KRVIA ANNUAL-2008

The annual event on house & housing was partly successful, since it gave chance to each faculty to speak on related issues. However the failure was perhaps on part of defining the limitation or scope of the topic, since KRVIA being design school. The majority of presentation were hinging on idea at policy level which to mind is non controversial. The moment you begin to define the territory of theoretical framework, it becomes controversial or incomprehensible. I thought the presentation by Rupali, Rohan & myself were of later kind. I assume without prejudice that most of them thought three of us were simply bullshiting. I was very convicting about my presentation, yet it may be criticize of being international without contextual. It is not surprise to me & as if i am not aware of that at all. The inspiration can be global as long as actions are local. The generation of fifties by large is exactly opposite. The inspiration is local & action are global. The hallmark of the pseudo pan Indian-ness, vastu, hindi cinema certain outcome of that which are convincing themselves very hard to deterministic change of the world from that viewpoint.
