have been waiting patiently observing our cups of sorrow to be filled at last. But everyday we realize that there is much more to come. So we sit back again and wait more, wait till our sorrows are brimming to the edge. We do nothing but wait. Provide them with a society abiding by laws instead of a lawless society? Or thinking that by asserting phrases like “brain drain” would bring them back? Thursday, May 14, 2009. Links to this post. A Ques...

Tuesday, May 5, 2009. Love’s not Time’s fool? Is it possible not to be in love anymore? To remember every little detail, the hollow and planes of a face, the tender touch and the warm breath, and yet not be in love? Is it the daily grind which is making me look away from life? Or is it the weird maturity I have reached which constantly reminds me to wake from my dream which I thought was love. Tuesday, May 05, 2009. Links to this post. Labels: gone with the wind?

Saturday, June 21, 2008. They thought I was a Surrealist but I wasn't. I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality" -Excerpt from her diary. The artist work has been defined as a mania for self-portraits a sort of therapy to survive, an alienation of suffering and physical pain inflicted by external events on her body at such a tender age. And on her canvas things/objects/her body acquires an "overflowing" abstract universality. One of my favorite artist from the 20th century's time. I like to read.
