Acknowledgement

I do not take full credit for the name of the blog. The first half of the name comes from Naomi Klein's famous book "No Logo", though the expression here remains more symbolic.

The idea of "No Logic" actually has multiple influences. It arises from a conglomeration of thoughts and ideas that have influenced me over years. A direct correlation of the expression can be drawn with a phrase of Franz Kafka, viz. "Logic is doubtless unshakable, but it cannot withstand a man who wants to go on living".

And with the longing of continuation, atleast in this virtual reality, where the necessity of being labelled and being logical can be set aside, I offer my respect to all the free spirits who keeps my hope alive.

A Tribute

Before posting any of my thoughts in this experimental cyberspace, i would like to share a few lines of a very favourite author of mine. I cannot think of anything more appropriate that will suitably set the platform for the voyage of "no LOGO no LOGIC".

ai khyapa mon ghuchiye badhon
jagiye nachon ta dhin dhin
ai beyara srishti chara
niyomhara hishabheen......

ajgoobi chal bethik betaal
matbi mataal rongete
aire tobe bhuler bhobe
oshombhob-er chondete..........
