The Gita in Pictures

Here’s something that some random portion of my readers might be interested in. And don’t worry. I haven’t turned all religious. I have just always liked the pictures—they’re part of my childhood days… That… and I wanted to try out the gallery feature in WordPress to see what it is all about… The quality here [...]

Suckerpunch (10″ and split flexi with Born Against)

Suckerpunch was one of my favorite bands who I never got to see live because I got into the scene just a little bit too late (or rather, I made friends with people with cars a little too late).

More websites…. I’m on a roll….

Like I said in my last post, I’ve been trying to keep myself busy. This time, it is a website to highlight student life and student work at the Tata-Dhan Academy. What can I say? When the students don’t try to test my skills at detecting plagiarism, I actually enjoy a lot of the work [...]

2657 Productions is going to get a facelift

I’ve been trying to keep myself busy recently. As I mentioned in my earlier post about the DAMN It! website, one of the reasons I did it was to experiment with some layout stuff. This then translated into me exploring WordPress Themes, using the Sandbox theme as my foundation. There is still a bit of [...]

DAMN It!

I was just having some fun at work a couple of weeks ago, trying to put some positive and creative pressure on a co-worker, so I created this fake center to compete with the center she is heading (the Advanced Centre for Enabling Disaster Risk Reduction [at the Tata-Dhan Academy where I work]). The result? [...]

DWAB: Kudli Song

DWAB: Kudil Song I haven’t recorded anything in a long time, so I decided to take my digital camera onto my rooftop hut and record one of the songs I’ve been working on. Knowing how lazy I am, this might be the only version you’ll ever get to hear! If you listen closely, you can [...]

iPower Kills Me….

Seriously! My relationship with this web-host has been seriously a love/hate one. In the past couple of months, it has been more of a hate one, especially with all the problems I had while they were moving my account to their new hosting system. In the process, a lot of my subdomains got totally screwed [...]

“Self portraits” aka “The end of an era”

It’s the end of an era, I guess. My trademark is no more. I’m serious. It’s gone. My built-in cat-toy… my man-leash…—whatever you want to call that strange braided patch of long hair that I have had for what? Fifteen years?—met its fate with a pair of scissors on Sunday, March 23, 2008. Seeing that [...]

Promoting people who don’t need promoting…

… but I’ve been enjoying this too much to not point it out for people who aren’t following what goes on in the Nine Inch Nails world. Reminds me of the kind of stuff that John would probably do…. Oh, and if anyone wants to buy me the $75 version available from Artists in Residence, [...]
