A bit more #Indian#cooking on a slightly cooler weekend day - also to prep ahead for the week, makes for a mighty fine #lunch of simple (basmati) pulao with peas and shahi jeera (black/mountain cumin), chola daal, sauteed cabbage (w blk mustard seeds and curry leaves), lamb with spinach, and grated carrot raita

(Trans) #Egyptian artist Nazek Hamdy (1926-2019) was inspired by #Indian motifs & exhibited throughout the country winning the top prizes at a number of art fairs there. In 1958 she executed a mural at Kala Bhavana (Institute of Fine Arts) in West Bengal. Hamdy taught fine arts and batik drawing at the American University in Cairo, Kuwait University and King Abdul Aziz University in Jeddah. See Nazek Hamdy's The Lotus Girl (1955) that was exhibited at Kala Bhavana in India at the @BarjeelArt

Grounding, centering mostly #Kerala style #Lunch at home today - all partner's cooking. Leftover Kaalan and sauteed vegetables - and then some terrific Red #Fish#Curry (with branzino) Cooked yesterday so the flavors have seeped and 'pickled' especially the sour of the kodampuli (dried garcinia gummi-gata). Had the curry with last bit of some kaachi-moar (cooked/scalded turmeric and spiced yogurt) #Food Cooking #Indian

This is yet another in a series of bizarre economic self-goals by the #Indian government in recent times. Really gives the sinking feeling that we have a bunch of illiterates or crazies frantically twiddling switches and turning dials without understanding the implications of their policy decisions.
Indian musician and vocal coach, Mr. AV Peace, employs a really creative method in his teaching. He draws out these intricate maps to help visualize notes and sounds. They’re quite mesmerizing.
Every time I attend the Father's Day Powow at the old Stewart Indian School in Carson City, Nevada, I always walk over to the graveyard and pay my respects to this amazing lady. Seriously, search: 'Dat So La Lee basket' and admire her work!
Aaah! Sorely missing #Family - my sister today. She was slated to come to the US in 2020 for #Odissi performances and I missed that. Yes, I did catch up with her in India just this past Dec, but not the same. If it's one regret I have it's that I never got to watch much of her work/artistry. In what little I have seen live and in pics, the emoting and grace always get me. A couple of pics recentish (2017 I think) and an old one from her FB #Indian#Dance
Aaaaaah! So my sister did come stay with us in Pittsburgh for a couple of weeks (mostly spent practicing or her zoom classes or work with India over zoom/whatsapp) before heading out to work in Dallas and DC. I knew we wouldn't be able to make her DC show in September but geez now I learn where it is!!
Not #Odissi this time but her choreography of #Kuchipudi #Indian#Classical#Dance
Ah my sis shared these pics of Saturday's show 'Devi Rising' with the #Bharatanayam & #Kuchipudi dancers & teachers in #Dallas that she ran a workshop for and choreographed. [📷 : Jyoti Golconda]
I am also happy to share some information and pictures from last week. We held our annual conference on "#urbanity. History, Concept, Uses" at Ettersburg Castle near Weimar. https://urbrel.hypotheses.org/3319
