Cultural Diversity for Sustainable Development in Art and Design
Vol. 4 No. 2CDSDAD (2023)Dear Readers and Contributors,
The contributors to this special issue consider how urban, rural, local, and global communications, experimental and innovative media used alongside indigenous knowledge and folkloric craft practices, respect for the disparity of human identity, heritage, tradition, and culture, and the importance of documenting, preserving, and protecting, and enhancing creativity and cultural diversity is essential for our collective future. They presented their research at the Woxsen University and Banaras Hindu University’ international conference ‘Cultural Diversity for Sustainable Development in Art and Design’ in June 2023.
The context of their work is the sophisticated networks across nations that link product ideation, production, consumption, post-consumption management, and policy in highly complex chains. These chains see wealth move upwards, often at the expense of those lower in the chain, those nearer to the making of the products, arguably those with the greatest creative talent and technical skill. In an inverted triangle of development, the advancement of economies is often at the expense of the sustenance of communities, resources, histories, and individual humans.
Radical, and in some cases painful, adjustments to how we live are no longer ‘design decisions’ or ‘sustainable choices’. While we have considered for some time that perhaps we need to slow down, take time to breath, consume less, and cease striving, we have not yet come collectively and universally to understanding that advancement is not always positive. We have not yet concluded that we are operating an obsolete and unsustainable business model, and we have not yet seen holistically that thinking in terms of a smaller Earth is conceivably our only solution.
These papers challenge us to think about why humans first created, so that their ‘things’ were not only functional and utilitarian. Communities from distinct geographic regions across the world developed decorative, expressive, ritualised, secular, and sacred objects from early in human development. Individuals sustained themselves, their communities, their beliefs, and their environments by applying their creative imaginations to their tools, coverings, shelters, surroundings, this growing rapidly in sophistication, purpose and embeddedness as human societies and cultures evolved.
Our ancestors preserved cultural diversity without even thinking of it, both in their material surroundings and civilisations, but also through storytelling that illuminated their spirit world and imaginations. They gave us the myths and legends, superstitions and belief systems, ideologies and moralities that persist into our folk traditions, societal customs, disparate identities, and artisan-based cultures today. This excellent Special Issue resists a homogenised globalist culture that erases the diversity nourishing vital philosophical, intellectual, instinctual, or imaginary concepts that make up the immaterial and intangible aspects of sustainable development that we so need to protect.Sincerely,
Dr. Catherine Harper

Communicating with Communities: Transcending the Borders
Vol. 4 No. 1SE (2023)Dear Readers and Contributors,
After the massive success of ISMER 2022, the Department of Visual Media and Communication, Kochi Campus, and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham announced the second edition of our International Symposium on Media Education Research. The event was organized from 23rd March – 25th March 2023 at Amrita Kochi Campus. This year ISMER focused on "Communicating with Communities, Transcending Borders” to highlight how media can transcend borders and help communicate with the communities. The event is sponsored by Indian Council of Social Science Research, MICA, UNESCO MIL Alliance, Global Media Educational Council, Media and Information Literacy for Asian Network, Pafeme-South Africa, and Ding Learning UK.
Media has played a significant role in shaping our societies and cultures throughout history. From the invention of the printing press in the 15th century to the rise of the internet and social media in the 21st century, media has evolved and transformed how we communicate, share information, and create meaning. With media becoming more pervasive and accessible daily, its influence on our communities has become even more significant. Media can shape public opinion, influence political discourse, and create cultural norms and values. It can also serve as a platform for marginalized voices, allowing them to challenge dominant narratives and share their experiences with a wider audience. In the era of communication technologies rapidly evolving and shaping our social and cultural landscapes, Media Education has started to gain prominence in the modern era. However, with this great power comes great responsibility. As media professionals and educators, we must be aware of the potential impact of media on our communities and work to ensure that it is used in ways that promote social justice, equity, and diversity. This is why events like ISMER 2023 are so important, as they provide a space for critical dialogue and reflection on the role of media in our lives and how we can use it to create positive change. Over the last three days, we saw 70+ presenters and panellists who opened a diverse range of topics related to media education, including media literacy, media, and communication policy, participatory media, community media, digital storytelling, and more for our audiences. We received 75 research papers which are peer reviewed by the expert reviewers for publication in the journal. From thought-provoking insights on the most pressing issues facing media educators today, ISMER wanted to become a stage for our audience to think critically about the role of media in our lives, in which we have gallantly succeeded.
Sincerely,
Dr. S. Dinesh Babu

ShodhKosh: January-June 2020, Volume 1 Issue 1
Vol. 1 No. 1 (2020)Editorial Message/संपादकीय
Many genius/scholars have played their role in the development of human consciousness and we have benefited immensely in their lives, like Einstein, having spent his whole life and discovered some special principles, the principles of which the world has changed. Inspired by Edison's life, many people changed their way of living.
