O...the logic for roti kapada makan is indisputable. Of course everything can be traced back to that, but lots of stuff is more complex: religion, for instance. social structures will also be a little morer difficult. It might actually make much more sense to take a slice of life through a city, and use that to talk about basics.<BR/><BR/>We all have photos with us of various cities and parts of india. I suggest we delve into material we already have, and bring along anything we think makes an interesting image to study/interpret/take apart and thus talk about India and design.<BR/><BR/>how about also bringing found objects / artifacts/ textiles? might make the presentation more interesting, so people can "touch and feel".Avinash Rajagopalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15062380203783927064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558794163358565264.post-76635134988409942182008-01-01T23:03:00.000-08:002008-01-01T23:03:00.000-08:00I think the key word here is "immersive".

Once that is done we can decide how it should be presented.<BR/><BR/>Having said that, the day should also be more of an experience. Perhaps something as off-tangent as a walk through old city can create a more "immersive" experience than just a slideshow-type presentation.<BR/><BR/>Thoughts?Rohit Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05456529731986146194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558794163358565264.post-12574161354427884992007-12-31T01:35:00.000-08:002007-12-31T01:35:00.000-08:00people, you have an entire day to present your imm...people, you have an entire day to present your immersive experience.Shilpa Dashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06715180691233464656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-558794163358565264.post-40336856234270261632007-12-30T04:48:00.000-08:002007-12-30T04:48:00.000-08:00hmmm..I agree that in order to introduce the role ...hmmm..I agree that in order to introduce the role of design in India to people the "roti, kapda, makan" approach would be an interesting one with lots of scope.<BR/><BR/>However, we are introducing a country and its culture to fellow designers from the other side of the planet. So I think we first need to establish the context i.e.India and then delve into how one can deal with it i.e.thru the "roti, kapda, makan" route<BR/><BR/>Context ko pehle introduce kaise karein??Ruchita Madhokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618576531802477776noreply@blogger.com
