My essay published in Places Journal today chronicles the disappearing #ponds - or pukurs as they are known locally - in a rapidly urbanising #Bengal #delta. I show how ponds in this region have names and stories, containing the history of neighbourhoods and families, making each pond a living #archive of social and natural #history, and an intimate intermediary of encounter between the human and the #nonhuman world.

All my life, I thought Bongs (of #Bengal) were the most fanatical and hardcore of #football ⚽ fans in #India. But Mallus (of #Kerala) take the cake. IM Vijayan was the last footballing great the state has produced IIRC - ‘great’ being pan India popular.
Here’s some posters/placard put up by fans of the country they supported during WC 2023. Related news: Your support was wonderful!’: Argentina pays tribute to fans in Bangladesh, Kerala, India and Pakistan.

An #introduction.
I'm a backend #node developer in #vancouver, I've been running #vrchat 's backend (badly) since about 2016 (when it was just me). Now it's loads more people!
Most of what I post is not serious or thoughtful. I like my #bengal #cat, I used to make #comics (I'm an extremely mediocre artist) and now perform micro-acts of extremely shitty #gamedev when I get the chance, I like #boardgames and #alcohol and #coffee and #cooking and #restaurants.
5/5
Since then, I've gone on to do #watercolour #art of everything from a #bengal #tiger family to the #longhall #library of #trinitycollege,
as well as capturing some #portraiture of people and their #pets along the way.
I'm looking forward to creating some more - so if anyone wants some #christmas art, I suppose send me #commissions? 🎄 🎁
