#tridotvisual #graphicrecording

This post is outcome of #sketchaday challenge. As I was drawing each day and posting it on my Facebook and Instagram account, likes from viewers were stimulus. My confident was building up, I started looking for groups where I could post, get critical appreciation and learn as well. That’s when I stumbled upon IFVP, a community of graphic facilitators and graphic recorder.


When I posted a few of my sketches there, I got appreciation and made a few friends but got a notice from admin that drawings done during graphic recording or facilitation can be put here.

On further pondering I came to understand that graphic recording is live drawing of a talk or a meeting or discussion to interpret same thru visuals or metaphors. In meanwhile I met Chitra Chandrashekhar who is a graphic recorder.

To gather we did 1st gig and then I took upon myself to create opportunities within/outside my organisation to practice this craft.

So far I have done graphic recording during conferences, TEDx events, Offsite meets and enjoyed their power of recall of talks. Made new friends across globe and went all the way to Germany to learn craft from masters.

Enjoy a few of the gigs.

#Sketchaday

It has been more than two years since I took up drawing a bit more seriously. Early 2017 I took up on myself to sketch each day for 100 days. It was easier said than done, you got to have a theme or situation or text which pulls you to towards drawing.

As I get lot of what’s app or Facebook messages/pictures, I started building visuals around them. Slowly a character emerged which has been named “Rohan Baba”.

Here are a few of them for you to ponder. In case you like them or want a hard print of same, these are available as Bookmarks, 4”x6” or A4 size on 300gsm paper.

Freedom

The greatest freedom
man has
is the freedom to know himself.

This freedom
entails evaluation
of self by self

The surest way
to freedom is
to stay face to face
with one's own self

Freedom is simply being
what one is
and nothing more

Freedom is
neither possessing
nor being possessed

Freedom is
being in solitude
when there is no
company of desires and
thoughts eve.

Visit to DSCI

Yesterday I happened to go Delhi State Cancer Insitute to discuss some radiation shielding isssues with Prof. P S Negi and Dr.R K Grover on their upcoming Brachy cum Simulator suite.

Dr. Negi after discussions took me on facility tour and was surprised to find a Government Institute going out of the way to match ambience and aesthetics of any star rated facility in India or abroad with state of art equipments (Three Linacs with IMRT, IGRT, SRS, SRT, SBRT facilities, Physics Lab, Modern Mould Room etc.).It is great boon for general public to get up to date facilities at lowest possible costs.

I could see the corridor swarming with public to avail the facility and wish Dr. Grover and team a great success in this endeavor.




Understand in next phase it is getting PET-CT with cyclotron facility.

(P.S. An updated web site will be of great benefit to public and professionals alike.)
