There is no life without light. knowledge and intellect are equated to light alternatively called as aura. Light defines the course of the life forms on earth. Some faiths have described soul as form of light inside the human body. Suicides are reported from places where light is scant for extended periods of time. It is a proven fact that light deprivation can lead to mental depression. Keeping aside the essential lighting humans further took fancy in illuminating their dwellings, streets and public places with progression of technology. Fanciful lighting always indicates colourful night life. Country's progress is read by the rate at which it's energy needs are met. Those countries who produce power in excess of their basic needs soak in gleam,never to black out. Dazzling streets, well lit magnificent structures, night length of unasked glow is true depiction materialistic well being for any country. It is a world different altogether. If any such city is to be named as city of lights it is LasVegas. It's energy needs can probably lit a small state in India at the basic level. How justified it is to lit up a boulevard with blinding dazzles when a child finds his light not enough to read his class book in one part of the world? ? These are series questions which would intrigue a conscious soul. Probably every man feels this way. But the system works like this. Given a city opting to black out for years in one society, it is not going to shimmer a shack in another part of the world because countries are divided by boundaries with each one having it's own resources and priorities. Constant presence of poverty in one corner of the world were to deter the world's indulgence probably mankind would not have seen one LasVegas, spaceships, Hotel Burj Dubai, Twin Towers, Disney Land, Qingdao Haiwan Bridge, Changi airpor etc. They narrate the episodes of great human artistry attainment. They truly dispense pleasure to the spectator. The one who witnesses them may not live in those moments eternally , but gliding by those galvanized minutes is good enough to kick start his life once again.

Aesthetics Of Nonaesthetics
Thanks to University of Nevada, Reno for giving me insights into new art forms. Brushes and canvas are fading and students are required to be tech savvy to create an astounding art piece in contemporary art world. I used my obsolete camera to snap few pictures which are is no art in conventional sense but appealed good in template.
