Dhonuk is an online ecosystem for art lovers, art enthusiasts and artists with an in-built online social network.
It provides an online space for creativity in the arts, and a platform to connect the artist and the artsumer (art consumer - organizational or individual)! Letting artists share, showcase, interact, learn, collaborate. Acting as a repository of fresh, interesting art content and an energetic ecosystem - it can be consumed for free. Customized or premium content is paid for! We facilitate this monetization of the content.

Among the various events being organized by Dhonuk at Unmaad 2011 are:

An art exhibition involving some very creative artists affiliated to Dhonuk including Anand Bedrala (Acrylic, Oil) and Kiran Kumari (Acrylic, Pen, Oil), Usha Nithyananda (Watercolors, Oils) and Murali A (Oils, Acryclic). Select artwork will be on display and available for sale.

Caricature Camp - Caricaturists Raghupathi Sringeri and Satish Sringeri who are known for their cartoons in the dailies and for their caricatures will do caricatures on the spot and also discuss about art and the wit and humour involved in cartoons!

An Art Jam will be where multiple artists will come together to work live on the spot on a series of independent artwork and a joint artwork on a canvas. This will be involving Dhonuk artists in association with Penjciljam - an art training organization.


Talks:

Dhonuk & Developing your Creativity Quotient - Towards a new CMM - Creativity Maturity Module for organizations !!

Shamit Bagchi, founder Dhonuk and a research associate at IIM Bangalore will talk about the journey of having started up Dhonuk. What motivated him to move out of his cushy IT job - the passion, the pull and then the final decision. The talk will also elaborate on what creativity entails, how organizations can utilize the creative potential of their employees better and why it was felt that a Dhonuk like online platform was missing in the Indian Art ecosystem.

Workshop:

Artistic Photography Workshop by Vamsi Krishna - The workshop will mainly focus on artistic landscape photography covering aspects of composition, colours and depth.

There will also be a short talk about composing images in a controlled environment – still life, flowers etc. How to process images using Photoshop to get the colours in case of colour artwork and the shades in case of B&W. (I’d like to know if I could get my laptop to the workshop)

The pre-requisites for attending the workshop would be:
The participant should know the basic features of a prosumer/SLR camera. It is recommended the participant own a prosumer/SLR camera to understand the concept better. I will be getting my equipment also.


A short graphic novel created jointly by a Dhonuk artist and writer as part of the new area of content creation that Dhonuk is pursuing will be on sale at the venue.

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...

Quantum Contrapt - Part 01

First short story in the 'CSlueth files' series.  Note: This is purely a work of fiction! 1. The dead body  Wednesday, Chalmers tekniska hogskola, 6:30 PM  He had just walked out of the classroom in the V building. For the past forty five minutes he had been coding an exciting dynamic systems simulation after having completed a late and rather boring simulation exercises session class. He had to take the road in front of the Chalmers Bibliotek library as he wanted to meet a friend staying nearby. As he walked past the Information Sciences department building there was a gust of cold winter wind that struck his face and he raised the collars of this jacket, sinking in his chin into its warm, furry interiors. It was December and it would get dark really early. It was dark now and hardly anyone else around.   He hummed a tune as he ran up the flight of stairs, the library was at an elevated level from the V building. He found himself humming some r...
