The cameras in the mobile telephones have brought out the photographers in all of us. This is the subject of today's images and they are from Guwahati (Assam, India), Bologna (Italy) and Gaza (Palestine).

मोबाइल में लगे कैमरों ने सबको फोटोग्राफ़र बना दिया है. आज की तस्वीरों का यही विषय है और यह तस्वीरें हैं गुवाहाटी (असम, भारत), बोलोनिया (इटली) तथा गाज़ा (फिलिस्तीन) से.

Le macchine fotografiche nei telefono cellulari hanno fatto emergere i fotografi in tutti noi. E' questo il soggetto delle immagini di oggi e le foto sono da Guwahati (Assam, India), Bologna (Italia) e Gaza (Palestina).

Milan, Italy: At the Turkish pavilion in the World Expo 2015, they have colourful LED flowers with sensors in them. When you pass close to them or pass your hand in the air above them, they light up. They were lovely and reminded me of certain scenes from the film "Avatar".

मिलान, इटलीः विश्व एक्स्पो 2015 में तुर्की पेविलियन में रंगीन लेड बत्तियों के फ़ूलों में सैन्सर लगे थे. आप पास से गुज़रते या उनके ऊपर हवा में हाथ  ले कर जाते तो धीरे धीरे वह बत्तियाँ जल जातीं. बहुत सुन्दर थीं और उन्हें देख कर अमरीकी फ़िल्म "अवतार" के कुछ दृष्य याद आ रहे थे.

Milano, Italia: Al padiglione della Turchia, hanno i fiori LED di diversi colori con dei sensori. Quando li passi vicino o passi la mano in aria sopra di loro, si accendono. Erano belli e mi ricordavano alcune scene del film "Avatar".

Hanging gardners - Giardinieri pensili - लटकते माली

Milan, Italy: I loved the Brazilian pavilion at the World Expo 2015. It made me think of the opposite concept of "Hanging gardens" by making people hang on a rope-net over a tropical garden. See-through walls, pieces of open sky above you, a Brazilian forest below, the sounds of tropical birds chirping all around you, while you try to maintain your balance on that rope-net! If you were feeling sleepy, it wakes you up. Through this pavilion, on one hand Brazil reminds you about its rich nature, on the other hand, it shows-off their modern designs and advanced technology.

मिलान, इटलीः विश्व एक्स्पो 2015 की प्रदर्शनी में ब्राज़ील की पेवेलियन मुझे बहुत अच्छी लगी. इसमें "हैन्गिँग गार्डन" का अर्थ समझ में आया जब पाया कि बाग तो नीचे स्थिर था, बाग में घूमने वाले ऊपर रस्सियों के जाल पर लटक रहे थे. पारदर्शी सी दीवारें, ऊपर खुले आसमान के टुकड़े, नीचे ब्राज़ीली जँगल, हवा में जँगली पक्षियों की चहचहाहट और रस्सियों पर संतुलन बना कर चलने में केन्द्रित आप!  अगर नींद आ रही हो तो तुरंत खुल जायेगी. इस तरह से एक ओर ब्राज़ील अपनी प्राकृतिक सम्पदा की ओर ध्यान खींचता है, दूसरी ओर अपनी आधुनिक डिज़ाईन तथा तकनीकी को प्रदर्शित करता है.

Milano, Italia: Mi è piaciuto molto il padiglione brasiliano all'Expo 2015. Mi ha fatto pensare al concetto contrario di "Giardini Pensili" quando mi sono trovato su una rete appesa sopra una foresta tropicale. Le pareti quasi trasparenti, sopra i pezzi del cielo aperto, sotto la foresta brasiliana, intorno i suoni degli uccellini tropicali in aria mentre sei tutto concentrato sul non perdere l'equilibrio sulla rete! Se avevi sonno, ti sveglierai subito. Così da una parte il Brasile ti ricorda della sua ricchezza naturale e dall'altra sottolinea le sue capacità di disegno moderno e la tecnologia avanzata.

Blue bird - Uccellino azzurro - नीला पक्षी

Milan, Italy: In World Expo 2015, Czech country pavilion has the bird-fountain by artist Lukas Rittstein. Its front part is a blue bird, while behind it looks like an airplane with water coming out from holes in its wings and falling down in a swimming pool. This opera wishes to attract attention towards the co-existence of nature and technology and its related risks.

