This blog was originally created in 2008. I took it offline in 2017 for nearly 18 months. It is now being redesigned to host new as well as old versions of my previously published articles, paintings and musical compositions. Most of the articles on this website were originally written between 1997 to 2004. I went through a major transformation sometime between 2008 and 2011 during which time my worldview evolved. I started re-exploring Art as a mode of inquiry and self-expression that counterbalances both the rational and the non-rational approaches to the human condition. My personal quest for self-expression has taken me from writing, painting and composing music to finally culminating in filmmaking. The powerful interplay of word, image, and sound opens new possibilities. All old articles here are only for archival purposes. In future I will publish new articles also on this website.
