Bridges as an architect would put it – as a connector; a messenger to forward exchanges between two grounds. It has to be…

Jackson Pollock : Drip

You might have watched the blockbuster – The Accountant . Excellent choice! The guy who knows the rules and hijacks to his advantage.

There is Light at the end of the Tunnel

Many, many years ago I exchanged a few conversations with a professor in mathematics/ statistics over a Go-chess game; refer to end text or Google to learn about the game. And of course the reason why I am sharing the narrated version of the conversation is because of its relevance to the topic of this…

Hijack-ed via mobile apps

Our platform was hijacked a few times while I, the founder and sources from contributory groups forwarded their first-hand information to NaoRococo.
