Part of ADFF:STIR Mumbai's extensive public programme, ~log(ue) is curated carefully to create opportunities for those making, participating in, and visiting the ADFF:STIR Mumbai festival, to engage deeply, question safely, and expand laterally the discourse that will emerge from a gathering of this nature.
Through a multi-pronged approach to its programming, STIR bridges people (log/ लोग) and discourse (~logues) to stage creative encounters between top creatives from the worlds of architecture, design, film, theatre and culture. Set across experimental formats including ~monologue, ~dialogue, ~multilogue, ~analogue, ~prologue, ~epilogue and ~metalogue, these sessions put a spin on the traditional panel format – making the medium the message. The audience isn’t always a mere bystander; they shape the discussion through some of these interactive formats, participate in workshops and partake in what is to come next.
