Day 85


Day 85 (8th October)

An eventful day. During the course of the hectic day, a piece of good tidings sneaked in ever so gently that I almost failed to notice. Only late in the day, its import began to sink in.  My proposal to write on Artificial Intelligence in the Chemical Industry has been accepted. I will be writing a monthly feature on this for a leading industry magazine. A lot of interesting research lies ahead of me.

Day 68

Day 68 (25 th October) Mumbai Film Festival (aka MAMI) starts tomorrow and I am excited. We can pre-book tickets for maximum 4 films per day. The pre-booking scheduled to open at 0800 kept getting delayed because of some technical glitch. Finally, I could log in at ~1030 and choose my 4 films – one each from Iran, China, France and Japan. The 3 Asian films have a Rotten Tomatoes score in high 90s. The Japanese film won the Palme d’or at Cannes this year. The French film is by the legendary Jean Luc Godard. I am specially excited by this as it won a special Palme d’or for what the jury described as “a film outside of time and space”. Cinema is not just entertainment for me; I regard it as a serious art form. I have prepared my mind for tomorrow’s films by reading semantic review like this one . I also collected my delegate kit. The catalogue weighs more than a kilo. All set for bingeing on world cinema.

Day 78

Day 78 (15th October) I had a lot on my plate today but returned home to a non-responsive computer. The frustration mounted as I kept attempting to revive it. Technical Support numbers were non-existent. And I had almost reconciled to replacing a crashed harddisk. But just few minutes before the computer has risen like a Phoenix. It is time to take the warnings seriously and do some proactive maintenance.

Day 71

Day 71 (22nd October 2018) Spent the whole day in a train absorbing the sights and smells of railways, observing people and overhearing their conversations, watching the countryside pass by. Among some photos I shot, these two gave me the greatest joy. They have been on my bucket list for a long while.
