*ajab shahar*

*Come into this colorful palace, this wondrous city*

*Oh, my swan, my seeker friend!*

-         *Kabir*



The Kabir Project is creating a lyrical web city– an *ajab shahar* –where
browsers can encounter songs, poems and conversations around the poetry of
Kabir and other mystic, Bhakti and Sufi poets, in contemporary landscapes of
music, spirituality, politics and the self.



We are looking for

*Animators and Interactive Web Designers*

to develop evocative web experiences around mystic poetry and music

&

*Researchers and Video Editors*

- to transcribe video/audio footage of songs/conversations

- to research into mystic poetry and music traditions

- to annotate, edit and upload audio, video and text content for the archive



Applicants should be inspired by mystic poetry and music and be fluent in
Hindi. Ideal applicants should combine research with video editing skills,
but both are not essential. Work entails a minimum a one-year commitment.
Remuneration would be commensurate with profile of applicant.
