It really takes a lot of hard work and dedication to create a sculpture. The visible creations that we could see are now only limited to pottery or even the Hindu Goddesses during the yearly affaire or for that matter the last visit to a archaeological site or an ancient temple.

The visual art creation all started many many years back around (24,000–22,000 BC), "Venus of Willendorf", "Lion man of the Hohlenstein Stadel" to name a few from that time. Time moved on and the world got to see many a wonder notedly "Michelangelo's Moses", "Moai from Easter Island", "Nuremberg sculptor Adam Kraft", "Venus de Milo", "Michelangelo, The Statue of David", "Ashoka Pillar, Vaishali, Bihar" and many more.

The fast paced life has also brought some radical changes to life and the latest addition to it is 3D Printing

3D Printing is a process of making a three-dimensional solid object of virtually any shape form a digital model.

With Windows 8.1, Microsoft is going to have native support for 3D printing. Check out the link to get an idea on what it's all about. 

And, there is "Twinkind", checkout the link to see where we are heading for.

So the next time you press a "Ctrl+P", you may end up printing a completely different thing. 

Now, that's what we call a shortcut.

…till then as I always say keep exploring...

equation of equality

It has been increasingly evident with time that the fight for equality is profoundly on. The roar rocks one with its reckless rebuke when either sex embarks on proving a point.  The society at large likes the notion of  " M = W " [ where ' M ' signifies 'man' and ' W ' being 'woman' ] The equation is simple and straight, but somewhere it remains un-understood and this failure to understand fuels for a greater unequal society, where respect trail rebellion. So, let's look back to the equation once again and this time with the intention of changing it a bit. The perception of equality doesn't lie in standing apart and comparing but it's more about standing together and working through life. So keeping this thought in mind the equation could be changed as: " MW = p " [here 'p' is constant and referred as 'partnership'] Everything that we accomplish in life is an individual part played to achie...

So Big Data

… a different perspective. We are fortunate to see the technological change (limiting myself to software) in front of our eyes. It's so wonderful that each change in technology brings with it sophistication and features, and which in turn help the developer community to transform an idea into reality. On the other hand these technologies/framework also has a name, and when you hear it for the first time in your wildest guess you will not understand what it's all about. "Pascal" it sounds like a name, "Cobol", "Foxpro"; well not sure what these can be and out of the many terms, the best of the lot is "C"; it's not even a word. This trend didn't change with today's languages and technologies as well. "Java", "C#", "Cocoa" to name a few. And according to me we also have a contender here too, "Ruby on Rails", it sounds like a story. There can be others, but for the first time ...

tic-Tech-toe

It sounds like an interesting point in the world of technology where innovations almost covering the complete spectrum of life which ever way we see. And it's not only about today, the coming days will be equally interesting and breathtaking. To start with "Apple". This company has been up to an innovation spree, and so just looking at the link will give a fare idea of the patents this company has filed and these patents will be a reality in the days to come in the form of Phone, Tablet, TV, Watch or a complete new product line. Slowly but silently "Samsung" is also coming up with some really cool innovations in the field of flexible displays under the brand name " YOUM "  thus introducing to the world a whole new form-factor with endless possibilities. So, as Google gears up with "KitKat" the next Android OS after "Jelly Beans" and also it's much awaited Google Glass , Motorola with it's latest phone " ...
