Technological Gesture.

Gestures can arguably be called the mother of communication. Even before the first logically assertive sound was generated by the undeveloped Stone Age vocal chords of our evolutionary ancestors, gestures were in place and order to transmit thoughts, opinions and directives. Undoubtedly, man superior ability to communicate is definitely a distinctive quality that may be pointed out as one of the reasons for our superior position in the Animal Kingdom. However over the last century the implications of human gesture have progressively entered and have started dominating the modern technology-based-making-life-easier industry.

The oldest technological application of basic human gesture may be our very own computer mouse. The mouse ushered in the human race from an era where one needed to interact physically with the object that needed to be moved to an era where the aforesaid criteria became more and more redundant. Soon enough we had not only abstract figures on our screen moving to the tune of our gestures but a new belief that nearly all aspects of our life could in theory be controlled only by our simple gesture.
           
The idea of integrating human gestures to everyday life took a giant leap with the introduction of the so called ‘Touch Phones’ and motion sensor based games. However this achievement has been dwarfed the day when a someone by the name Pranav Mistry, an IIT Bombay grad, came up with what he rightly calls ‘Sixth Sense’ technology. All of a sudden the global innovators we left in awe when they were shown how everything starting from buttons on phones and cameras to computer screens and motion sensors could  be integrated into one commercially viable(and technologically beautiful) unit.
Clearly Mr. Mistry maybe considered as the prophet of a new world where we click pictures by just aping the gesture of clicking a pic with our naked fingers, where our palms serve as buttons and public walls serve as screens.
           
            The age of gesture based technology has long been upon us but it is only now that it is on it way to achieving it true potential.

For a better feel of what sixth sense technology actually looks like check out videos on ‘Sixth Sense Technology’ on Youtube.

Let Me Be.

This time the scene was not a classroom but my living room...
This is basically an 'attempt' at translating a beautiful bengali song  'amake amar motun thakte dao' into an english poem...i have tried my best to uphold the essence of the song in this poem...it is advised that you listen to the song first..the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYsfSlEBh5Y.


Let me stay the way I am,
For I have tediously groomed myself the way I wanted.
What I never had,let me never have it,
Because life is meaningless for the one who has it all.

Like broken glass from yester evenings, if you want to fly away,
Then go set sail into the open seas,
For I’ll not put my eyes on binoculars searching for you.

My ship is wrecked and sinking,
Still I am sitting here,writing the story of my life.
I do not want to keep her late night promises anymore,
So I am forever swimming in tumultuous seas, searching a shore.

When love comes down like a damp, silent drizzle,
With drowsy red eyes do not look for me,
For you’ll not find me near you.
Do not light a lamp for me,
For I am alive, counting waves in the sea of people.
Having lost myself at the railway station,
I’ll not be catching the last train back home.

Your dreams are running high and wild in your blood,
But if ever you get time,
Feel my absence in the gaps in between your fingers.

I don’t like keeping records,
But like onions in the fridge,
I was consumed and forgotten during our last meal.
So I’ll never again swim in the sea of life’s dearest luxury.

My ship is wrecked and sinking,
Still I am sitting here,writing the story of my life.
I do not want to keep her late night promises anymore,
So I am forever swimming in tumultuous seas, searching a shore.
