For the last two years, I've looked forward to answering them again. This is my… Continue reading 2006: A look back

If you come tomorrow
If you come today… This is the best song ever and will forever remind me of the summer in Bangalore. Rajkumar was a native of Bangalore, in my neighborhood, Sadashivanagar. He achieved a nearly godlike status. When he died in April, several days of riots broke out in the city–there was still a broken window… Continue reading If you come tomorrow
So. Vox. Hi.

This is the most exhausting presentation… Continue reading Final review at 1:30 — done!

The books on the desk, the thesis draft chapter
In lieu of giving you something to read that I’m working on, I’ll show you what I’m reading… the list now includes Alice in Wonderland, Nietzsche’s Gay Science, Johan Huizinga’s Homo Ludens, Karl Popper’s Open Society and its Enemies, and a whole bunch of books on art and cybernetics from the 60s. These don’t include… Continue reading The books on the desk, the thesis draft chapter
Time and braveness
Use time well. Use time creatively. Don’t trap time. Don’t let time slip away. Don’t be scared. Be brave. This quote from Cedric Price Opera is in the Jude Kelly section on page 87. I’m not sure whether she said it but rather hope Cedric Price instead did. Kind words for me, as I write… Continue reading Time and braveness
