I want everything ..no..i want nothing ..no no ..i want...

Yea,

Thats how my life has been like (Class wise,old indian istyle.)

Class 4 : My uncle thinks that i have a sense of rhythm (yea.i luv my uncle.he made me feel so special) . My dad enrolls me for mrudangam classes.The class is like an hr away from home.I dont want people messing with me on saturdays.I quit after 1 year.

Class 5: My mom enrolls me for music classes ( again someone thought that i cud sing..ehmm.i dint.it sounded horrible when i recorded it and played it back on my tape recorder.nothing like what i heard inside my head).I quit after 3 years.The worst part is that , all the way till my 9th standard, my voice never broke....i dont think that it has broken , even now.... :P

Class 6 : Guitar Classes : haha..comedy.never learnt anything except "Tujhe dekha tho " , in my guitar .. my dad still pokes fun at me for those times.. :)

Class 8 : Interest re-emerges in music.Gets drowned coz ppl thought that i sounded like a girl.

Class 9 -10 : Not much action... A lot of discovery channel

Class 11-12 : Cultural events, group songs , beetles- " cant buy me love " , i am the only male singer  in a group of 4 ( how i wish tat would repeat NOW).My voice must not have broken then.... :|

College : aah..IIT , Kharagpur , spring fest .. rock rock , metal metal..loads of headbanging with buddy Vivek and we end up being rock music fans...and i say goodbye to indian music.Total ignorify my Cultural Arts teacher after 2 years of compulsory classes and there i end up learning nothing....Some music composition on the guitar , inspired by some nice blog poems.......Later on in the 4th year , i realise tat m gonna start working and i just have 1 month to start playing some music...Some night outs on Prep Leaves in the music room with my juniors and hence some memory worthy times....

Now : Nothing to do...Programming - dislike , photography - amateur , drums- amateur ,guitar - amateur,singing -amateur,composition - very amateur

Too many hobbies to count...Or is it too few ?? 

:O

Ever since then.....

I must have started blogging in college.Frankly i dont remember.And for the past 6 years , ever since i started blogging

1 the quality of my blogs has not improved a little bit.

2 I havent learnt anything apart from a lot of copy paste work and some CMS (codeManagementSystem), underscoring_ in un_necessary places,lots of tweeting,a lil bit about cameras,flickr spamming,blogger spamming,developing an inflated ego,bad english,long insensible sentence construction by prolonging an already endless boring list with more boring insensible self recursive stuff like this etc etc...

3 Music hasnt progressed anywhere..My interest still stays.I havent composed a full song after my 3rd year

4. i havent learnt a single extra chord

5. I havent practised guitar for more than 10 hrs flat. 

and.........

6. Added 1 more follower in the form of Priya (This was very accidental for her.not on purpose..I am sure. :)

7. Gained may be 2 Kgs.

8. Lost a lot of hair

9. Cornied my jokes to the heights of corny

and.....

10. Developed a little bit of a wiki addiction

11. Developed jealousy for guys with good looking chicks (they didnt exist in college..i swear)

12. Honed my chick staring skills

13. Maintained my no bullshit with chicks policy (that means, only the usual and no being-extra-nice-with-girls policy)

14. Repelled a lot of girls because of certain policies that i stuck to.

and..

15.I might make a list of more pathetic things that i need to look back upon and say..aaah..i was so awesome...because right now i am a lot more pathetic.. :P

Reliving the Moment

There was hardly any space to move my arm.It is a hard thing for me to do.Stay still.I always have an urge to keep doing something.And when i am doing something , i have the urge to let it go and do something different.This situation in an elevator filled up with 15 odd people was one of those.My eyes wouldn't stay still.I spotted a couple in front of me.The woman held a child in her hand.She must have been 2 months old.A little whimper from her in the congested elevator was forcing her mother to repeatedly shoo and cajole her to sleep.She had brown eyes just like her mother and she had beautiful skin.The lift gradually emptied its way out through each floor and i somehow ,surprisingly, did not or in fact , just could not take my eyes of the little girl.She was beautiful.

Looking back, it  was all part of just an elevator ride.But then , i had experienced was nothing but watching my life rewind a 23 years and 10 months in time with may be a fair skinned angel replaced by a thick skinned moaner .

