theres been a colonization by strange objects all over the college building- again.. this time it’s the first year work.. here are a few images of the many weird interventions around the building.. including- some floating boxes, false columns that sway with the wind, wind chimes, tree roots that try to trip you, steps leading to nowhere, an inverted cone of light and many others..
subodh came for the jury along with shilpa gupta.. it was good to see him in college again- i really miss his madness and his ability to turn a carefully made model up side down and insist that it is better that way. i still remember kausha's bubbles all over the nashik ghats courtesy mr dhairyavan.
why have we all become so sane so suddenly? i guess it also comes from being stuck teaching senior years.. the dreaded 'university semesters'.
speaking of which- i go as external juror on monday and tuesday to other colleges for the first time.. lets see how that turns out.
the air conditioner got to the office this week along with the new chairs.. the ac promptly blew the wires out as soon as it was connected leaving us with no eletricity. repairs have to be done tomorrow. aaji insists on buying us a fridge and i cant decided what size.
meanwhile- i went and saw 'hazaaron khwaishen aisi' again with aaji, ranjit, mom, dad and madhavi mami yesterday.. still liked the film seeing it through the eyes of those whom it presented. mom loved the second half while dad had problems with its disjointed nature- he could not decide what the film was 'about'.
what is a portrait 'about'?
