Concept
Note:
Mimesis, as
theorized by diverse thinkers from Plato to Erich Auerbach to Homi Bhabha, can simply be used here in the sense of all
imitative and performative arts or works and genres of literature ranging from
poetry, fiction, drama, folklore, dance, music, painting, sculpture, theatre,
and film to television.
The consubstantial hypostases of “media, market &
mimesis” make a trending trinity of the present juncture where the copy earns
more than the original, and where
‘selfies’ are the paramount promotional pranks for the self. These three
riveting realties in question inter-play and inter-penetrate one another in
sublte and obvious ways. The ‘terrestrial’ market brings back the
‘non-terrestrial’ media and mimesis to their homes. The forces of market and
media construct our everyday reality and determine its representation. With the
dramatic change in the landscape of media, with the emergence of social media
and blogs, with the fall of walls between media and mimetic texts, renderings
or performances, with the erosion of genre specific domains, the act of
resembling, the act of expression, and the presentation of the self, narration,
narrative, narratology performance, portrayal and picturization have completely
transformed. ‘Writing the Unreadable’ & ‘Speaking the Unlistenable’
phenomena in media and mimesis,
‘Tongue & Teeth’ relationship or the ‘Is’ & ‘Is Not’ substitution
between media and market, media and mimesis
or market and mimesis need to be
understood, explored or investigated to make sense of the world we inhabit and
our life in it.
Subthemes
other than the listed can also be included and a separate panel can be arranged

Jaipur, the capital
city of Rajasthan, was founded on 18 November 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh
II, the ruler of Amber, after whom the city has been named. Jaipur is known as
the Pink City of India because of the color used exclusively in the walled
city. The city was built on the principles of Shilpa Shastra, the science of
Indian Architecture. The city was divided into nine blocks. Two of which
contained the state buildings and palaces, while the remaining seven were
allotted to the public. Huge fortification walls were built, along with seven
strong gates. The directions of each street and market are east to West and
North to South. The Eastern gate is called Suraj (Sun) Pol, while the Western
gate is called Chand (Moon) Pol. There are three gates facing East, West, and a
Northern gate (known as Zorawar Singh gate) which faces toward the ancestral
capital of Amber. Jaipur is rich in history and culture. Here the past comes
alive in magnificent forts and palaces. The bustling bazaars of Jaipur, famous
for jewellery, fabric and shoes, possess a timeless quality and are surely a
treasure-trove for the shoppers. This fascinating city with its romantic charm
takes you to an epoch of royalty and tradition.
Jaipur has a hot
semi-arid steppe climate. Temperature in the month of January varies from 8°C
(46°F) to 23°C (73°F).
