Research, Intellectual Interests and Contributions (Code-Decode)
Investigating the parallels between molecular, biological processes and macro social systems.
Experienced media culture as a tool for social designing, engineering and human robotics, like some living lab. By making changes in this media culture, it can be used and abused for good or bad.
Surveillance agencies, big companies, corporations and governments are using and abusing this for power struggles and to take over resources, mostly from weaker sections of society. The same can be used to design better systems and create better conditions for humans by doing changes in media culture ingredients.
My interests are how these systems mirror processes, systems or ecosystems. How they amplify, manipulate or mutate something for good or bad like growth, regeneration, prosperity, education, information or vice versa.
Hobbies and Creative Interests
What happens, when research itself involves and mingles with hobbies and creativity and vice versa? Interesting interdisciplinary fusion? Better way to communicate science?
Reflection, poetry, satire writing in Hindi, English and Haryanvi
