Graffiato

                                       Some people just walk across . . . some trot through the street. The mode may be anything but they drive in and out either way. But the fact has a quirk of fate, bring by those street artists who added a new genre in the history of arts. Graffiato, the Italian word, is the taxonomy that drives you crazy with its eye-catching graphical expressions. It is better known by its derivatives, "graffiti" (plural) and "graffito" (singular). Name and definition may change from languages to writers. In Italian, it is "scratching". From the views of Wikipedia, the meaning of graffiti is framed as the works of art produced by scratching a design into a surface. As per the dictionary published by Oxford University Press Inc., New York, graffiti is the unauthorized writing or drawings on a surface in a public place. To my notion, graffiti is an ephimera of bon vivant, an arena of creative art-forms, and an agency of revolution or protest or may be of social awareness and sometimes it is the devil-half of the artists.

                                       The later panel of words indicates the offensive form of graffiti. The youth groups (gangs) which is engaged heavily in racist activities, administrate this as the herald of criminal activities and as the mark of their territory or terror. It is difficult to locate as it is mostly erased by the local authority. The lack of these kind doesn't necessarily mean that there is actually none. If in your course of investigation, you encounter any of them, then you hardly ever recognize it as 'racist' at the first sight. These are such that the one who knows the relevant "local code" (social, political, temporal and spatial) can onl;y understand them.

                                        Graffiti is banned in almost countries because according to their constitutional rule, defacement and vandalism of public property is considered as a punishable crime. Many graffiti artists choose to remain anonymous in order to avoid facing consequences for displaying their graffiti and to protect their identities and reputation. Most often they are also called as introverted archetypal artists. The most popular anonymous graffiti artists are Banksy and Pixnit. Banksy is dignified as the world's most notorious street artist. He is known for his political, anti-war stencil art mainly in Bristol, England but his work can be seen anywhere from Los Angeles to Palestine. Whereas, Pixnit is contrary to Banksy's anti-government shock. Her work focus on beauty and design aspects of graffiti.

                                          It may astonish you that graffiti is one of the four elements of hip-hop culture and it is not considered as "performance art". Add to that graffiti artists tend to choose anonymity even with legally painted graffiti arts in the commercialization of graffiti. This may be attributed to various reasons or a combination of reasons. More to the wonders of graffiti, I have a data. It indicates that being a form of virtual art, it is not a modern art but it is originated since the period of cave-men. In those times, they carved on walls with a sharp object, although sometimes chalk or coal were used. In modern days, particularly sprays, paints and marker pens have become the most commonly used graffiti materials.

                                           To the readers  I want to recommend an advice that with the support of family, friends, society and most importantly government, graffiti can be commercialized, developed and used in an optimistic way. graffiti has a wide range of scope if handle with care. It can help in creating awareness among rural people on various vital topics of social concerns. When the speedometer's indicator is at the peak of creativity, it will be the key component or paraphernalia. Though it is illusion, still it feels phenomenal when it let you jump from one planet to other, let you walk on a volcano or waterfall, or let you do any other wonders.

Campus Trends

Before stepping in to the college, I've a notion :

" The college is all about the track from class to campus, degree to duty and lab to library. Most of the love stories starts from library and nourish during the classroom studies. Friendship would initiate with a 'HELLO' and nurture with time. "

                              But after stepping in to the college, my notion becomes my dreams and the college seems to be better than my dreams. I found that the college is a place with classes to cool down, degree to be delayed and lab to lolz on. Shaking hands and hugging a stranger colleague is just a welcome note to the world of friendship. Actual warmth of the friendship starts with a coffee at 'Kafe Kanteen' and nurture with the smokes of 'BLACK' and 'GOLD FLAKE' and with the pegs of 'VODKA' and 'WINE'.

                                Library. . ! ! ! What the hell is that. . .no one knows which corner belongs to it. It is the canteen that is crowned as the most crowded place of the college. the attendance of the hostellites may be 50% or less in the classroom; but the maximum possible attendance ascribes to their credit. To be at the rank 1 position, the hostellites are struggling hard against the uprising group of "The Class Bunkers" and the promising group of "Ready-made Couples". The sweetly kissing cold breeze across the canteen during the hot sizzling weather and the luxurious eat-out menu of the canteen are the reason behind it.

                      The mouth-watering menu speaks: " The spicy biryani rules the canteen when it comes to the birthday parties, treats or celebrations. It is the unanimous choice of the students.

   After ruling over a huge hushy-rushy crowd to get pasta, when the students eat they say 'Its worth the wait'.

    If the chutney and sambhar are tasty, the students will not hesitate to binge on any kind of dosa, right from rava to the vanilla ones.

    Dahi bara is the king of all food when it comes to satisfying hunger in a reasonable yet delicious way.

   Momos at the 'MOMOS HUT' of canteen is an all-time favorites. Served with spicy red chilli sauce, both the veg and chicken momos will make your day more beautiful.

    Coffee, iced tea, hot chocolate and pastries are most often smuggled into classrooms. The less daring ones rush to the canteen between breaks. "

                        It is the canteen where the friendship between a lad and a lass can be easily translated into a relationship. Canteen is the jeans that zipped them in the cluster of feelings and zipped out the rest of the world. The oscillations of the pendulum become slow down for them. Their eyes meet such that they neither blink nor look at anything else. Their lips slowly pull up the drink sip by sip through the straws that are dipped in a single bottle. The fingers hug so tightly that it appears to be fixed by fevi-quick. Sometimes they loose it to make playful funny shadows. They try to pinch each other by legs under the table. Sounds are always sprouting out from their eyes that can ba only accessible through the lens of their heart. The Heart pick up acceleration with every peak of the wave of love. Love rules their body and blood so noisely that the siren of their love echo in the campus. With the flow of love, they heal the fear of being separated by a stable bond of trust. The co-ordination of their eyes gets better than that of a guitar and its strings. During classroom studies, their visions cross over such that the eyes download the thoughts and upload the respond as well with the speed of some hundred GB/sec. Its all seems 

"Love has enliven the appearance of their life."

Its all about madness. Isn't it ? Despite all that the college life starts from "Single" to "Complicated" and then "being committed". After that, the mystery continues . . .

                          The newcomers are always thrilled by "Campus Trends". Campus trends has a lot of things to say during the summer of new academic session: " For boys, dressing up in formals is mandatory. mostly they prefer to wear white shirts with black trousers, even light blues are in vogue. As a student, looking trendy yet formal is the best mantra. With the summer sun glowering right on the head, long hair is irritating. So, students go for short hairs with spikes. Laptops are a part of their attire; but adding glamour to it are the trendy lappy bags which comes in bright colours.

         Girls prefer casuals over rigid formals as their summer look. It makes them outrageously beautiful when they go for clothes that are airy, that is, a cotton shirt over a tank top. It is the trendy denims that gives aesthetic touch to their casual college look. Minimalism rules these days' trends. nothing says it better than the star shaped stud which can add some spunk to the look only if they go for a second piercing. Be it sneekers or pumps covered shoes are preferred by girls to save themselves from a hard tan dust and grime the summer. "
