Detailed Description

This project began with an inquisition into the phenomenon of the methods and processes used in a medium borrowed from another medium. Why are these methods and ideas borrowed? How were they borrowed? How does it affect the new medium? Do these ideas transform themselves with the material of the new medium? Do they act as brakes, or do they help in flourishing? Do these finally end up as adaptations of well-worn methods that come under imitation or mechanical craftsmanship, or are they taken forward to a new dimension to suit the material of the new medium? The interdependency and how it would move away and gain its own autonomy. This project aims to understand this phenomenon and attempts to answer some of the queries.
