today let us remember...
"The modern hero-deed must be that of questing to bring to light again the lost Atlantis of the co-ordinated soul. Obviously, this work cannot be wrought by turning back, or away, from what has been accomplished by the modern revolution. For the problem is that of making it possible for men and women to come to full human maturity through the conditions of contemporary life...
...But the social unit is not a carrier of religious content, but an economic-political organization. Its ideals are not those of the hieratic pantomime, making visible on earth the forms of heaven, but that of the secular state, in hard and unremitting competition for material supremacy and resources. Isolated societies, dream-bounded within a mythologically charged horizon, no longer exist except as areas to be exploited. And within the progressive societies themselves, every last vestige of the ancient human heritage of ritual, morality, and art is in full decay....
It is not society that is to guide and save the creative hero, but precisely the reverse. And so every one of us shares the supreme ordeal - carries the cross of the redeemer - not in the bright moments of his tribe's great victories, but in the silences of his personal despair."
- from "The Hero with a Thousand Faces"

boyle's law
been shooting with danny boyle....
"For a fixed amount of gas kept at a fixed temperature, p and V are inversely proportional (while one increases, the other decreases)."
The mathematical equation for Boyle's law is:
pV=kwhere:
- p isthe pressure of the system.
- V is the volume of the gas.
- k is a constant

mr. spandan banerjee & my day off
i'm shooting 6 days a week, the day off on saturday is really precious and mr. banerjee turned up on an early morning flight from delhi and rang my doorbell at 9 in the morning and luckily it was my day off so we smoked some early in the morning and it was the first time in the last 7 weeks that i actually had a completely relaxed, nicely unwindingly day off and he's looking a bit tired because he wakes up this early only a couple of times in a year.

self portrait, 16nov07
my second arthroscopy, this time on the right knee.
the mri scan report sounded most poetic...
"...body and posterior horn
of medial meniscus shows
a bucket handle tear.
the torn fragment is
in the intercondylar region.
complete tear
of the anterior cruciate ligament
from its femoral attachment
with retraction of its distal fibers...."
