Your work always excites me soo much Rupali. Architectural Fiction is an amazing idea to connect to a large audience in a very simple grounded way. It reminds me of Archigram comics, and although Archigram projected future in the future, Architectural Fiction projects the future of the past...I thought it was a wonderful idea! Have you thought of formalizing this idea of your (if i may say)comic?
I have been assisting history classes and I feel these can be great ways to talk of history :)
Would love to see more ideas...

Hi Anuj, nice to hear from you. 'Future of the past' is a lovely idea. It opens up multiple alternative imaginations for the present. I guess it also guards against making future projections devoid of historicity.

You are coming for the fellowship presentations this Saturday right? See you there
