Get taught everything by an ostensible

Blogging is a tool that can be used in teaching-learning. It adds some techno feature to the entire concept of education. It assigns flexibility to both teacher and learner as well. Online education was already in existence but recently BLOGGING has created a vast impact on online sharing and learning. Web2.0 has helped us a lot by making us capable of creating our own communities and expanding horizons on sharing basis. It has provided a wide-range exchange of information all across the world just through one click. Virtual factors are leading and misleading both but every netizen has to be accurate in using webs and blogs in a creative way, otherwise widely it is observed that netizens are turning up into net-addicts. Net-Zones have created a new zone even for educational purposes. People all over the world are sharing, exchanging, teaching, learning, viewing lots of net-materials everyday. Ultimately, we can say, Blogging has become an essential feature for almost every netizen.

Translation of a Gujarati Poem by Nikhil Joshi

સ્થિતિ

સૂરજ ઉગતો નથી આથમતો.

ઢળેલો ચહેરો મેજ પર હાથ ઢોળાયેલો.

અઢળક સફરજનના ઢગમાં મારા પૂર્વજો દટાયેલા.

યાન અવકાશમાં સફર્યે જતું.

ગ્રહ નક્ષત્રો છેદી. એ હું.

અચાનક મારો વિસ્ફોટ થતા અગણિત જીવાણુ ઊછળશે.

જીવાણુના પડછાયાથી સૂરજ ઢંકાશે તે રાત્રિ.

પૃથ્વીના પડ તોડતા

એક પછી એક. અનેક.

એમ તળ પાતાળ છેક છેદતા

ફરી ત્યાંથી અફાટ એ જ આકાશ ઘૂઘવતું દેખાય એ દિવસ.

આરસ મેજ ચોરસ પાથરી બેઠો હતો

અને મેજ પર હાથ ઢોળાયેલો.

આઘેઆઘેના પથ્થરિયા મેદાનથી

ગબડતું સફરજન આવી

મારા પગ કને થંભી ગયું છે.

Translation of the given poem:

State / Condition/ Hands Spilt on Table

Neither rises nor sets the sun

Pale face

Hands spilt on table

My ancestors buried beneath ample of apples

Shuttle moving in space

Splitting planets and constellation, it’s me

A sudden explosion of mine causes a blast of innumerable minute creatures.

Sun covered by its shadow makes a night

Breaking down the layers of the earth

One after another…and many more…

Piercing abyss of the earth

And over there again seen endless sky that makes a day.

Sitting around my marbled square table

Hands spilt on table.

From far away stony land

An apple moving towards me

Has stopped nearby my foot.

UK Translation Project Poems on River

Recently I finished my work on a recording for a UK based translation project. I recorded 9 tracks for Musical Presentation & Recitation of some English poems and some poems translated into Gujarati. It was a translation project for a UK based group of artists.

This group is basically working for Environment Change Awareness, mainly on 'rivers'. When they visited India in December 2008, they organized a workshop with some participants from Vallabh Vidyanagar at the bank of river Mahi. They wrote poems on river and made some paintings on river. Then few of these works were translated by Falguni Bharteeya and some other people. English poems were published by this group at UK.

Falguni Bharteeya and me worked on selected 9 works for its musical presentation and recitation. In this project, musical presentation, vocals and recitation are done by me.

These days Falguni Bharteeya is in UK for a seminar organized by this UK based group of artists and she would present all these 9 tracks over there.

I have also made a video of one of these 9 tracks which is a translated version of an English poem on flood. After this post I am going to upload this video created by me.

Following is the list of these 9 tracks:
1- The Day the Waters Came (by Ray Hearne)
2- Je Di Umti Aavya Pur (English poem by Ray Hearne and Translated by Falguni Bharteeya)
3- The Ice Is Melting Fast (by Julie Boden)
4- Tvara Thi Pigalto Baraf (English poem by Julie Boden and Translated by Falguni Bharteeya)
5- Sister Mahi (by Brian Lewis and Translated by Kiran Joshi)
6- River Mahi (by Alka Macwan)
7- Castleford on Aire (English poem by Brian Lewis and Translated by Falguni Bharteeya)
8- Opening Prayer (English poem by Siobhan Mac Mahon and Translated by Pranav Dave)
9- A River on the Deathbed (by Adam Tankarvi and Rajendrasinh Jadeja)
