Meeting Description:

Rhythm, or ছন্দ, strings Linguistics, Speech and Music so inextricably that
one would be really hard pressed not to take notice of it. It is not
altogether a miraculous coincidence that our brain evolved rhythm cognition so
centrally to its essential functioning that humans, as a species, seem to be
biologically predisposed to rhythm; humans are particularly rhythmic animal.
And, although we are far from answering the inexplicably intricate questions
to the origin of rhythm cognition and sensitivity in the species' evolutionary
history, it has been largely established, in no mean measure, that Rhythm is a
multidisciplinary field of intrigue. As such to christen this maiden and
modest endeavour by the School of Languages and Linguistics in collaboration
with Sir C.V. Raman Centre for Physics and Music as ছন্দ, we wish to humbly
acknowledge that we are aware of the challenges that a holistic approach to
describe the human condition via the diligent exploratory pursuit of the human
sciences, tempered by a scientific outlook, driven by the quest for empirical
truths yet balancing our inferences with a judicious amount of rationality, as
we endeavour to unravel it's flummoxing enigmas that have bemused and continue
to befuddle the most devoted and keenest of minds that have ever ventured or
aspired to expound, elucidate or simply decipher it's mind-boggling cryptic
riddles, and make contributions to the global capital of knowledge, no matter
how small, yet always original, authentic, sincerely genuine and
optimistically significant. We have adopted an interdisciplinary approach and
elected to peer into the human mind by studying human languages and music and
their cognitive aspects that may also result in such an inspiring and
intellectually stimulating and revelatory output that might spur innovation in
the domain of artificial intelligence and automation for human assistance akin
to actual human cognition that would provide potential solutions to problems,
practical and theoretical.
