Diversity

Artificial Intelligence was playing pranks again, as I was tpreparing a training session on banking fundamentals in the local language. We Indians spell some negotiable instruments as “cheque”, but Autocorrect doesn't know that. Check has multiple meanings in English, but Google Translate and Grammarly do not know it. I use an input tool as a … Continue reading Diversity

Welcome back! PROMPT #414 Thanks to Dan Koe for sharing this insight with me today. The key insight of postmodernism is aperspectivalism, or that no perspective is privileged. All views are situated, partial, and contextual. I generated two images to visualize the term aperspectivalism. Well, if this sounds too confusing, it probably is. The idea is not … Continue reading Reena’s Xploration Challenge #414

School Reunion

I have sensed the discomfort some people feel in alumni reunions. Not everybody has grown at the same pace. Outwardly, conversations centre around hilarious memories and how people have changed over the years. Inwardly, they size each other up to gauge their relative success or failure. A classmate of mine did not do well academically … Continue reading School Reunion

Pantone Mastery

Pantone's introduction of the Matching System (PMS) in the 1960s transformed industries like graphic design, fashion, and printing. It provided a reliable way to reproduce colors across different materials and locations. This ensured consistency and reduced ambiguity. Consistency is Pantone’s most outstanding achievement. For global brands, color is identity: Coca-Cola’s red or Tiffany’s blue must … Continue reading Pantone Mastery

Play-Pen

The playpen looks sturdy enough, but Shih-Tzus treat it like a puzzle box. Tiny paws wiggle, noses nudge, and before you know it, the pups have squeezed through the bars like furry Houdinis. The grown-ups don’t bother with finesse—they simply leap out with the confidence of Olympic high-jumpers. Owners stand baffled, holding treats in one … Continue reading Play-Pen
