TEDxSri Balaji University Pune

As our daily lives get increasingly mediated by technology, almost everything feels like magic and soon it would be difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion. As paradigms shift to Space , who knows that soon we could confront a new reality that the human species is not the only species that exist . Now is the time to talk in terms of "What If" so that we may entertain all possibilities that await us in the near future.
As tracking devices become more intrusive and “convenient” privacy is illusory too ?And finally , do we and will we have any semblance of control in our lives ? Or that's the biggest illusion of our times ?

Hufreesh Dumasia

intuitive abstract artist

Hufreesh Dumasia Chopra is an intuitive abstract artist. She has been painting ever since she was old enough to hold a brush. To become an artist wasn’t a conscious choice but a natural expression of her being. Growing up in Sri Aurobindo Centre of International education in southern India and then later joining the universal city of Auroville, which is an experiment in Human Unity, her being naturally turned inward instead of outward to find its true expression. And painting was that medium to express the hidden world within.
