Urmila Mohan is an anthropologist who established the Jugaad Project, an open platform for publishing articles on material culture.

Here are some of the topics covered in our conversation:

  • The meaning of jugaad as everyday innovation
  • The need for an open global platform to share articles in material culture
  • How published articles benefit their subjects
  • Prayer beads as spiritual technology that is only partly replaced by fidget spinners
  • Articles on bamboo weaving in Java and the infrastructure of Durga Puja in India
  • The new book publication
