Hello and welcome!
I’m Sindhu Shivaprasad, a writer and creative technologist living in India and shaped by the many countries I’ve lived in and travelled to.
Kindred Spirits is where I unpack the joys and tribulations of crafting an intellectually and creatively rich life. Some recurring themes you might find across my essays: agency, writing and acts of creation, design, cultural and literary theory, technology and digital anthropology, and whatever else is the ‘flavour of the month’ in the current season of my life.
My writing draws from my deliberately interdisciplinary background: between undergrad and postgrad, I’ve studied and practiced journalism, English literature, sociology, psychology, philosophy, ethics, print design, political science and economics.
I also write creative non-fiction and research essays for other independent publications, which you can find on my website sindhu.live.
