  • Summary

  • Deep dive from the rabbit holes where tech meets culture. A video podcast series by @lalalannister and @the_motonomad.

    Why did Vine fail while TikTok became a sensation? Why is film finding relevance again? The gloomy origins of Anime. The links between printing press and astronomy. The culture around us keeps constantly evolving in interesting ways and with a hyper connected, tech driven world, the dominos fall far and wide. We, Aishwarya and Akshay, often find ourselves taking a deep dive into these rabbit holes as we try to find the answers. With Decluttered, we try to take you along this journey where we dig, debate and discuss the trends we are knowingly or unknowingly part of

  • Film photography is back. Here are 7 reasons why! - Episode 2
    Jun 8 2024

    Do you remember the joy of going to a photo studio to collect "developed" photos days after dropping off a 35mm film roll? Nobody had a clue if they were gonna be any good until the roll was developed, and the only thing you could be sure of was that the empty black film canister would be used to roll dice.

    Back then, photography was slow and deliberate. Each photo was clicked with a lot of thought, and mistakes meant losing photos clicked over weeks. "Trends" arrived slower and lasted decades too because experimenting was expensive and photography, for the masses, was more serious.

    Then came the digital cameras and we all gradually flipped towards checking our photos on screens and chimping into the screens after every shot.

    However, film is back, not just with photography nerds obsessing over old mechanical cameras and darkrooms in their houses but actually slipping into the mainstream with genZ (yeah, who would have thought) adopting it in a big way. In this episode, we discuss what is driving this revival of film photography and how you can get started with it.

  • Here is why you probably don't need an Apple Watch - Episode 1
    Mar 30 2024

    What value does a smartwatch add? Does it really make you fitter and cut down your screen time? Or are you just slaving to the design tricks played on you by yet another device with screen?

    In this episode, Aishwarya and Akshay dig around and share their experiences and observations to figure whether or not smartwatches like Apple Watch or Galaxy Watch fit well in our lifestyles and how. Some interesting points against them were made but we will let you be the judge of how much you agree with.
