life lived between breaks
Mass Media looks for breaks in everyday life, therefore it covers life when events become a breaking news, diligently capturing the spectacle of the fight between a Narayana Murthy and Deve Gowda, it then runs the tape of repeated simulation of the captured spectacle for a few days together, then forgets, looking for some other breaks, at times remembering some spectacular breaks in the form of anniversaries. The shocks through the breaking stories are essential, they come up as stock taking situations after years of neglect but the question comes up - Who will connect the life lived between those breaks? Who will track the mercury of the silent indignation of a local as he sees his old city destroyed by rising prices, traffic jams and rowdy nightlife given vent finally as an outburst including the indifference, vulnerability and failure of the software engineer to see those signs? Can fiction be the answer?
