Moment!

The evening is very cold today due to the air conditioners inside, but its still hot outside at 7:30 pm, interesting music playing in the right volume to charge up ones evening some new and most unknown, its no running from office here, people don't just work here, the place is really different. Actually its this moment that is making its self good and felt.
Imagine a world when the moments make them self felt to you, they come from back and between your hair talk to your ears in an unknown tone and sometimes remain silent, then it takes us for a short walk and leaves your hand back on this keyboard to type this. Its like the time is making way for a fun, fascination and interesting data transfer is happening in a very new, not actually new but has been unknown for sometime now and now its spreading the emo-happening wave connecting directly with the senses of everyone to make a new place where stars come and shout 'its morning here', and we are still here working our hearts out!!

life

A lady in saree there is sitting so lone but content, her immaculate profile view is just perfect holding a sitar  by her left arm resting on the thigh and is just about to move those fingers on to the stings, I can only think in which time the stroll of strings by the slender fingers stroken off their potential state and sprung into the air cracking onto my ears will take me into. and just then a man froze it onto the wall. The painting was breathtaking each and every detail of it from the border of the pallu to the veins below the skin all of it was so real. This and a lot more that we've see, learned of, and admired are as important in human life as something basic to us as the news paper. 
But a work of art is way beyond, its not just admired for its intensity now but rated for that and hence priced. therefore in this time of ours, art leaves the office going common man and serves the buyer. 
Also art has a bigger role to play now, when things go out of hands and become negligible for the most, is the first and biggest mistake of our time. Art and design don't need wall they need your life and our emotion making it a bigger responsibility to take us into a new world where people just come out of there houses to paint, what a fair would that be all the streets clean and inked. all the minds together to think and all the mankind on the roads to plan the roads to connect the hearts to laugh and eat in different parts.

Imperfection

Its building new cities this time, by this we only mean getting smarter by the old day we see, simple things which gets difficult due to basic infrastructure which is the prime objective of being. God gives us a body wherein the passages, flyovers and the basic structure that holds them together is in place and it does not end here every being is designed so that all the needs and necessities of world are met automatically.

So taking it further we make buildings, houses, entertainment centers and a lot of  things, but don't really care for where is all of this taking us into, a better world or something so as to just earn money out of it or to become great business man. Well business over here is again an ambiguous word when we say 'oh! he's a really successful entrepreneur, but where is his business taking the world of ours.

For this place and us to survive here for a lot of time we'll have to get smarter and better, and think of new environment, human every mortal and immortal friendly business ideas.

I some time not far the ideas will get better with age and the young will think in dimensions thought never before and still add to it so much so that this thought and a world so imperfect could be laughed upon but one thing sure what will we make better then. oh!! never mind the space is just way too big to decide and learn.

I name my work!

Its a new day here, after a complete day of silence the deserted day vanishes with the fast moving steps, the newspapers and milk packets on the doorsteps, the people on roads, bus stops, stations and the gushing traffic comes to life again here in Bombay!! or Mumbai as people call it now but I personally prefer the old classic Bombay which has been its name since its existence and feel this how it should be. I mean who are we to change the name of things, places, events by carefully choosing them. Doing so we'd be only making the new name of a place which changes noting for the people who make it, their lives that's woven around it, the events that shape the place, the occupations depending on the availability of things like food, water and other materials to sustain life at the place and hence we humans create a place, a place ethnically, socially, economically and culturally unique.
The events from the beginning of the time shape the place and people around it and then after democracy, when there's no king and family of rulers a few just to register their names in the history textbooks of school children (who only remember them till the end of the year for the exams) come and change the name of the places. From the imperially colonized Bombay, Calcutta, Madras to their modern names which doesn't carry any aspect of design in name of the people who made them.
The next part of naming goes for the structures, when a man designs, makes or invests his precious time and money in making something, he puts his heart into it, which the whole of humanity is enthralled off and uses them for their simple needs, appreciating them for the marvelous amount of knowledge that has gone into making them. And then people with the highest authority come and decide its name, who may not even have lifted a brick, given a penny or even cleaned its wall which isn't right ethically.
In moral senses the naming should either be classic or associated with the person or event responsible for the structure, like the Eiffel tower and not the Chatrapati Shivaji Terminus I mean Shivaji is probably a very great man and  doesn't need a Victorian Terminus to be associated with, and similarly an English structure needs more respect than just its name.
we in today's world plan new cities, invent towns and paint structures around them and even draw countries but forget our basics to preserve our classics, to the best of their now, will be forever and the new will just add to make it better.

After Diwali

The Diwali has just finished but only that day in terms of numbers has gone the spirits still remain in the Diwali parties, gifts, sweets, lights small, big every colour, on the balconies of  residential skyscrapers the twinkling skies with natural stars and man-made rockets, the lights on the splendid Rashtrapati Bhavan and the small bulb in a kandil of a hut in Bombay, here there every where. crackers that will be bustling the cities towns and villages of of this country and not just here but all throughout the world the spirit is celebrated in different ways.

Sometimes it feels like these festivals actually give a new life to the older you in the same old office, school and college or wherever else, but one thing is for sure, that is to find a good place for yourself, its not just the festivals that should have the power to bring oneself up from the monotony of life, but the monotony itself should be so exiting, agile and fun that every day is blessed by the goodness of life and happiness.

Start

A new start, a new beginning. the world has changed quite a lot from tomorrow and change is inevitable, for something new to come, a new discovery, a new experience, anything.

For now the most important thing of our life the computers, you open the computer in the morning in your office, school, home, college and boom the start button is not there, Microsoft in trying to do something new and be cool as usual in front of the really cool apple computers and hence creates a mosaic of tiles which actually looks more or less like a mobile screen. then the new US president is on waiting, yes the counting is still going on, and the whole world waits for who the 'new one' would be and the most importantly 'what is he going to do?'.
Another new change of today is Nicolas Ghesquière the Creative director of the House of Balenciaga is leaving the house after being at its helm for a long era in fashion and precisely fifteen years. He is said to have rebuilt the entire house of Cristobal Balenciaga from being the place for couture from 50's to 70's into a new house that has a distinct statement of its own. say contemporary, futuristic or just something else but still maintains its grounding for being designed by heart and ruled by emotions. what ever the world says, The man in his forties now is my personal favorite even before I knew about him or the history behind the brand, which is the whole crux of life that is about 'your work being able to speak more than you'.

Its morning and the world has just begun for another day, lets see what what does it unfolds into.
Wish all the luck to every particle that's working tirelessly.
