Open source, open access and open arms... pretty much sums up the last 2 days here in Delhi as part of the OSDD project which culminated in C2D - Connect to Decode. Have been meeting some amazing people and discussing amazing ideas. My favourite moment was meeting and talking to Dr.Hiraoki Kitano, head of Sony Labs and the creator of AIBO (for all you blinking.. thats that cute robot dog that has natural response and actually mimics a proper pet). A systems biology living legend! pictures coming up soon :)
Also got to interact with the CSIR honchos, SBK, Zakhir Thomas, Vinod Scaria, Anshu Bharadwaj and the IGIB people... all very hospitable people and so motivating. its smiles all around..

the whole day is spent inside historic locations (teen murthi bhavan) .. thankfully as i realize its terribly hot outside! and then late night party out in the grass lawn! :) hey basement? Summer of 69 and Mairi being performed by 8 people from 8 states from allover india with a guy blowing bubbles around us.. how does that sound? :)

well now its Lunch Time! ciao.. :D
