Project Guide:

A graphic novel based on the onset of symptoms of the mental disorder - schizophrenia. Schizophrenia is generally described as a state in which a person suffers from hallucinations (visual and auditory), delusions of grandiose and paranoia. Carl Jung on the other hand believes schizophrenia not to be an illness that needs to be cured but a healing process that should be facilitated. Keeping this in mind and researching further into the schizophrenic experience, its causes, affects etc. and on narrative techniques used in novels, comics, graphic novels, films etc. a graphic novel is under the way.

Prof. Mriganka Madhukaillya

GRAPHIC NOVEL


..................Abstract Narratives: The Blue Bus; En Route the Zig Zag Room, 1 After Noon.Posters: Teach road-sense in school; Each one teach one; Prevent Indian youth from leaving motherland.

A short animated film made on Adobe Flash using rotoscoping. Video for all the scenes were first shot, edited and then traced out on Flash. The animation is based on a mischievous hippie grandfather. For this animation, a lot of research was done on psychedelic drugs, mainly cannabis and LSD. Mixed media was used in the animation - flash animation, video footage, still images and 3D simulations.

Project Guide:

Eating is an act so common that it has become mundane and blissfully ignorant. We have lost the ability to truly question what we eat, and that is troubling because that is what make our physical selves. Can we combat obesity and diabetes through prevention and not cure, just by being conscious of what we put through our body?

Taste is a potent yet ignored sense, but having said that eating is also among the few experiences that communicates through all 5 senses. My project is about studying food cultures and issues as fodder to design Food Experiences to raise awareness by sparking discussions about what is being eaten and consumed.

Project Guide:

The idea of experiencing the space, represented in an alternative context, which explores the irrational possibilities of space consciousness and how it is perceived. This project talks about the merging of different kinds of spaces that exist by forming new aural and visual relationships between them.

It seeks to stimulate discussions on volume of space as a quality of their experience, and the structure of the physical and perceptual world and their relationships.

Relevant to the discourse is an exploration of future scenarios regarding spacelessness, third spaces and liminal space experiences.

DESIGNING SPACE EXPERIENCES

..................Sculpting the space inside the congested NDTV workspace, this scenographic news set was designed with the approach that unites the visual dynamic aesthetics into an auditory image. The design evolved from the environment and developed within the financial and logistic concerns also supports the lighting, sound and venue.

With the groundwork of a comparative study, in relation to various works done by film makers from different parts of the world, and understanding their styles and approach for the same, this short film follows a given theme of elderly based on a realistic approach in creating a semi-fictional plot around a past middle aged inhabitant of a village by the river Brahmaputra. The idea of this project was to show a link between the traditional beliefs of Assamese rural culture and the unnoticed everyday heroic deeds of the people. This short fiction tries to focus on a small incident, portraying a poetic rural landscape, which takes place in North Guwahati.

Hello there. I have done my bachelors in architecture from NITB. Here at DOD, I am predominantly pursuing an education in visual communication. I am interested in exploring the juxtaposition of art & design; of spaces,experiences and visuals. I enjoy design research and believe in contextual design solutions.

VC.

Project Guide:

“We tell stories to ourselves; of our journey from birth to death, friends, families, who we are and who we want to be…”

Stories are part of our being. I’m interested in understanding how the experience and interpretation of stories change with the change of narrative devices, be it in form of a book or an exhibition in 3-dimensional space. Topics of interest: Developing narratives for children; story on contemporary society, the idea of self and isolation, today’s communities and its dynamics; Indian mythology.


CHITRAKATHA/ VISUAL NARRATIVES


..................The story: Unnikatha by Mukundan. In a fst paced world of instant gratifications and digital, my attempt was to make the story visually tangible, earthy, and natural. Thus I decided on the medium of collage, using different textures and patterns and bright colours.

In a class assignment, we were asked to design professional identities for ourselves. As I sat to ponder over how to best describe who I am, what I stand for, I asked myself what best depicts who we are? I realised it is perhaps our expressions. It’s what we say, how we say it, our manners. Moreover, it is what we write in the back of our notebooks and diaries, what we scribble, the seemingly unimportant inconsequential everyday doodles. Hence I took my class notebook and scanned all the doodles and sketches and derived a visual identity out of them.

..................Exploring the movement and expression of different chess pieces through form studies. The first picture depicting the movements and the other expressions.

Designing of Interactive product/environment for enhancing the experience of storytelling through digital media. The Project was given the theme as “Design for Elderly”

Motivation for the Project:The relation between the grandparent and grandchild is considered to be the closest in the family. The communication gap tends to be minimum. The grandparent tends to share experiences and stories with the grandchild. The need of some kind of activity to keep elderly occupied and busy, also they have a tendency to narrate their experiences and stories. So, Storytelling as a medium was identified as the potential design space.

In the developed countries the good communication has minimized difference between urban & rural. A good no. of designing on vehicles have been carried on so far in the industrialized societies. This project has not tried to modify the above vehicle for rural transportation, experience expressed by people has inspired me to prepare this transportation system and title of vehicle is DULA. The project aimed to improve the sustainable access of poor people in rural communities to health, education, employment and trade opportunities. Efficient energy use, which called energy efficiency, is using less energy to provide the same level of energy service.

Project Guide: In a society where 'motherhood' is virtually deified, we pay so little attention. The Indian Government estimates that 301 women die annually for every 100,000 live births, with Assam contributing the highest maternal mortality rate at 480. The social and economic factors like the low status of women in communities, the poor understanding of families on when to seek care, a lack of transport, poor roads, the cost of seeking care, multiple referrals to different health facilities and a delay in life-saving measures in rural areas need to be addressed.Through our project we are trying to design and develop an information system to educate women about prenatal & postnatal issues and care.Http://maternalhealthcare.wordpress.com/

Project Guide: Currently there is no indigenous technology to support Indian defense force as well as civilian populations in India's riverside terrain. More often these gadgets are being imported from abroad at high cost. That's why I am designing an Air cushioned vehicle (Hovercraft) for Indian Army to reduce the casualty for flood or similar kind of disasters. The new thing of this project is I am combining coated porous bag type skirt and enclosed bag skirt into one. This Hovercraft is designing considering ergonomics for the crew member and victim also. This Hovercraft can achieve higher speed to achieve target against wave and wake of water during flash flood.

Project Guide:

To explore new identity for 1 tonner / sub one tonner category of vehicles for rural, semi urban and urban Indian market (passenger / luggage carrier).

Description- Most of the small cities in India and villages the mode of public transport is three wheels running on diesel engine. They are very basic vehicles aimed purely at moving people. Generally they are very cramped seating spaces and overloading usage of the drivers add to the discomfort of the passengers. Thus these offer a very good problem area to be addressed. The usage pattern of these vehicles poses lot of challenges for design.

Project Guide:

To have a zoom in look at mythologies of different religions and study the science technologies and “Design thoughts” stored in them and derive inspiration to make something that would be useful to the present world. India is rich with its mythology and we come across amazing stuff in many of its content, if we start with like Pushpak vimaan, The sudarshan chakra, Abhimanyu listening to the story from his mother's womb, the list is endless we do believe that they all are myths. What if they are not myths? How these people of that time think of such kind of things which we can't imagine of making with all technology available. Can we take their message and take their design thoughts a step further. My attempt is to take a closer look at our cultural & mythological belief and get inspiration from that and if there is some coded message for us.
