My science fiction in Tamil in www.popsamiti.com

Dear friends,

          I am happy to share with you that one of my science fictions in Tamil has been published in www.popsamiti.com.

       The science ficiton is titled "Iyanthira malar" meaning "Machine Flower". This ficiton is part of a project undertaken by popsamiti in Londan.

     The project is a platform for artists and writers to explore themes in art and culture with the aim to forge new narratives for the 21st century.

As part of this project a call was given to our group by the project head from London inviting contributions including science ficitons in south Indian languages. As I write in Tamil and English this was personally brought to my notice by one of my science colleagues during a chat.I submitted two contributions.After several months of prepration a POPSAMITI paper has been launched in London in August.During the preparation several interaction with the project head was done including sending the Tamil font file and proofing the fiction.Due to space constraint one of my science fictions out of two sent has since been published.

My science ficition titled "IYANTHIRA MALAR" meaning Machine flower has been published in the 14 th page of the paper.

The gist of the story is the protagonist Bhrathwajan's sky-taxi mal-functions while in space when a woman rescues him by docking her sky-taxi with his and landing it to safety.The woman Selenna and Bharathwajan fall in love. Selena is from space colony. Bhrathwajan wants to marry Selenna after matching the RH facor. Selena takes leave of him after he proposes to him never to return. He goes in search of Selena to space colony. What he came to know was shocking : Selena was programmed woman destined to destruct at a particular time. She vainly tried to extend her life time but gets destructed and no she is no more. Yes she is an android or a machine woman(that's why the ficiton is titled Machine flower). Even though she was a machine her memories will take a long time to fade from his heart.

The paper is available online in www.popsamiti.com.

My story is on the 14 th page of the paper.

I will be there as Mohan Sanjeevan.

Thanks for reading. Yours vauable comments welcome.
