The courtyard looked different today. It emerged that three MA Interior Design students, originally from India, had created a multisensory experience inviting passersby to experience a day in the life of a graduate student. I tried it, walking - barefoot! - across materials representing the challenges and comforts of a day, apparently in a somehow Ayurvedic way, accompanied by little plastic cups, tied to the trees, full of warm spices, and rewarded, after I made my way gingerly across dried leaves, cork, cotton, foil, tea powder, shattered terra cotta and eggshells, with a warm cup of chai. (For no reason I can quite discern, my camera inverted the middle of these pics I took.)