Manic Social Service

You werent really there
neither was i
nothing was said
nothing was asked
that which was given
was never taken
to have existed
seen shot nor proven

Remember,would you ever
hope shall never fade
for that which i spilt
shall never evade me,
my mind my soul
driven numb
By those piercing words
of silence ,make me feel so dumb

I hope it never fades away,
from your mind,
that it stays in a nook ,
prodding away and you shall look,
stare for a moment,
loosen your hold,
on your self, just let go,
a lil bit, from your real dreams
and look,realize and then scream

I hope not,in agony.

Love.

aching down from head to toe, 

i see , the sweet valley below

promises a great fall 

would i remember the time i hit

sweet ground , not so sweet again

the scent of yours is bloody again

waging wars was never to gain

here i reign ..here i reign here i reign..

Love you cannot see , 

i wonder why you cant feel,

i m wondering if everything is real,

is something else part of this deal.

flying like a bird , m free to go 

to go , and i fly so low 

every bird i see flying above,

flying , flying after love..........

Love is what defines everyone of us here...and sometimes , you need to let go of it to give it back.

We like

Its almost a usual chore to write out a list of things you like and then wait to see if someone else likes it.Be it in the form of photography / blog  / watever...

But i m just wondering if there can be a list of things that we all like..for sure !! 

M giving it my best shot here....

What guys like (ya.they must ! )

1. Porn  (actually who doesnt..hmm..)

2. Girls (yea most of us do)

3. Ogling (all of us do , but many hate to admit it)

4. Hating Pink (yea mooost of us do)

5. Hating feeling miserable and teary eyed infront of people (boys cant cry)

6. Hating the IT industry though it pays you for doing practically nothing

7. Having a college crush

8. Bitching about her in a manly manner ("manly manner" ? ..dont ask me how)

9. Claiming to have doped in college(applies to metal heads only)

10. Facebooking your velapan awway.....

What girls like (not like i know..but , this is a guys BIBLE.)

1. Porn ( i sure hope so)

2. Guys

3.No ogling...its strictly acting like miss indifferentiality.

4.Squint eye -side look technique - ( a smart variant of ogling which largely has evolved in the southern parts of asia , especially in south india , where girls dont have the mandate to stare at guys and might literally feel the stick (no puns) if orders are disobeyed)

5.Nail Polish

6.Combs

7.Mascarra (not really..but i like girls who wear mascarra, and to me they are the only girls who exist for now :P )

8.Playing the unpredictable - girls know that , we guys are kinda desperate...they love bein unpredictable.... this stuff kinda wears of after marriage coz then theres no more GUYS hitting on tehm concept.Theres A guy and showing off some indifferentiality-ness is not gonna shake that man !

9.Dumping atleast one guy in college ( yea, i v seen this..its in their bucketlist..for sure)

10. Wincing at swear words in public.. ( this needless to be said when done ,  is usually a sick part of their beautiful face)

Five Sound Questions to sounDesign

Gianpaolo D'Amico and Sara Lenzi. Photo by Nunzio Talamo.

If you still don’t know Everyday Listening now it’s the right time. Hugo Verweij is the creator of this wonderful blog dealing with art, inspiration and creativity in the field of music and sound.

Some months ago Hugo had this nice idea of creating Five Sound Questions, a series of small interviews to discover the most intimate side of professionals and artists who work with Sound in many ways. The list of people who joined Hugo’s initiative is very interesting: Zimoun, Stephen Gallagher, Anna Friz, Miriam Lohan, Stephen Cornford, Olle Cornéer and Martin Lübcke, Verónica Mota, Yuri Suzuki, Alyce Santoro and Jack Pavlik.

If you’re curious, these are the questions:

1. What sound from your childhood made the most impression on you?
2. How do you listen to the world around you?
3. Which place in the world do you favor for its sound?
4. How could we make sound improve our lives?
5. What sound would you like to wake up to?

Now the time has come. Hugo sent us his invitation to partecipate, then I and Sara put our head on the floor with our usual headphones and asked our friend Nunzio Talamo to shoot some photo. We had a lot of fun and then we got inspired for the sound answers too: this is our personal contribution to the 5 questions series.

Hi Hugo, thank you very much.
