MUSIC & I

 MUSIC & I

Music and I we share a long journey .
    Music is seen as a sound which is produced in a particular way with a set of words or instruments. But isn't music that which can't be defined. Does it not express that which cannot be seen. Does it not speak for you when your unable to?
The world's full of it!!

     Well, for me music is not an materialistic thing that helps in connecting with the soul only. Life just seems to flow flawlessly without any effort when the warm blanket of music drapes itself around me. I see it as a compensation for what I've missed, shutting out all the sorrow and pulling myself together at those times when I'm shattered.
    The best thing is that everything has it's own unique music. From the leaves rustling, the rain bouncing off the ground to the mechanical sound of the fan screeching and the door creaking.
    Music is a whole process (let me warn you not an easy on) from listening ,learning, practicing, and last but not the least actually producing the music in a delicate and enjoyable way. It is always a whole new experience ,enjoyment and amazement.
    Once it becomes a part of you running in your bones , it flows along with you ; unable to separate.
 Just as a painter paints on a canvas a musician paints her pictures on silence.
    It spreads' happiness , joy and completeness to everyone. It comes very handy to walk out of those hard times simply transforming you into a whole different person.
    "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything."                 - Plato
The world unplugged

Art vs AI

With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, many artists and creative professionals are growing concerned. Just as the Industrial Revolution automated manual labor, AI now seems to be taking over intellectual and artistic work. From writing and research to art and learning, it’s quite agonizing to watch AI make even our minds complacent. Sure, AI offers the benefits of speed and efficiency. But if we start accepting vague reproductions of a lifetime’s work, it raises serious concerns about how we express perspectives. The key difference between human-made and AI-generated art lies in emotion . Every word, brushstroke, and musical note carries the weight of personal experience, cultural shifts, and societal narratives. Art isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about storytelling, struggle, and human connection. AI can be a useful tool, but it shouldn’t replace human artistry. It lacks the ability to feel, dream, or rebel —qualities that define great art. Instead of letting AI...

Apathy's Anchor

 A lone tree  claimed  the land,    Lost in its own silence .  It  held fast , though winds did roar,  And birds sang,  unheard .  Fixed in its gaze , The cows moved, the clouds drifted.  For how could a rock ever truly smile?  Or a desert ever truly weep? - Bharathi Senthilkumar

Book Review – Democrazy

I recently read Democrazy during a long train journey from my hometown to Chennai, and it was quite an engaging experience. The book offers a satirical take on democracy, exploring why ordinary citizens often feel they can question the system but find it difficult to bring about meaningful change. While referencing the famous phrase “for the people, by the people”, it examines how the idea sometimes appears complicated in practice, despite being outlined in one of the longest constitutions in the world. The author uses humor and sharp observation to present scenarios that oscillate between amusing and thought-provoking. The narrative describes different forms of challenges faced by citizens—such as bribery, exploitation, and bureaucratic hurdles—through a cast of fictional characters: a head of government, an ambitious family member, a veteran party member, an influential industrialist, a sincere journalist, a socially active citizen (particularly on social media), a strict school prin...
