Hmm??

Am i versatile ? Or am i clueless ?

Ye Gyaan bhi kabhi Gobbledygook tha

I have been meaning to write for a while now. But translating gobbledygook into englees.. well, it's tough! But do you see me giving up? No. Of course, when you see me give up, you probably won't see me (give up).

Ok, coming to the pointlessness ... I'm just trying to put my thoughts into perspective here.. and i accept that i fall prey to what i'm against too ..but i don't quite understand why people try to explain their art...and why other people are suckers for the explanation. The work will speak for itself (and probably make people speak about it too) if it is good. And if it isn't, the explanations just make it annoying. Why would one want to back up a below average piece of art...or even a truely brilliant piece for that matter... with fancy words? Any kind of visual art has several meanings...probably as many as the number of people who see it. A few words from the artist to lead the audience to his general thoughts are ok..but confining the creation to a particular idea only does gross injustice to it.

The same logic would apply (almost as strictly) when this is viewed the other way round. Making up for bad writing with a picture flicked off the net...or using a picture to add on to an already great work. Why fix a picture in the minds of the readers when they can otherwise draw much more beautiful and more fluid pictures in their minds with those words alone?

When i see or read something it becomes mine - in the sense that i can choose to view it in any form i like... and draw my own conclusions...or just ponder over it aimlessly...that is, in either case, exercise my mind.

If both mediums are used together, they inhibit the viewer's creativity...and one of them, therefore, is redundant.

Redundant creativity - now that's a scary thought!


I am done for the day. Good night !

Times and me

Memories! Amazing how they can just jump up and get into action at a fraction of a moment's notice.

I read a quote and was instantly transported to a time 8 years ago ..(damn! that makes me feel old)...when I thought i knew Life...!! It makes me laugh at how different my views are now! I may or may not laugh at myself when i look back on this time years later ... but if i could meet the old me right now, I'd ruffle my hair and say, "Chill, kid." :)

(Unrelated. Serious. But just for fun)
Life isn't necessarily complicated but it'd still be a lot simpler if we could stick out our thumb, towel in hand, and hitch a ride to outer space. It'll all be good then...except for the Vogon poetry ;)

Cheers!

Sometimes

Sometimes i feel i have very strong feelings about things ... but usually it is just the coffee.

I somehow managed to miss wishing you in the last post.

HAPPY NAVRTRA !! :D

Aey Haaalo !!! :D

Right now, i'm totally in love with this bhajan

Dear People-who-use-swear-words,

Dear People-who-use-swear-words,

How do you do it?
Usually, the worst I can bring myself to say is "Damn", or "Saali Makdi" in Channel V Bai ishtyle.

Who woe is me?

I am not my Identity. I am Myself !


Therefore, woe is not me.

:)



Note to self: think this over.

Tagao

THIS BLOG IS ALIVE !

I had nothing to write about in a long long time. Then, along came a tag ! :D

I was tagged on Flickr and had to post a photo of myself and write 10 things about myself. I've done something like that here before but I'll do it again anyway. Because repeat telecasts can be Good.






1. I am a girl. (i dont think many people on flickr knew that until recently)

2. I love comics! :D

3. I bite my nails. :-/

4. While writing, i think i scratch off things more frequently than an average person. (Now, even my picture has scratches.)

5. I am very particular about the order of tabs in my browser. It's like a recently developed OCD-thing.

6. My latest craze is street photography!

7. I wish i knew some photography enthusiasts so we could make a club-thing and go photographing.

8. I love quotes. ["Reality is for people who are out of touch with comics"]

9. Though blabbering about myself comes naturally to me, writing 10 things is turning out to be difficult!

10. Tenth point at last! I know i can think of something !! I know i can .. wait! ... bah, forget it.

---------------------------------


Ok. The latest goings on are:

# I've made a blog on tumblr for photographs. In case you're interested, you can subscribe to it/add it to your blogroll.

# I had two colourful shiney beetles as pets a while back. Had to let them go coz they metamorphosised (not sure if that's the word. what is?) into bigger green forms with wings.
(i'd seen these green forms earlier but until the metamorphosis happened, i used to think that they're a different species.)

# I talk to Gutur like he's a person and understands human language...even though pokes me with his beak and he flies back to his perch-thing everytime i do that. I also sing songs to him.

# I use lines like "The coffee is feeling happy" inbetween a normal conversation.

Have i turned into a full fledged weirdo?
Go comment. Please.
