I research and teach User Experience (UX) design. I approach all entities from an experiential perspective. In my understanding, everything that exists has no other purpose than to provide an experience. I wish to understand and design human experiences. I play several different roles at DoD IITD. Some of my roles are:

I research. Being a researcher is like being an ant, nibbling the mountain of sugar, tasting and enjoying it. The mountain I am nibbling is the study of human consciousness. I wonder how the physiological and psychological structures have been created in humans that lead to different experiences. Every time I crack a bit of this underlying structure and I enjoy it, I publish for others to know about it. Some of my publications are shared on this page for your perusal.

I design. Being a designer is like being a tiny little confident god. Creating things from intuitive confidence and realising next possibilities upon creation. I design products, mostly digital products. but some physical as well. I offer these products as consultancy services.

I teach. Being a teacher is like completing a full circle. It’s like holding your child in your arms and remembering where you started. It is the joy of starting the journey of knowledge again with a new learner. Exploring the possibilities of knowledge every time afresh along with a new learner. The journey of learning to my mind is understanding, designing, living, experiencing, fulfilling and finally getting to the mental state of surrendered service as the pure joy of being alive. The objective of my teaching is to complete this full circle with as many willing individuals as possible.

I manage. I manage a UX lab at DoD IITD. With UG, PG and research students, I study human experiences from a neurophysiological perspective. We study the cognitive, affective and aesthetic experiences of digital and physical products using neuroscience. A brief of our lab's assets are mentioned below. I also manage a social innovation lab called DIVINE lab (Design and Innovation in Villagepreneurs' Indigenous Network Ecosystem). The lab studies new entrepreneurial possibilities using design thinking in the rural Indian context.

I collaborate. I love to collaborate with like minded people on the broad topic of UX design. Please do drop a mail if you have an idea to work upon. There is always room for well-meaning people and bright ideas at UX lab.

My current research interests are in following topics:

1. Design Academics of User Experience

How can UX design be taught across the educational system in Indian cultural context ? How can aesthetic sensitivity, colour sensitivity, user centred empathy and other design competencies, essential for UX design profession, be taught to young (and not so young) ? How can UX design ethics be taught ? How to assess the improvements in each competency ? What are the societal impacts of UX design ? How to study the societal impacts of the UX design academics ?

2. UX Design Thinking for Rural Entrepreneurs

What are the opportunities for UX design professionals in rural entrepreneurial ecosystem ? How to enhance rural entrepreneurial ecosystem of India through UX design thinking ?  Study of UX research methods for Indian rural ecosystems, design competency enhancement of rural youth, design of early childhood educational tools for rural India etc.

3. Yogic neuroscience of value based design

Modern cognitive neuroscience is facing limitations in explaining some of the human faculties related to consciousness. Ancient yogic neuroscience had models of some of these aspects like Samskara (Motivational analysis of the cognitive processes as described in Puranas and Itihassas), Rasotpatti (Evocation of emotions as per Natya Shastra of Bharata Muni), Saundaryanubhuti (Aesthetic experience of divine as in Saundarya lahri of Sri Shankaracharya) etc. UX lab at IITD is studying some of these ancient models in context of value based design for future world. For example, we are exploring how a designer's ideation process gets affected by his or her samskaras (value systems) ? How yogic lifestyles influences the decision making process and choice behaviours in product consumption process ? How creative processes of designers get value biased ?
