M-Cube, a unique infotainment programme blending music, memory, and meditation, was staged at Kharghar as part of the annual celebrations of Kharghar Kerala Samajam. The event, held at Sri Lewa Patidar Samaj Hall, was organized under the auspices of the Samajam and drew an enthusiastic audience.
Presented by Prof. Pushparaj, the programme was conducted in three engaging phases. It began with a soothing musical session, where live flute performance created a serene atmosphere and captivated the audience. The highlight of the event was the memory segment, where the audience actively participated. As many as 108 items—including objects, names, and abstract concepts—were collected and displayed. Impressively, Prof. Pushparaj accurately recalled them in sequence and in reverse order. He also demonstrated remarkable numerical memory by reproducing a 60-digit number forward and backward, earning wide appreciation.
The final phase focused on meditation, where simple and practical techniques to improve memory and concentration were explained, emphasizing the importance of mental discipline in daily life.
The programme was coordinated by Sajesh Nambiar, Secretary of Kharghar Kerala Samajam. Prof. Pushparaj, a faculty member in Mechanical Engineering at Amrita University, Coimbatore, is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence.
The innovative M-Cube programme, combining education with entertainment, left a lasting impression on the audience and is expected to attract wider attention in the future.
