About Me
I’m Divya. I read, write, research, code, and love to discuss about those with others as I learn. Mathematics is my background, specializing in differential and geometric topology and this also keeps me fingertips away from physics. Apart from mathematics, my cup is always overflowing with various strands of philosophy, a good chunk of psychoanalysis, snippets of literature and verse, some art history and some neat love of technology that glues all those together. With those personal tidbits aside, what you’ll see here is a reflection of the crossroads at which I operate in these fields and my thoughts on those. When I’m not reading or writing, I’m tweaking and fiddling around with my GNU/Linux setup on my computer. Here’s how you can reach me:

About the Website
This website is a number of things: a personal archive/showcase, a blog, an amalgamation of content from various fields, a digital garden, and lastly a place that promotes libre/free software.
As an ardent supporter of copyleft, everything available on this website is licensed either by GNU GPL or by a license that’s compatible to GPL. Usually what you’ll find is that artistic, literary or educational work is licensed using a flavor of the Creative Commons licenses and for software it’ll be something from the GPL.
The name of the domain and website is a direct implication towards my affiliation to the study & practice of psychoanalysis. And as such, it forms the spirit of almost all things that appear here, regardless of whatever place or field they come from. The website also is a port of a Telegram Channel of the same name I have been running since last year, which might or might not be integrated here but will always be tightly connected.
