World Comics India

Posted by Saurav Arya on 5:08 AM



Comics tell stories through a combination of both the pictorial and verbal formats. Their popularity comes from the fact that they are a powerful medium of story telling. Comics are often seen as trivial, as "something for children", and, of course, a big part of the mainstream comics sold today are just that. But comics, in a nutshell, are a visual form of storytelling, where texts and effects are added to extend meaning to the visual narrative.
Comics can perhaps be compared with a film that stops at intervals. What we see in the panels (boxes) of the comics is a still image from the story. What is outside the picture and what has happened between the two panels is left to the reader to imagine and fill out. They can be serious, funny, thought provoking entertaining and have an intrinsic energy of their own, they also have the power to stimulate, provoke and urge one to action. So far in India, this medium has been restricted to professional comics artists, who have used the techniques to express themselves in popular mainstream comics that deal with mythology, adventure or basic humour, eg Amar Chitrakatha, Lotpot, and the Indian reprints of Phantom, Tarzan, Superman, Spiderman, Tintin, Asterix etc.

Drugs and creativity

Posted by Saurav Arya on 3:58 PM
Continuous use of Drugs by creative heads like Kurt Cobain,Charlie Parker,Janis Joplin etc fostered popular impression that drug use enhances creativity.Though still it has not been scientifically proved,it is believed that :

Alcoholenhances creativity by reducing inhibitions.
Nicotineconsumption leads to certain cognitive gains in areas such as information processing speed and working memory function
Marijuanaapparently results in increased originality but has a negligible or slightly negative impact on creative achievement.

Enjoyed dawn after a long time.when dawn came , power went off.Taking advantage of the moment, I went out of my room and laid myself on the cot kept in the ground near my room.I focussed my eye on the only star tht was visible in the sky and let cool breeze run over me.Then I slowly closed my eyes and took a deep breathe n folded my palms.I felt like coming back to life and felt as if I am learning to fly.
