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...

manipulative alphabet

What you think and what you say was never the same. At times it may, but never always. Some things which are quite predominant but hastily stated otherwise. Maybe it has a reason in a situation or for that matter just showing one in high light. What ever be the case there is always a “ manipulative alphabet ” hanging nearby.  So, should we use that “alphabet”? Well friend, anything that is done without hurting, is allowed. Quite diplomatic huh!. Can’t help, actually that’s what “freedom of speech” is. Well talking about “freedom of speech”, recently there was a roar about this and in the process we could see and hear a lot of brouhaha. For a moment, I also thought of pitching in with my so called “expert comments” but later decided that let the topic settle down and marinate. Sorry to sound like a self proclaimed chef but you get the point. “the pointless fight”, “the in for injustice lot”, “the careless and proud to be carefree”, “the deceptive dominance”, “the cham...

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 ...
