When some freak conversations, numerous mud-slinging at the syllabus-creators,and a sudden strong urge to get down to real work surface,things like 'Point'happen. Everyday, we complain and crib about not feeling inspired to design, andwhy, even live happily! For once, we stopped our whiny banter and decided toDO something about it than wait and watch.Point, happened.We are not yet clear what exactly we are all about. We have begun as anarchitecture magazine, where interested students can contribute articles andopinions on various issues relating to the field. We have a snoop on our roll calls,so mind you- no copy pasting from the wikis and the like! So like we said, wepublish your original meritorious thoughts, that we feel, should be given a littleloudspeaker to prove its power.We are ourselves a fledgling-ezinetter(ezine blended mid-way with a newsletter).So we pay not! We believe someday, when we will make it big as a source ofinspiration to many students, you would be ranked as the initial few contributors. Then, this shall really mean something!For now, we ask you for your time- to sit and read through this ezinetter that weso painstakingly compiled and designed for you for free; and to bite those pencil-ends and scribble on some of those brainwaves your grey cells transmitted.Write, type, hand-it-in-person: whatever it is, take this 'Point' as your own andcontribute.Well,somewhere we needed to begin this and now that we've run you through thebasics, somewhere we have to end. So be it, at this 'point'.Point was born out of confusion and anxiety, but the final outcome has givenus a better outlook and perspective on things other than architecture. Thevoices heard would be that of students, we would once in a while have'actual' architects providing us with their learnings(hopefully). So keep themcoming, that's when we'll be able to sustain something like this.We hope that, (in atleast some small way) we inspire you, provide you withtidbits of information, you know of or may not know of, widen your horizon onthings architectural, so that you actually appreciate it, and not think of it as just any other article written by an amateur. So yeah..that's it, I guess.Happy reading!
