| Abstract | Today, New Delhi with more than 10,000 people speaking an estimate of 122 languages [1], has led it to enter into a new kind of multilingual anarchy. The conversational language has disintegrated into an array of jargons, idioms, acronyms, abbreviations, and symbols. ZOR SE BOLO presents 5 of the most commonly spoken jargons of the capital, (“Thoda adjust karlo”, “Bhai kuch jugaad laga”, “Tu jaanta hai mera baap kaun hai?”, “Tum toh bade log ho”, “No Problem ji”), in the form of interactive installations to be displayed at the Delhi International Airport (T3 Terminal) with a view of providing a linguistic tour of the capital. Two of the design concepts (“No Problem ji” and “Tu jaanta hai mera baap kaun hai?”) were successfully prototyped and exhibited. The concept was achieved in 3 main phases: literature research & analysis, design and implementation. “Touch” and “Speech” were used as interaction mediums to design an experience such that people relate to the individuals and their lingo through the audio they hear after triggering the installation. Body language / gestures of the mannequins in the installations becomes a metaphor to reach out and establish contact between people of different tongues, from different cultures. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
