Jogeshwari Video Project

As part of an investigation into the social life of water in these areas, Pani Sare Dhaga Ma (Water is In All the Clouds) is a collaborative project between youth of two community organizations- Aakansha Sewa Sangh and Agaaz, with CAMP and led by the researcher Nikhil Anand. Working together since march 2008, we have been thinking through questions of "citizenship" and distribution by looking at how residents form relationships with water and its infrastructures: including official water supply, alternative plumbing, ground water, tanker politics, and so on. The group has been meeting every Sunday since March 2008. The group has been shooting on their own, bringing their footage into a collective pool, writing over images in analytical, diarisitic or essay styles. What has emerged are a series of writings, short films and image-vignettes from four different slum areas, each one shot by one group and written over by another, collaboratively authored and edited.

Kiosk of Someone Else's Dreams

An outdoor computer kiosk from where a number of neighbourly connections were managed. These are a combination of recorded video, live audio and live electrical connections, testing possibilities at the juncture of the database, its "locations", and its live interpretation by various publics. .- December 6-9, 2007
