Lectures 19 and 20: The Boring Lecture - Valuable Life Strategies for Escapin...Fahri Karakas
ART DESCRIPTION/SYNOPSIS: "THE BORING LECTURE"
“Curiosity and creativity are the new productivity.”
Dr. Fahri Karakas
Despite the abundance of entertainment media at the touch of our fingertips, we easily feel bored these days and we desperately want to escape from our mundane lives. Boredom strikes us particularly hard when we feel trapped by endless tasks, responsibilities, habits, and routines in our lives. We want to escape and immerse ourselves in new worlds – perhaps worlds that are more colorful, exciting, rich, and novel. We seek adventures to save us from all the baggage, drudgery, stress, and anxiety that surrounds us.
‘The Boring Lecture’ invites you to new possibilities and exciting life strategies to escape from boredom. It takes a bit of imagination, courage, and experimentation to get out of boredom (the rut). We will try to escape monotony and mediocrity through embracing uncertainty, curiosity, and wonder. Towards this goal, we take on a cross-disciplinary tour and explore geeks, mavericks, eccentric artists, weirdoes, crazy entrepreneurs, inventors, dreamers, mind-expanding authors, and insane filmmakers. As we travel from the sublime to the ridiculous, we will expand our sense of what is possible. Asteroids, stars, black holes, computer games, books, and movies will accompany us on our wonderful journey.
We will travel through our body, our mind, our sleep, and our dreams. We will try to solve two dozens of mini-puzzles and we will experiment with a dozen mini-learning adventures. We will explore future disruptive innovations and potential trillionaire sectors. We will learn about the new gold rush: The space economy. Finally, we will fly through space and land on Mars. We will learn about the Mars Generation and imagine what daily life might look like on the red planet.
This will be a wild tour – far from boring - are you ready?

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Editorial - Team Kalasanthe
Serendipity invented corn flakes, potato chips and even fireworks! So,
one day a member of our editorial is contemplating the idiosyncrasies of life, brushing
his teeth. Before he moves one more muscle, a woman jumps out of nowhere and
shouts, “Kya aapke toothpaste mein namak hain?” He replies, “Mom, neither does
our college's canteen! I could write an article about that.....” He suddenly realizes
something, the camera closes in, his eyes dilate, heartbeats get louder..........bam! He
spits out the toothpaste!
That's not the story of how the magazine came about. I just wanted to
make sure that we all grew up on an overdose of melodramatic Bollywood movies.
The idea was quelled since two years in our heads and in a recent chat with our
Principal, it erupted. In less than a month, a full-fledged campaign began, thanks to
this hot political season. The lava spread throughout the college, meandering through
myriad assignments, internals and a yet-to-be built new building. Has the IT Dept.
seen that yet?
It was hard work, bringing out the magazine, we daresay, as there were
more bumps in our journey than the ones that off-Kanakapura Road extends you
everyday. “Oye, wake up Kushal! Get your neck over here, Karthik! Your lappy's
struck, Shilpa! Open the door, Rakshak! Stop drinking Pepsi, Akhliesh! Sandesh has
gone completely missing!” There were even times when we chased around
houseflies calculating it would keep us from thinking. Breaking bad, there a little bit!
An initial cold response, second internals (a big round of applause for
that, fellas) and a tight deadline interlaced with Kalasanthe-2014, put us on our
pinkies. Waddling through endless ideas, articles, photographs, post-its and Gmail
themes, we had to script out the untold stories of our college and its people since its
inception.
We left no stone, no page unturned (forgive us, Metallica!) for this is the
first magazine completely wielded by the students. We shall be elated and honored
when the magazine is out there on the servers, for we, for once got the chance to
unite the voice of our buddies into Kalarava. But we are sure to miss the fun we had
bunking classes, typing attendance letters, assaulting the CAD lab (our unofficial
headquarters), teasing each other and yet when it came down to the moment,
working as one.
We wouldn't have enough servers at AT&T to thank each and every
person who helped us through this colorful odyssey. Special mention to our Principal
Dr. S. N. Sridhara, Dr. Vijayalakshmi Akella, Professor and HOD, Civil Dept. & Mr.
Ravikiran B. A., Asst. Professor, ECE Dept. for their unwavering support. But without
you all, my fellow college-mates, Kalarava would have been buried deep, under
layers of our academics and the stress of our stifled creativity. Now, that finally the
birds of the same feathers have gathered, let the Kalarva begin! Ruffle
through.........

