Black = Hope


DIGTAL ARTWORK Titled: Black = Hope

(Click image above to expand)


Life is no pleasant game,

Yet a game all the same!

Come with me, let us

Go forth to tear thus,

The occasional pall of gloom.

Awaits the dawn of consciousness.

Darn the naysayers,

Burn their demoralizing prayers.


The beats of music,

And human company, keep up

The zest for life, the trick

Is to yearn for the very best!

Enjoy every step, wait not

With bated breath,

To reach some illusory goal.

Feel the oneness of each and every soul!


Black equals Hope, since it’s

A matter of raising your eyelids.

The ennui shall vanish, Gain

You shall zest, Zest, ZEST.

IIMB PGSEM SOP Essays.

The IIMB PGSEM application for 2008 had a SOP section which required 5 short essays to be written. Here are the ones I had written: Statement of Purpose How do you see the PGSEM helping you in your goals? (150 words) My taking up the PGSEM course has twin objectives, namely, self-development and learning all aspects of setting up, managing a commercial/social enterprise. Having worked in the software industry for five years, I have closely seen the software development life-cycle. However, there are several aspects of business and the economy that are of interest to me and I find the time ripe to explore these in a formal way, through academics; specifically strategic management of a firm, innovation strategies, and the scope of strategic consulting. Getting ready to usher in acceleration in growth opportunities in my care

DNA newspaper plagiarizes my photographs!

The newspaper DNA (Daily News and Analysis - http://www.dnaindia.com/bangalore ) seems to have involved in not verifying its sources of photographs and having used my photographs (does this amount to plagiarism? I think it does) after it carried some of my pictures in the 'After Hrs' section of its newspaper on 31st January 2009, which I had taken at the IIMB Yamini 2009. It is good that they covered the event but they should have cited/verified the sources of the photographs. In all probability they or their sources just picked up the photos from my blog, with the belief that no one would notice anyways - seems they could not escape as luck would have it, I spotted them in the DNA paper on Saturday. It was early in the morning when as I flipped open the last page of the supplement that I was stunned to see my pics, which I was able to recognize immediately - however there were no credits anywhere in sight! Please check the photos below from the e-paper version on their website
