SUMMARY:India's Fifth Taste: From the Kitchen of the Northeast
DESCRIPTION:Unknown to the larger world\, the Indian food story has its own fifth taste if one peeps into its Northeastern kitchens. Call it Khaar\, Kola-khar\, Kharsi\, Kharwi\, Kalchi\, Kangmoi\, or Khari — this earthy flavour\, made from the ash of banana peel and bark\, ensures that dishes cooked with it can’t be pinned down within the four basic human tastes in which we box the Indian food story. It is time\, therefore\, to amend the story and carve out an Indian food atlas that truly lays its claim to a uniqueness that is as much its own Umami as it is an ancient practice. \nSangeeta Barooah Pisharoty is the National Affairs Editor of The Wire\, formerly a special correspondent of The Hindu. She receives critical acclaim for her documentation of the Assam Movement in her debut book\, Assam: The Accord\, The Discord. Sangeeta begins her career at the national news agency United News of India and becomes the first woman from Northeast India to be employed at the agency’s New Delhi headquarters. \nFree Entry \nRSVP is compulsory \nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #IndianFoodStory #Taste #EarthyFlavour #Uniqueness #AncientPractice #AssamMovement #NationalAfairsEditor #UnitedNewsofIndia #Career

SUMMARY:Craft\, Draught\, Micro\, Marco
DESCRIPTION:In the world of beer\, a few words keep cropping up: craft\, draught\, micro\, and macro. But what do they really mean? And how do these definitions shift across Indian states and global beer cultures? \nTo find out\, we turn to Aditya Challa\, the man who helps put Goa on India’s craft beer map\, founder of Susegado Microbrewery. His story is about building an identity for a state already known for its laid-back Susegado ethos\, and marrying that cultural rhythm with the precision and creativity of brewing. \nFor Aditya\, it means pushing through regulatory hurdles\, navigating licensing systems\, and making the case for why a microbrewery coexists with\, and even strengthens\, the state’s food and drink culture. He partners with local chefs for beer pairings and supports local farmers where possible. In Aditya’s words\, “Susegado isn’t about doing nothing. It’s about doing things well\, without rush.” A philosophy worth toasting. \nFree Entry \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Talk #BeerCulture #Craft #Draught #Goa #Creativity #Microbrewery #LocalFarmers #Ethos

SUMMARY:Humans in the Loop
DESCRIPTION:‘Humans In The Loop‘ essays the story of an indigenous woman who begins interacting with AI while working in a remote data centre in Jharkhand. \nThe film is based on a phenomenon happening in the indigenous regions of India\, where tech companies have established offices for “data labelling.” It is a process that involves meta-tagging thousands of images and videos to teach an algorithm to recognise and differentiate between objects—essentially\, becoming the first step in machine learning. \nThe outsourcing of this labour to rural areas is driven by the availability of cheap labour for this task. However\, the intersection between indigenous communities and AI presents an opportunity to explore a larger narrative about humanity’s future. The work of data labelling mirrors the process of parenting\, where the labourer takes on the role of a parent and AI assumes that of a child. This opens up a conversation: Is AI (the child) a blank slate\, or does it inherit the biases of its human creators? \nThe film was awarded the prestigious FIPRESCI Award for Best Feature Film (International Critics’ Guild Award)\, 2025\, jointly shared with ‘All We Imagine As Light’ \nFree Entry | Limited Seats \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register

SUMMARY:Pari: Stories from the Margins
DESCRIPTION:In a media world that often overlooks the voices of people living on the margins\, Jyoti YL’s journalism stands out\, and she has won numerous awards and accolades. Her work at the People’s Archive of Rural India (PARI)\, traces the lives of those pushed furthest to the peripheries: tribal women like Tulshi Bhagat\, who gathers palash leaves from the forests of Shahapur and travels over 40 kilometers to Mumbai to earn a meagre living; Bhil women in the Satpura ranges of Nandurbar who suffer chronic pain from untreated uterine prolapse; displaced communities uprooted by the Samruddhi Highway and other development projects. \nFrom Thane’s vanishing riversides to Amravati’s demolished schools for nomadic children\, her stories bring us the truth of how marginalized lives are routinely disregarded by state policy. During the Covid-19 pandemic\, Jyoti covered children with visual and intellectual disabilities and captured how isolation had deepened their vulnerabilities. Reporting from the ground in all these areas\, her journalism is a combination of evidence and empathy\, along with great storytelling. \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Journalism #People’sArchiveofRuralIndia #TribalWomen #Communities #DevelopmentProject #IntellectualDisabilities #Empathy #Storytelling Vulnerabilities #NomadicChildren \n