5. Abhishek Kagganti, a student of eighth semester, Civil Dept. is not only an
entrepreneur, but also a social worker and a self-confessed foodie. He is an
incredible pet of our Principal and a hard man to reach. But once you have
his undivided attention, he is easily one of the friendliest persons to connect
with. With a polished sense of humor, a hearty laugh and a MyCan, he gets
gossipy and gives us more than what we asked for. A true entrepreneur,
indeed! Here is an excerpt from the conversation that Karthik Srivatsa and
Akhilesh Halvi had with him.
What motivated you to become an entrepreneur?
Basically, being an entrepreneur is making your ideas work and getting
money for it. I hail from a family of businessmen. Naturally, I was motivated
since childhood to have my own enterprise. My dad worked in a store and
ever since I was put in charge of the cash counter, I was developed
interested in business. Today, I am a successful entrepreneur, according to
me.
How you balanced between your company and studies.
Studies were a necessity. My company was always an interest. Everyone
knows getting through engineering is about studying at the last minute. It was
more than enough for me to get an aggregate which companies require.
About my company, I was always keenly interested in developing it and
seeing it in a good, respectable position. My company is around 5 years old
and in the future, I would like to see it reach great heights.
Your favorite part of being an entrepreneur.
Every day is a challenge. Seeking the challenge and finding a solution shows
the true grit of an entrepreneur. Personally I feel being innovative fetches all
the solutions to any problem. That's my favorite part.
Do you believe you are good at what you do?
I am actually not as good as I expect myself to be. Though I am successful, I
want to be more hard working and dedicated. I feel I am lazy but I have been
successful in the past and I think it’s working out for me.
Tips for your juniors.
I am an entrepreneur and I wouldn’t expect everyone to become one. A
person can also be good at anything he wishes to be. Do what you love.
Pursue excellence instead of money, and success will follow. This is what I
would like to suggest.
Interview – Abhishek Kagganti
6. Plans you have for your company in the future.
After my engineering, I want to work under somebody, learn the qualities of
leadership and discipline prevalent in a corporate company and later
inculcate them into my company.
How the college helped you to discover the entrepreneur in you.
This college has pushed me to the highest level of excellence.
Entrepreneurship is in my blood. I was a first batch student. I had the unique
opportunity to start our college fest. I am proud to be the secretary of the
cultural forum Aarohana, which organizes all events of the college fest. The
biggest and toughest job as a part of it for me was to approach companies for
sponsorship and cut deals with them. This helped me to discover the
entrepreneur in me.
How you plan on managing so much money and pressure at such a young
age.
When you love management, I don’t think there’s any pressure. Earning
money gives you pleasure, not pressure (Laughs).
Your feelings when you got into this college.
I had thought it would be fun hanging out with my seniors. After college
began, I found out that I was in the first batch. As my dad told me, "Swimming
in an ocean gives you more exposure than swimming in a pond." Being in this
college was like swimming in an ocean where I had to tackle many problems
as a first batch student.
Given a chance to be the principal, changes you would make.
(Laughs) I would definitely be more student-friendly. I would include
discipline. I would like to impregnate love for education in students. I would
approach them personally about the difficulties they are facing.
Your favorite entrepreneur.
Vijay Mallya! He’s the person I admire the most and he is the best according
to me. He’s the King of good times! (Everybody laughs)
7. If you have ever been called from a class for “feedback” and then had the
smug pleasure of rating your favorite teacher on a computer, then you should
thank Srinivas Kulkarni, the mastermind behind the “feedback” software. He
is an eighth semester student of the Computer Science Dept. known for his
consecutive FCDs & a tech-savvy swag. He is a hardcore gaming-freak and
app-designer as well. Kushal S and Akhilesh Halvi, in an interactive chat with
him, find out more.
How you feel about topping the class every time.
It’s a good feeling. There must be healthy competition in order to be
interested in anything and I think that is what drives me to score good marks.
But in the end all that matters is what we learn and not the marks.
There's also a gift from the college when you are a topper.
Magic formula for success.
There is no “magic” but logic, “Play hard work harder” is what I believe in.
Follow this and success will follow without any magic.
When did the programming bug bite you?
When I needed certain applications and I couldn’t find them I felt it would be
better if I can build what I need. This is what drove me to start programming.
Time management.
Good time management is what makes anyone successful. I prefer to have a
timetable fixed and work out a plan with lots of breaks and other activities
along with studying. Following this time table will surely help me in managing
my time.
Future Plans?
I'd prefer to work in the IT industry. It’s where all the new technologies lie and
I would like to dive into it. Also MS in the near future is my dream.
Story behind the Apps you have created.
First app was created in my fourth semester, called “Master Mind”, a game
written in C, which challenges the player to guess a randomly generated
number within a certain time limit. I created this app in lab when I got bored
after executing my programs. Next was the “Feedback Project” which used
VisualBasic and .NET to take feedback from students every semester and
generate a detailed report. I felt a certain redundancy in the way the feedback
