AnupallaviPallavi is undergoing a metamorphosis. No, not my childhood friend Pallavi, but the music group I perform with. Some members have left and so many more new ones have joined that it has practically been reborn. The ideology remains mostly the same though — get together, have fun with music, listeners be damned. Well not quite that harsh.. but the focus still remains on having fun and feeling excited about the music we create rather than getting ‘gigs’ and performing. The new name being tossed around for the group — A-new-pallavi. Now anupallavi is usually the second line of a song which builds upon and enhances the meaning of the pallavi/opening lines. This is kinda what we hope the new group will do.. build upon what Pallavi stands for and add something extra. Nice hm?
Rishi (our self-appointed PR guy) asked everyone to write a lil blurb about themselves so he could put together a bio of all the people involved. Spent about an hour trying to come up with something witty and intellectual to say about myself; something that eulogizes my quirks in that ‘eccentric genius artist’ sort of way. Failed miserably so this is what I turned in instead —
A musician trapped in the body of a geek. This blurb, much like her life, is a perpetual work in progress.

this would have been the first draft of a blurb written by me about you — ‘a mellifluous cloud playing with bits and bytes’

A frivolous attempt to undermine your original quote
“A Software Engineer whose redemption is in music!”
BTW James Gosling choice for his new language was “Lyric” while someone in the marketing thought the excitement at seeing the new language is comparable to an overdose of strong coffee and hence we know it as “Java”..Just a li’l something connecting music and bits.Have to be careful here because some bits change lives.
