Elsewhere In India | Can you rebuild culture in a club?

The year is 2079. India survives only in memory. Digital artist Avinash Kumar (Thiruda) and sound designer Sri Rama Murthy (Murthovic) invite you into a one-night simulation to rebuild it. Would you step in? ‘Elsewhere In India’ drops Australian clubgoers into a collision of electronica, Indian classical sound, AI art and 3D worldbuilding. The duo behind the experience speak to Suhayla Sharif about the global pull of Indofuturism. Listen on SBS Spice, wherever you get your podcasts.
