Welcome to Cybermohalla
Mohalla in Hindi and Urdu means neighbourhood. Sarai’s Cybermohalla project takes on the meaning of the word mohalla, its sense of alleys and corners, its sense of relatedness and concreteness, as a means for talking about one’s ‘place’ in the city, and in cyberspace. Cybermohalla (May 2001-) is a collaborative project with Ankur: Society for Alternatives in Education.

These require an engagement with the self, an attentiveness in a heightened realm of listening, seeing, touching, smelling, tasting. They potentially can make available to us diverse creative resources which could make thought processes more agile, receptive, and vulnerable. Everyone contributes to the context by bringing in their own minor practices.

Through circuits of three to four practitioners, new assemblages of materials are experimented with and brought into conversation.

To expand the domain of ideas that animate the labs and to re-enter the intellectual fabric of the localities, provisional constellations of images, texts, sounds, objects etc are regularly brought into circulation and conversation. These could be broadsheet, radio, installation, wall writing, books, etc.
