Book Review-- Love and longing in Bombay
#day15 of #WriteADayAPage #challenge by @blogchatter. #wordcount500.
āThe incredible length of Bombay sped by, those endless sprawls of buildings, huts and shacks, children squatting and shitting by the tracks, refuse, the crowded grey roads twisting and winding between, all of it blurred but fearsome in its strength, in its very life that grew it unstoppably.ā Vikram Chandra Love and Longing In Bombay Collection of short stories by Vikram Chandra, a littleā¦

Journalist Barkha Dutt Addressed Press Conference In Hyderabad
Book 5 of 3018: Sacred Games by Vikram Chandra ā āNothing else about the great Ganesh Gaitonde? What he was like?ā āGreat?ā She [Zoya Mirza] shrugged. āHe was a short man trying to act like some big hero,ā she said. So are we all, Sartaj thought, and may Vaheguru deliver us from the judgements of our girlfriends. ā ā ā āYou know,ā she [Zoya Mirza] said into my ear, āI dream sometimes of winning an Oscar. Of standing up there. But best of all, may be. Iāll get to meet Arnold [Schwarzenegger].ā Arnold. She said the bastardās name as if she already knew him, as if she had shared pani-puri with him at Chowpatty. ā ā āI would stay right here, close to the field of battle, in if, and I would stop Guru-ji. He was confident that I couldnāt stop him -āYou canāt stop itā - but I was Ganesh Gaitonde. He could see forwards and backwards in time, but I had escaped fate many times. I had beaten what was written, I had changed it. I had survived. Now I would survive again.ā #bookchallenge2018 #5down #bookstagram #thattookaboutamonth #VikramChandra #SacredGames #Netflix #itsnothinglikethebook https://www.instagram.com/p/BoWUIE6l_HO9jiMcuX1VCmZ4TE2fESm3jN_hMc0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1koga9o9fkgmb
I thought I wrote well thought out responses to some others discussing an article called āHello World!ā by Vikram Chandra (https://medium.com/backchannel/hello-world-cf8dd6fcb7f7). The article discusses how coding language has similar properties to writing. Here are my responses:Ā
Ā So I think what Chandra means by beauty in coding has to do with having a lot of experience programming websites and computer programs. His passion to recognize the beauty comes from his involvement with the process and thinking how to make end result flow and produce an effective/useful tool. When I was a child I couldnāt see the beauty in writing because at that time writing didnāt make sense to me. But through the years I picked up hints and cues to the things that made writing beautiful to me. Similarly, I think the familiarity and contact with coding can allow us to recognize a kind of beauty within it.
This may be a bit far fetched but I think that at times when I teach swim lessons I am creating art in the way that I explain/express what a student needs to do in order to perform a stroke effectively. When I am able to reveal to a child how to manipulate the form of their body to swim a certain way there is an element of the art of rhetoric. I can see the exactly when it clicks in their mind that they can do it. I am in essence persuading them to perform an action how I believe it should be performed (cuz rarely to I show them physically). So I think articles like this are good to make us think about how we perceive subjects like art or beauty, and look for elements in things we donāt usually consider them to be in.
I think what you a both talking about boils down to experience (like I have said elsewhere). In Malcolm Gladwellās book āBlink,ā he explores why people have automatic reactions to things such as, an art expert just knowing that a sculpture is fake but not knowing why she feels that way, or a seasoned police officer noticing a perpetrator giving up their fire arm in slow motion even though it happens in a second or two. They have studied and analysed their craft to a point that they can see the eccentricities of objects and situations so clearly that even they canāt explain why something is beautiful or out of place. To them it just is. It becomes instinct.
But I think the coding beauty he is talking about is in the āstyleā Debra mentions but also in the final result.
