I hosted my second Interaction Design Foundation (IxDF) meetup yesterday (26th February) in Bangalore. It was a great experience and we got to meet many people across various professions. It has helped build my network and create long lasting connections. Some of the people I met in my last meetup have become great friends. Ever since the pandemic started, I feel like we all crave in person connections much more and these meetups are a great way to meet new people across professions. I looks forward to attending or hosting many more such meetups! #networking #meetups #design #bangalore

Considered by many as Dostoevsky's magnum opus, 'The Brothers Karamazov' is a beautiful book. Let me tell you what I felt reading it. #classic #literature #blog #psychology https://lnkd.in/gYDNAWKK

I'm really proud of myself for finishing the literary masterpiece, 'The Gulag Archipelago' by Alexandr Solzhenitsyn. The entire series exceeded 2000 pages. Can you imagine how hard it would have been to write such a book, especially in the adverse circumstances of the Soviet Union. Head over to my blog to check out my thoughts on Volume 3 that I just finished reading last week! #bookreview #literature #blog #history https://lnkd.in/gnqz_trd

The Gulag Archipelago is the finest literature I have read to date. I just finished reading volume 2 and have posted about the impact it had on me on my blog. For the uninitiated, The Gulag Archipelago is a 3 volume series written by the Nobel Prize-winning author Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn. He tries to reconstruct Soviet history from the Bolshevik revolution and write about the truth about the Soviet regime. Countless people have read it in the now defunct Soviet Union and in the Western world. It is credited with ending Western intellectual flirtations with communism. The book literally personifies the term 'The pen is mightier than the sword'. #communism #bookreview #nobelprize #sovietunion https://lnkd.in/g8KUx8H

I recently read a book about the history of Australia. It is a concise book that spans from European colonisation to The Covid -19 pandemic and delves into many of the historical issues of the island continent. It was an interesting read and revealed how little I know about its history and culture. If you want to read some of my thoughts, you can check out my blog post below. #australia #bookreview #review https://lnkd.in/dBAAQ73y

I read a fascinating book about our unconscious and how it influences our decisions. It was an extremely interesting book which delved into a topic I didn't know anything about. If you are interested in my condensed thoughts after reading the book, check out my blog post below. #bookreview #psychology #unconscious #nonfiction https://lnkd.in/dF9wpAWv