was previously taken (on paper). So by automating it, we saved a lot of time,
and paper and in turn saved trees.
Interview – Srinivas Kulkarni
8. Your programming pets.
I love Windows programming. It’s easy to learn and good way to start off
programming. I did a project using VisualBasic and .NET in V semester. If
anyone wants to begin programming for small/medium scale projects, I would
suggest them VisualBasic or C# as it’s easy to learn and have fun designing
the application.
Support from the college you got.
Yes, I had very good support from my lecturers and principal which made me
what I am today. My work here was shown in KSIT and the same was
implemented there. This shows that the college is completely interested in
students' projects and help us in every way they can, if your work is good
enough.
How good is it to measure your success, by the number of offers you got?
I don’t think the number of offers one gets determines how successful he is. A
person without any offer letters can also be a successful person. But it has
been quite a joy in having getting multiple offer letters. I would like to thank
my college for that.
If you were given a chance to be the principal of this college, what changes
would you make?
Not many I suppose, as what has been done now is pretty good. But I feel a
more practical approache needs to be given. We learn all these amazing
languages like SQL, Java, C# etc, but we don’t really know how to build a
fairly good application using these. There must be an industry-oriented
approach to these subjects to bridge the gap between the academic and the
real-world knowledge.
9. Interview – Krishna Prasad
When its Aarohana time in our college, you see this one person’s name being
called over and over, “Did you see KP, by any chance?” or “If you need that,
go see KP!” and everybody’s beloved KP himself is hardly seen around. But
he is the backbone behind our college’s mega-event. He may not be the
person you see shaking a leg in the limelight, but he is the person you can
resort to if something needs to get done, if something has gone horribly
wrong or if you just need someone whom you can relate yourself with or
speak to. Kushal S & Akhilesh Halvi gossip with him over a cup of coffee.
Tell us about your transition from a regular college-goer to a successful civil
engineer.
My family has been in the field of Civil Engineering since 30 years. So,
naturally I developed a passion for construction and architecture. Even before
I began my degree, I used to handle small projects and as I went on studying
Engineering, I gained in-depth, technical knowledge. Currently, I have
finished up with 8 large-scale land developing projects and at the helm of four
more.
How you managed between handling your projects and academics.
It was really tough. There was a lot of responsibility. I didn’t want to give up or
give in. I used to wake up at 5 in the morning, go to the site where my project
was going on, work out everything there, go to college, attend all the classes,
go back to the construction site again, go back home and study late into the
night, then wake up early again. But it was my passion and dedication which
kept me up and going.
What you dislike about having so much on your platter.
I actually love most of the work I do. But sometimes, I get weary of the entire
burden on me. There are pressure-filled deadlines and there are a hundred
people who depend on your judgment and the decisions you make.
10. Tips for budding engineers.
Enjoy what you do. Keep a good balance between your academics and the
fun you have. Plan everything with a goal-oriented approach. But before
going out there and facing the real world, prepare. Recognize your
capabilities and your limits. Your whole journey of life is a journey inwards
discovering yourself.
Your company’s future.
I am into the green building concept. I want to inculcate it into my projects. It
is an eco-friendly and a more sustainable way of construction. Ten years
down the lane, I would like to my see my company reach its zenith.
Your experience hosting Aarohana.
Aarohana was initially held at a very primitive level during the first couple
years, but then it was taken to a whole new level. Despite all our differences
of opinions, we learnt to be unanimous. It was a great experience for us
managing the crowd and meeting new requirements every moment. I
remember sweeping the floor after ‘Rangoli’ competition in the inaugural
Aarohana. I am proud to have organized Aarohana in its roots. I can also
daresay that, in just four years, the grandeur of the event has soared to new
heights, surpassing all expectations.
Your philosophy for success.
Dedication and faith. Study hard. Get some good exercise. I recommend
yoga. Indulge yourself from time to time. But never overdo it. Success is not
measured how you do when you are successful, but how you bounce back
when you fail.
Given a chance to be the principal, the changes you would make.
No dress code for the students except the seniors. I would also not compel
anybody to wear ID cards all the time. I would like to bring in a more practical
approach to our academic subjects. Trust me, by the time you finish your
degree you would be bored of all the theory that is crammed into your brains.
11. Kalarava
I couldn't resist cracking this PJ that Kalarava is best served with upma-rava
or make use of the inherent pun in the word and come up with this cheesy
one-liner, “This magazine cannot be published in black and white! This after
all, is Kalarava!” But all in all,this is the most intersting section of the
magazine, as this is where the most of the creative chirping happens.
Assignment
Before every internal,
There is a task, so crucial.
They insist we do it, saying its beneficial,
No matter what, this task always seems colossal.
Sleepless nights we spend,
Ending up writing things we ourselves never understand.
At times what we write, is never right
Yet we manage to get it corrected, even after putting up a fight.

