Movies I watched
Rocketry – The Nambi Effect โ (IMDb – 9.1) – After many months, this was a movie that shook me. Thanks to R.Madhavan for making this and Dr. Nambi an unsung hero who’s love for this country and passion for science has no parallels. What intrigued me when I watched this movie, is the impact media (news/television/social media etc.) has in creating a viral perception (right /wrong) about a person and how we as consumers embrace that without question and judge people. In an era of AI taking over content creation and propagation, it’s very important that each one of us have some moral and factual compass before coming to a judgement on piece of info we see out there.
Podcasts Iโm listening
