This image describe the culture of India. "Working with electronic and new media since 1983, his work in online gaming performance, electromechanical installation and real-time web-based video transmission have been shown throughout the United States and abroad. Much of his work over the past decade involves taking creative agency in online shooter games and virtual communities like Second Life. His SL names are: Joseph Grommet and MGandhi Chakrobarti. I learned a lot about him through his Facebook and felt like a stalker. He is very much into current events and his art. He is also color blind which I found very interesting because he’s an artist. He is also an avid item collector wherever he goes and toys."
