Pragmatism. Application. Detail. Flexibility. And humility, above all!

]]> Comment on Everything That Counts by Naresh Khanna http://icdindia.com/blog/everything-that-counts/#comment-1412 Thu, 04 Jul 2019 06:00:29 +0000 http://icdindia.com/blog/?p=899#comment-1412 I must first of all confess that cricket is uninspiring as a sport and really should not be compared to football or tennis. It is quite fitting that the author compares it to the election coverage.

When confronted its proponents quite defensively retreat to calling it a game. Nevertheless since it has changed formats to fit into television watching possibility (20-20 is more successful in this than the one layers) it is of course commercially driven by the convenient breaks between overs. The inevitable change to shorter formats for TV watchability was easily predicted more than 30 years ago.

What Chaudhuri touches and what must be admired is that it has managed to bridge class, caste and religion in India. Credit must also be given to the Indian administrators for leveraging the game commercially to the extent that in its shorter formats it has evolved into a sport.

Yes the coverage is the thing (medium is the message?) and here the numbers, graphs, trajectories in both cricket and elections essentially are accompanied by a high level of verbosity (logorrhoea?). In the both cases difficult to hide the lack of real and interesting action on the screen.

Loved every moment of the learning. And to see how ‘infographics’ have taken over the entire social media handles of political parties the world over…twisting statistics their own way to peddle their own myopic stories!

]]> Comment on The Three Ages of Olympic Logos by AnimationVisArts http://icdindia.com/blog/three-ages-of-olympic-logos/#comment-1157 Wed, 18 Jul 2018 09:51:22 +0000 http://icdindia.com/blog/?p=324#comment-1157 The first thing which comes to mind when one thinks of Olympics Symbol is the pentad colored rings. The Olympics symbol meaning and the significance has a historic philosophy behind it.

It was 1912 when Baron Pierre de Coubertin got the idea of polychromatic rings to be used as the logo for the modern Olympics.

The worldwide popular Olympics games are the foremost sports event organizer on an international level, including both summer and winter games.

The logo of the Olympics has a white background with rings of colors blue, black and red in the first
row and of yellow and green in the second row. The pentad colored connected rings symbolize the five continents of the world; Asia, Africa, America, Europe, and Oceania.

The rings are colored with at least one color of the flag of every nation. These colors were chosen to represent every nation that took part in the Olympics games making it an international symbol.

The co-founder of the Olympics Symbol (Logo) has clearly revealed his opinion about his motto behind the multi-colored interlocked rings.

“The Olympic flag has a white background, with five interlaced rings in the center: blue, yellow, black, green and red. The design is symbolic; it represents the five continents of the world united by Olympism while the six colors are those that appear on all the national flags of the world at the present time”.

Since it was the time of World War 1, the designer of the Olympics logo, Baron Pierre de Coubertin wanted a symbol that attained global acceptance and represented peace and solidarity among the nations.

The Olympics is the highest platform for sports competition where sportsmen from all over the world participate. The rings were designed in an interlocking manner in order to represent the unity among the continents.

The Olympics logo has been fortunate in impressing the world with its simplicity and attractiveness universally.

You’ve shown every (at least modern) Logo in a way how they’d been used in official material – and in that case Munich would have always been shown locked with the rings between two border lines.
I also don’t share your opinion on it’s severity going against the motto of cheerful games – keep in mind it usually was shown with its light blue or green background. Sicher was very keen on avoiding dark, somber colors (esp. red and black) in the corporate design, out of his experiences with the Third Reich and he was a deeply humanist person. For him though design didn’t have to be cheerful and cutesy in a way it seemingly has to nowadays (Sydney and Rio, looking at you) to convey a sense of celebration.

And Glaser’s ranking is pretty moot in m opinon, it feels like he’s given just some random marks – must be his age.
