Alter Magazine #5 Launch

About Alter:

Alter Magazine is a monthly journal shining a spotlight on innovative literary writing around Science, Technology, and Progress from South Asia. Our mission is to transform readers' perceptions by presenting contemporary geniuses, cutting-edge ideas, and groundbreaking discoveries. This journal captures the region's diverse energies and aspirations, not only seeking advancement for South Asia but also contributing to the narrative of global human progress.

While Alter primarily exists in a digital format, we celebrate each story with an engaging offline event that echoes the article's theme. Typically hosted in India, this edition is an exciting Bay Area special!

About the Event:

Join us for the launch of Alter #5, starting with a delightful cup of Indian vanilla ice cream and a thought-provoking question: Why does ice cream in India melt so quickly? 🍦

We'll explore the journey of an ice cream tub from factories to freezers, and from local shops to your hands, revealing the hidden science behind its fleeting life. Delve into the rich history of ice cream, tracing its legacy from Mughal kitchens to Turkish street vendors, and discover the creativity behind this beloved treat designed for all, yet tailored for none.

Join Chandhana Sathishkumar, the author of the featured piece, alongside Sparsh Agarwal, co-founder of Alt Carbon & Alter Magazine, for an engaging discussion that goes beyond just ice cream!

This event is a tribute to ice cream itself, encouraging us to pause and reflect on the everyday delights we often overlook. After all, nothing cools our spirits quite like ice cream! 🍨
