Gods I've Outgrown

Edition 5 | 2026

This anthology is a chronicle of severances: altars abandoned, prayers unsaid, heartbreak turned heresy. Faith here is not just in its original 'religious' sense, but extends also to the political, romantic, familial, self-shaped, and every other part of life. It is the gods of friendships that failed, of childhood dreams cracked open, of systems once trusted but later betrayed. It is the memory of promises whispered, and the echo of choosing to walk away.

Chapters :

Chapter I. Altars of Innocence — On faith, beginnings, and devotion

Chapter II. Veils of Fracture — On cracks, heresy, and unraveling

Chapter III. Tongues of Dissent — On revolt, voice, and unbinding

Chapter IV. Descent Through Fire — On hell, reckoning, and choice

Chapter V. Ghosts of Belief — On aftermath, echoes, and remainders

HOPE IN AN HOURGLASS

Edition 1 | 2022

Like a game of blind man's buff, when the midnight hour is upon us, there ensues a scramble to possess another tomorrow. We are forever boats against the current, beating on to changing tides.

The first edition of our annual anthology, "Hope in an Hourglass", features the many iterations of hope, calling in to concoct another spell.

IN BLOOM - A MIXTAPE FOR YOUTH

Edition 2 | 2023

By centering the idea of ‘youth’, our second edition hopes to pay homage to a period of our lives that is often only viewed through a rose-tinted lens. 

 

Like a mixtape, the anthology too is made with love, patience, and painstaking detail with several artists coming together. It is unpolished, vulnerable, and hopeful with all its cracks and seems, much like youth itself. Here is a mixtape of youth from our blues to yours.

PHYSICALIS: THE ANATOMY OF BEING

Edition 3 | 2024

This is a homage to the body. We exist with a body and to a certain extent, even because of the body. Standing at the forefront of existence, it is the conduit through which we perceive the world, the canvas upon which our identities are etched, and the battleground where we fight against conformity and suppression. At the heart of  Physicālis lies the recognition of the body as the quintessential medium that binds us to the universe and to each other.

BRAINROT: CIPHERS AND SHADOWS OF THE CYBERSPACE

Edition 4 | 2025

Through this anthology, we aim to navigate the intricate landscape of modern existence through the prism of imagination, satire and a pinch of existentialism. It’s an exploration of how the digital realm and contemporary issues intertwine to shape our reality.  The anthology is a tapestry of creative reflections, woven together to reveal the complexities and contradictions of our time.

GODS I'VE OUTGROWN

Edition 5 | 2026

This anthology is a chronicle of severances: altars abandoned, prayers unsaid, heartbreak turned heresy. Faith here is not just in its original 'religious' sense, but extends also to the political, romantic, familial, self-shaped, and every other part of life. It is the gods of friendships that failed, of childhood dreams cracked open, of systems once trusted but later betrayed. It is the memory of promises whispered, and the echo of choosing to walk away.