मिलान, इटलीः विश्व एक्स्पो 2015 की प्रदर्शनी में चेक गणतंत्र की पेविलियन के बाहर शिल्पकार लूकास रिटस्टाइन का पक्षी-फुव्वारा है जिसका आगे का हिस्सा नीला पक्षी है, और पीछे का हिस्सा हवाई जहाज़ जैसा, जिसके पँखों में छेदों से पानी की धाराएँ नीचे तरण ताल में गिरती हैं. इस कलाकृति का ध्येय है प्रकृति तथा तकनीकी के समन्वय तथा उनसे जुड़े खतरों की ओर ध्यान खींचना.

Milano, Italia: All'Expo 2015, davanti al padiglione della Repubblica Ceca, c'è l'uccello-fontana, opera del artista Lukas Rittstein. La sua parte anteriore è un uccello azzurro mentre la parte posteriore somiglia ad un aereo, mentre acqua esce dai buchi sulle sue ali e cade nella piscina sotto. Questa opera vuole richiamare attenzione alla coesistenza tra la natura e la tecnologia, e ai rischi collegati.

Traditions & change - Tradizioni e cambiamento - परम्परा व बदलाव

Humnabad, India: When I saw the drum in the temple, I thought that first the "machine" made the drummer redundant, and one day "digital" will make the drum redundant when they will record the drum and play it on their mobiles.

हुम्नाबाद, भारतः मन्दिर में लगे नगाड़े को देखा तो सोचा कि पहले मशीन के नाम पर नगाड़ा बजाने वाला गया, फ़िर एक दिन डिजिटल के नाम पर यह नगाड़ा भी जायेगा, जब नगाड़े की रिकार्डिन्ग करके मोबाइल पर बजा देंगे.

Humnabad, India: Quando ho visto il tamburo nel tempio ho pensato che prima la "macchina" ha reso il percussionista inutile e un giorno il "digitale" renderà questo tamburo inutile quando qualcuno registrerà il suono e lo suonerà sul suo cellulare.

Computer art - क्मप्यूटर कला

3D printed bust of Lady Bellhaven, V&A Museum, London - S. Deepak, 2011

London, UK: Earlier art and artists had a direct relationship but now with new techniques, this relationship is changing. Using 3D printing you can make anything like the bust in today's images. First a graphic company copied an old statue and made its 3D copy. Then well known milliner Stephen Jones made its 3D copy and to that he added a fancy hat. Who in your opinion is the artist of this creation?

लन्दन, ब्रिटेनः पहले कला और उसे बनाने वाले कलाकार में सीधा सम्बन्ध होता था, लेकिन नयी तकनीकों से यह सम्बन्ध बदल रहे हैं. क्मप्यूटर के द्वारा त्रीआयामी छपाई से आप कुछ भी बना सकते हो, जैसे कि आज की तस्वीरों में इसी तरह बनी एक मूर्ति है. पहले एक कला कम्पनी ने एक पुरानी मूर्ति की त्रीआयामी नकल बनायी. फ़िर प्रसिद्ध टोपी बनाने वाले स्टीफेन जोन्स ने उस त्रीआयामी छपाई से दूसरी नकल बनायी पर उसमें अपनी तरफ़ से नयी टोपी पहना दी. तो आप बताईये कि इस मूर्ति का कलाकार किसे माना जाये?

Londra, Inghilterra: Una volta arte e l'artista avevano un rapporto diretto, ma ora con le nuove tecniche questo rapporto sta cambiando. Utilizzando la stampa 3D puoi copiare qualunque cosa, come la statua nelle immagini di oggi. Prima una ditta di grafica ha realizzato la copia di una vecchia statua con la stampa 3D. Poi il famoso modista Stephen Jones ha preso quella copia e con la stampa 3D ne ha fatto un'altra, ma ha aggiunto un cappello esotico alla testa. Secondo voi chi è l'artista di questa statua?

Old - Vecchio - पुरानी

Old typewriter, Goias Velho, Brazil - S. Deepak, 2011

Old cash machine, Goias Velho, Brazil - S. Deepak, 2011

Goias Velho, Brazil: When I look at old things that we used till few decades ago, makes me a little sad. If I could, I would never throw away the old things, I would keep them with care.

गोयास वेल्यो, ब्राज़ीलः पुरानी चीज़ें जिनका उपयोग कुछ दशक पहले तक होता था, उन्हे देख कर मेरा मन थोड़ा उदास हो जाता है. मेरा बस चले तो मैं सब पुरानी चीज़ें सम्भाल के रख लूँ.

Goias Velho, Brasile: Vedere le vecchie cose si usavano fino a qualche decennio fa mi fanno sentire un po' triste. Se posso, non butterei via niente di vecchio, terrei tutto con cura.
