Intro: On Art and Moments of fleeting inspirations‪.‬ Flatline

    • Arts

We created Flatline as an attempt to explore the quiet in a city filled with white-noise.
“Late night, as I lay sleepless
In the summer dark
With window open to invite a breeze,
Softly a firefly flew in.”
We created Flatline as an attempt to perhaps share this strange sense of belonging that we all feel in a moment of inspiration, and to allow that inspiration be fleeting.
“And circled round the room
Twinkling at me from floor or wall
Or ceiling, never long in one place
But lighting up little spaces…
We created Flatline because we continuously needed poetry, to just survive.
A friendly presence, dispelling
The settled gloom of an unhappy day.”
“And after it had gone, I left
The window open, just in case
It should return.”

This episode of flatline is based on poems and notes by Ruskin Bond. It is written by Amrita Sukrity, voiced and artwork by me Divya Tak and Audio production by Charu Tak. Flatline is our attempt to make sense of life through poetry and art; and surrender to a strange silence that they represent.
