Introducing Arcx, a Podcast About Literary Inspiration
In Arcx, a six episode mini-series, we talk to six South Asian sci-fi, fantasy and speculative fiction writers, and trace their ideas from conception to execution. We’re peeling back the layers to learn about the media that influenced them, the stories that changed the way they see the world, and the stories they have yet to tell.
Introducing The Revival Project: Stories of Reclamation and Rediscovery

Becoming Water: Highs, Lows, Ebbs, and Flows

We will host intimate conversations, poetry readings, bedtime stories, gothic and macabre tales, narrated essays and in time eco-acoustic projects.

The title is a line from the song ‘Ripple’ by the Grateful Dead. The song lyrics embrace paradox, contradiction, and non-duality and we will explore that and more in our Dark ‘n’ Light journey.