12. Memories Down The Lane
I remember the days we spent together,
With all the silly fights and the laughter.
Oh! What joy it was, to eat together
And stand up for one another.
The care we had, when we prayed for each other
And sang together.
Laughing all the time, when we were the stars!
Waging our little wars!
Those faces, filled with innocent loving smiles,
Forever with me they last!
All day long in work I am lost,
But the day never ends without a glimpse from the past!
What sorrow it fills me, when reality strikes my heart..!
Knowing,
Those days were lived in my past!

13. TEENAGE
I say teenage is the worst stage of life
To get our things done, we are always in the midst of strife.
We are all busy in getting better than the best,
While our parents are busy comparing us with the rest.
Watching television is big crime,
As a teenager, I must say life is boring,
So boring, that I feel to go on snoring,
I wish I can return to the lovely times of my childhood,
And go on dreaming, in my beautiful world of joy and happiness.

16. SEEKING HAVEN
When the God is cornered by the evil’s might,
I pray to thee for his compassion.
When ignorance fools the intellect,
It is by knowledge that we differentiate ignorance.
As honesty is a luxury,
Choices are often made not to afford it.
Let the falsehood perish as truth alone triumphs.
As hatred is noxious and destructive,
Let white flowers blossom in every heart.
Love is preposterous when it is a conditioned one.
Let it be infinite as it has the potential to be.
Let the darkness vanish,
As you illuminate me, by your presence.
As one concludes life, that breath is temporary,
Let the spirit of soul urge for Freedom.
O lord, I bow down to thee, the creator of cosmos,
As the truth knows that every creation finally merges into you.

18. WITHIN US EXIST SUCCESS AND FAILURE
“Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising every time we
fall.” so says a meaningfully carved adage. Success and failure, triumph and
defeat are the two faces of the same coin. The probability appears equal
when tossed. Life sprawls around us far and at times is a mountainous task
to surpass a small tributary and sometimes is an ingenuous job to cross a big
river. Everyone with knowledge exerts, sweats and toils, but only a few
succeed in life. How’s that?
The answer lies in the fact that we generally forget that the mind is the
‘door’ in us and the body is only a tool. Normally we lose confidence in
ourselves and proceed from rational to empirical, which is not desirable. At
this juncture, we have to justify and console ourselves with the following
epigrammatical lines.
There was a man who failed in business at 31, was defeated for the
legislature at 32, failed at business again at 34, last his beloved at 35, had a
nervous breakdown at 36, was defeated in the election at 38, was defeated
for Congress at 46, was again defeated for Congress at 49, was defeated for
Senate at 55, was defeated for Vice President at 56, was again defeated for
Senate at 58, but was elected President of the United States of America at
60. This was Abraham Lincoln. Lives of these edifying great then have
always reminded us that success is a ladder and one cannot climb it with
one’s hands in one’s pockets. It can be reached only through conscientious
and persistent effort.
While in the process, we need a lot of patience, perseverance and
confidence, which pay back. After all, you are what you think. Therefore,
there must be a well-chosen objective; once when it is selected, the sheer
tenacity must drive the soul to the top. The right sort of ambition of
challenging nature must be to run along to achieve the tremendous spur.
A man who does not really want to do a thing can have any number of
excuses, but if determined, he can face any hardship with invariable power
and can overcome the most formidable obstacles.
Enrich yourself with a positive attitude, inexhaustible energy and
courage, firm faith, vibrating enthusiasm, bold action and above all, strong
belief and hope that you will win. Take up the risks and challenges, face
them, decide your destiny and fashion your future with your own sincere effort
and confirmed determination. After all, great achievements began with very
small ideas. Never accept defeat as final and buckle under it. Nothing is
impossible.

If you actually perused everything until here, pat yourself once,
for your patience deserves nothing less than a pat! We wanted
to keep the overdose of poems, essays, photographs & irony to
a bare minimum, but as this is the first edition, we figured you
would like to taste steel before blood. Before you fire up your
imagination and start to get wild, gory ideas, the second edition
is going to be no banana ride. We are gonna make it Lawrence-
of-Arabia-long! Not because we want to, but we still have an
arsenal of unpublished articles with us, from you. So, do not
dishearten if your magnum opus couldn't find its way to ISSUU.
As the cliched saying goes, “There's always a next time!”
Unfortunately, that next time needs to wait for six more months.
Already feeling Lawrence-of-Arabia-long? Steel before blood,
remember! But let us not rust the steel. Fellas, whet your brains
and fire up your imagination now! Keep your masterpieces
flowing to e-magazine@kssem.edu.in! There ain't no quenching
creativity's thirst, for when the Kalarava returns the next time, it
is gonna bigger, better, louder and more colorful! Quoting Tyler
Durden, “I say, let's evolve!”
