Kolkata case

Kolkata, a city of joy to Indians, for us a city of dispair. Making a toeristic guide about slums in this mega city wasn't an easy task. Time passed by looking for information and maps that could make this black hole understandable and explainable. Deeper and deeper in the spiderweb, trying to unfold it's structure and reason. Then Newtons apple hit us, illuminating the idea of total absence of structures and rules as a focusing point. In peace with the facts, we actually managed to clearify a certain part of Kolkata, without losing it's main striking character. Even in the presentation, the chaotic aspect of Kolkata unintendedly ruled our explanations and elucidations. A relief that there's the guide, our guide, to clearify any confusion......
