RECENT STORIES
The Architect’s Camera
Published on: 23/03/2026 |Contributors: Gowri Subramanya
The word camera comes from the Latin for room. The earliest idea of an image-capturing device did not involve glass or a portable mechanical device you could fit in your pocket. The earliest experiments with reproducing an image involved just a darkened room, a small hole in one wall, and the outside world appearing inverted on the wall opposite. Camera obscura. Dark room. That’s where it all begins.

Published on: 16/03/2026 |Contributors: Preanka Roy & Vikram Nanjappa
Summer had not yet arrived and winter had chosen to stay back just a little longer. A low mist hovered over the calm waters of Kabini, its surface broken only by the gentle ripples of the early light. Beyond the far bank, the dark forest line of Nagarhole National Park stood watching, patiently.
Butterfly Safari in the Western Ghats: a possibility? - Part 2
Published on: 09/03/2026 |Contributors: Preanka Roy & Vikram Nanjappa