SUMMARY:Conversation and Rain Dogs Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Step into a world of visual storytelling with a special conversation featuring acclaimed photographer Rohit Chawla alongside Katharina Kakar\, Atul Sarin\, and Hemali Sodhi only at Museum of Goa. This conversation will precede the opening of ‘Rain Dogs’\, Chawla’s latest body of work\, his most introspective yet. \nRecently awarded India’s first Industry Craft Gold Lion at Cannes in 2023\, and having swept two Grand Prix honours at Spikes Asia and the Abbies in 2024\, Rohit brings to ‘Rain Dogs’ a deep sense of stillness\, solitude\, and quiet resilience. “These are perhaps some of my quietest and introspective works\,” he shares. “The pictures show resilience and the inner lives of these dogs.” \nRohit Chawla is widely regarded as one of India’s foremost contemporary photographers. With a storied career that began in advertising\, he later founded his own design and film production company. His solo exhibitions have ranged from Wanderlust and Tribute to Raja Ravi Varma to Banned Books (2024)\, each project reflecting his diverse artistic engagements. As the former creative director at India Today and Open magazine\, he produced over 400 iconic covers. \nThe panelists will discuss the state of stray animals in Goa and across India\, exploring both government regulations and the perspectives of civil society. The conversation will dig into how these issues are being addressed and why the welfare of strays remains a critical concern in our evolving and increasingly urbanized society. \nFree Entry \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Storytelling #Conversation #RainDogs #Stillness #Solitude #QuietResilience #Contemporary #Design #StrayAnimals #CivilSociety #UrbanizedSociety \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Mapusa Mogi Project: An Ongoing Community- Centric Public Art Project in Goa
DESCRIPTION:Mapusa is a historic town that Orijit has loved intimately for over 25 years. However\, in recent years\, this unique place—a cradle of Goan culture\, commerce\, and cottage industry—faces a rapid decline. Orijit believes public art plays a powerful role in awakening community consciousness. \nIn July 2023\, he secures an art grant and the necessary permissions to begin the Mapusa Mogi Project (‘Mogi’ means ‘lover’ in Konkani)\, a community-centric public art mural made entirely in ceramic and glass. The grant allows him to form a team\, rent a studio\, conduct workshops\, interview locals\, and complete the first 8 metres of the mural\, now known as the Centrepiece. \nBut there is still a long way to go. The final mural spans 100 metres. To realise the next phase\, the team is launching a Kickstarter campaign on August 12\, 2025\, with a goal of raising $30\,000–$40\,000 (₹25–35 lakhs). This base amount allows them to complete the next 20 metres of the wall. \nOrijit Sen is a graphic artist\, muralist\, and activist. His work spans public art\, comics\, and design\, and is widely exhibited nationally and internationally. Grounded in social observation\, his stories—set across times and geographies—remain deeply rooted in the politics and emotions of the present. \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Talk #Mapusa #GoanCulture #Commerce #CottageIndustry #MapusaMogiProject #Workshop #GraphicArtist #Muralist #Activist #PublicArt #Design #SocialObservation #Politics #Emotions

SUMMARY:Mining\, The New Regime
DESCRIPTION:Should We Be Heading Towards Another Mining Shutdown? \nMining is halted twice earlier because it is deeply inequitable for the people of Goa. Now\, mining restarts under a new framework. On paper\, it appears that things have changed — but has the underlying problem truly been addressed? \nThe Mines Department facilitates the restart of operations\, yet safeguards are missing. Goa still lacks a lab to test ore quality\, leaving room for underreporting and undervaluation. There is also silence on the long-overdue restoration of lands scarred by mining\, and over 750 million tonnes of mining waste remain unaddressed. \nGiven all this\, we must ask: Is Goa ready for this restart? Or are we once again drifting toward the consequences that force previous shutdowns? Should we be calling for a third\, possibly permanent pause until the groundwork is responsibly laid? What role can the courts still play? And how can ordinary citizens participate meaningfully in these decisions? \nRSVP is compulsory\nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Talk #Mining #PeopleofGoa #Mines #Problem #Operations #Restoration #Responsibility #Consequences #GroundWork #Safeguards

SUMMARY:Who Plans in Goa?
DESCRIPTION:Everyone is talking about land in Goa. Type it into Google and you’ll find a host of influencers suggesting investment in the property market. Open the local newspapers\, and you’ll see constant stories of villagers objecting to construction projects. \nTahir Noronha is an architect and urban planner currently pursuing a PhD at UC Berkeley. With roots in Goa\, his work spans planning law\, conservation\, and community governance. He leads the Charles Correa Foundation in the past. \nIn this session\, Tahir traces how land slips away—enabled by officials and resisted by citizens armed with little more than RTIs and hand-drawn maps. Goa may be small\, but what happens here raises a powerful question: when the selling of land replaces its protection\, what do we do next? \nRSVP is compulsory. \nPlease WhatsApp your name to 7722089666 to register! \n  \n#MuseumofGoa #MOGSunday #Talk #Goa #Land #PropertyMarket #ConstructionProjects #UrbanPlanner #Law #Conversation #CommunityGovernance
