S(t)imulating Desire is a hypertextual fiction project looking closely at the cross-section between simulation and stimulation through a textual interface, producing a confluence of early to late internet culture, game aesthetics, and net.art. It takes into account a history of erotic text, particularly looking at a varied and long-spanning output within the Indian subcontinent, especially through the lens of poetry.

B-grade cinema has also had an influence on this project, especially with the production around a language of desire and eclecticism in narrativisation.




This project is part of the 25 x 25 Initiative by India Foundation for the Arts, supported by lead donor Kshirsagar-Apte Foundation, and philanthropy partners Titan Company Limited, and Priya Paul and Sethu Vaidyanathan.
