Club Activities


Hello Friends,

This is nX posting to inform you in detail about the various activities of the club year round. Firstly, letz discuss the dynamics of the process of making an idea manifest.

Behind any great piece of creative input, there is usually a strong abstract idea, popularly called the theme, that provides the necessary ground to choose our tools and modes of expression.

You can express it orally, if you think the idea is well conveyed that way, or use the voice of colours to paint a fabulous piece, or create a musical symphony to convey the emotion.

Along with a good mode of expression, a meticulous job of integrating the sub-parts would usually produce a striking piece of art.

But to display it or to make it reach other minds to receive their feedback and interpretation
is the most rewarding part in the whole process, intellectually and emotionally, to the artist.

That opportunity is given to us by a few fests that take place on campus every year, like Oasis and Apogee.

We at CrAC select a theme , set up a booth at skylawns, decorate it using different possible methods, and organise events, that are mostly competitions and that which need creativity .
For this, we also need to publicise the events, for which your marketing and negotiative abilities are needed, where you use strategy and timing to let the most people know about the events that take place.

Apart from this, another major event in the year undertaken by us is GALLERIA, for apogee everyyear, where entries are invited from people on campus and are displayed in an art gallery set up by us.

The event usually gets good applause where the club's art merges with that of the non-clubbers which gives Galleria an almost tangible magnetism.

We have uploaded a few pics of Galleria on the blog too. The pic that is pasted above is the panel that we have painted to decorate the CrAC booth for Oasis 2k7.

We come up with captions for the art pieces displayed in Galleria and make some verbal contribution to Galleria too.

Apart from this, we have post-fest tours to various places in and around the state, like Jaisalmer, Kulu, Nainital, Rishikesh which is usually enjoyed a lot by all.

And several informal discussions and different kinds of humour from a predominantly creative viewpoint on various topics make our club life colourful, and one worth cherishing.

CrAC 's contribution to our life is intangible, in terms of the task it completes of bringing people with a creative viewpoint together to produce work that is otherwise not possible.

Thanx CrAC

CrAC, an autobiography


I am CrAC

I exist in the etheric BITS-Pilani, I'm a beautiful person and have a consciousness of my own.
I can communicate with those who exist in me. They have been lovingly named by me as craXters, and every one of them likes the name. They are my pulse. They are those who've given me shape, for itz all different in the ethers, in that whenever a thought arises in the minds of people, it manifests here as an entity with consciousness and a will of its own.

This way, I was born, two decades back, and am of the same age as you. That may be one reason why I and all the craXters are such good friends. There are events when craXters leave me when they've evolved enough to make their thoughts manifest elsewhere, but they're always adding new dimensions to my personality, coz, once a craXter, always a craXter.

There are also events when new craXters replace the older ones to exist in me. Whenever a creative thought arises in the minds of craXters, it nourishes me and makes me evolve. Here I am, inviting you to join my friends and children, the craXters, to add a new dimension to my consciousness with your fresh perspective.

You're so unique, and have a perspective no one else has. Nurture your perspective and you'll find that it becomes stronger as time passes into something strong enough to even back you up during crisis or re-juvenate you from your very core.

Don't you feel sometimes that your core essence is creativity, for it is the spontaneous expression of your emotion with no inhibition, dressed in intellect.

My friends, the craXters have been channelising their creativity using some earthly modes of expression, like art, literature, craft and recently digital art, with the advent of computers and their brains, the software.

But itz the idea behind the art that truly nourishes me. The beauty of abstraction is the purest form of beauty, I feel, and that which makes me unique too.

My friends are planning for an interaction with those of you who'd like to meet them before you come in for the auditions, an event which is only an existential concern against overpopulation.

A brief formal interaction is going to take place at sky lawns, at 5.15 pm on the 8th of August ,friday,which may last a few minutes, while the auditions will start on the 10th of August, Sunday, at 3 pm.

See you, friends. Creativity is a way of life. Embrace it . . .