Nelson Mandela and Mahatma Gandhi gave birth to a new culture in the world. Tagore and Milton gave a new definition to the ongoing tradition of poetry. Tyagaraja introduced us to the new melody of music. The tabla was given new dimensions by Zakir Hussain. Socrates, Plato and Aristotle made significant changes in the mental state of the whole world with their ideas. Rajer, Bannister, and Edmund Hillary gave new meaning to human potential. Every human being not only has the ability to uplift himself, but also has the ability to uplift the consciousness of the entire human race. This humble effort of the ShodhKosh is to know our own role and to uplift the world consciousness, through the ShodhKosh, a new thinking is to be made aware among the readers.
Change and development is a natural process and also the need of the hour. They were the circumstances of the time when art and literature were sometimes followers of power, sometimes religion, but as restrictions on expression came out, many types of experiments in art came to the fore. It took place at both technical and conceptual levels. It was also necessary to come out of the urges and clutches.
An effort of the ShodhKosh is also that while welcoming the meaningful aspects of the changes in the field of art, we should think here how to connect it with the common people. He had interest in art, he came to see and experience art. When they are associates with the arts, then with the combined efforts of all, art will be given a proper direction and through which art can be kept rich with its own characteristics.
Our approach to start ShodhKosh has been to make the ideals of the arts and the subtle aspects of the tradition accessible to the general public in simple language. Through ShodhKosh, we invite such research, which will help students to thinkers in understanding the basic elements of art. Will expect creative and ideological support from the entire art world. We hope that this effort of ours will be successful in the interest of the research field.
मानव चेतना के विकास में कई विद्वानों ने अपनी भूमिका निभाई है और हमे इसका बहुत लाभ अपने जीवन में हुआ है, जैसे आइंस्टाइन ने अपना सम्पूर्ण जीवन लगाकर कुछ विशेष सिध्दांतो की खोज की, जिन सिध्दांतो से विश्व की काया पलट होती चली गई। एडिसन के जीवन से प्रेरित होकर कई लोगों ने अपनी जीवन शैली ही परिवर्तित कर डाली।
नेल्सन मंडेला व महात्मा गाँधी ने विश्व में एक नयी संस्कृति को जन्म दिया। काव्य की चली आ रही परंपरा को टैगोर व मिल्टन ने नयी परिभाषा दी। त्यागराज ने संगीत के नए स्वरों से हमें अवगत कराया। तबले को जाकिर हुसैन ने नए आयाम दिए। सुकरात, प्लेटो व अरस्तु ने अपने विचारों से सम्पूर्ण विश्व की मानसिक स्थिति में महत्वपूर्ण बदलाव किये। राजर , बेनिस्टर और एडमंड हिलेरी ने मानव क्षमता को नए अर्थ दिए। हर प्रत्येक इंसान में केवल अपना उत्थान करने की ही क्षमता नहीं होती , बल्कि सम्पूर्ण मानव की चेतना का उत्थान करने की क्षमता भी होती है। शोध कोष का यह विनम्र प्रयास हमारी स्वयं की भूमिका को जानना व विश्व चेतना का उत्थान करने की है, शोध कोष के द्वारा पाठको में एक नयी सोच को जागरूक करना हैं।
परिवर्तन और विकास एक स्वभाविक प्रक्रिया है और समय की जरूरत भी। वे उस समय की परिस्थितियाँ थी, जब कला और साहित्य कभी धर्म तो कभी सत्ता के अनुयायी थे लेकिन अभिव्यक्ति पर बंदिशें हटते ही कला में अनेक प्रकार के प्रयोग सामने आये। यहाँ तकनीकी और वैचारिक दोनों स्तरों पर हुआ। यह आवश्यक भी था कि आग्रहों और जकड़नों से बाहर आए।
शोध कोष का एक प्रयास यह भी है की कला के क्षेत्र में आये हुए बदलावों के सार्थक पहलुओं का स्वागत करते हुए, हमें यह सोचना चाहिए कि किस प्रकार इसे जन-साधारण से जोड़े। उनमे कला के प्रति रूचि उत्पन्न हो, उन्हें कला को देखना व अनुभव करना आये। कलाओं से उनका साहचर्य हो , तभी सभी के सम्मिलित प्रयास से कला को एक समुचित दिशा दी जाएगी और जिससे कला को अपनी विशेषताओं के साथ समृद्ध बनाये रखा जा सकता है।
शोध कोष को प्रारम्भ करने का हमारा दृष्टिकोण यही रहा है की कलाओं की सैद्धान्तिकता और परंपरा के सूक्ष्म पक्षों को सरल भाषा में आम जनता तक पहुँचाना है। शोध कोष के द्वारा हम ऐसे शोध कोष को आमंत्रित करते है , जो कला के मूल तत्वों को समझने में छात्रों से लेकर विचारकों तक को मदद करेंगी। अपेक्षा करेंगे की सम्पूर्ण कला जगत से रचनात्मक और वैचारिक सहयोग प्राप्त हो। हम आशा करते हैं कि हमारा यह प्रयास शोध क्षेत्र में सफल होगा।
Dr. Kumkum Bharadwaj
