Thank you Dominik - 

Anyone have contact information for Shivamurti Swamiji?  I've been to the web site of Taralabalu Jagadguru Brihanmath (http://www.taralabalu.org/) where he now is but there is no contact ink.  I've searched elsewhere on the web as well ... Context of original request:

I was at WSC 10, myself being responsible for the then-new website of RV and SB, http://vedavid.org/ -
January 3-9, 1997 was World Sanskrit Conference in Bangalore at Taralabalu Kendra. One India paper (english, TImes of India?  India Herald?) paper ran several photos on the front pages, especially of one of the main sessions.  

I checked available online news archives but they only went back to 2001. Anyon have way to get a PDF if you have it in your files? Those 7 days only? Front page? 

We are doing a history of computer studies with Vedic, and 1997 World Sanskrit was a major set of breakthrough presentations on this.  Can I get a copy (pdf, etc.) of any photos any of you might have of sessions (any) please?  We need this in the next few days if possible.  We have a small budget, but if you can get this to us in a few days, we can find a way to renumerate you.

thanks in advance,
jr

Hi, John, I do remember the interview, now that you mention it.  I was hustled over to a journalist with zero notice :-)

I don't have any record of any of that, I'm afraid.  However, the Taralabalu Kendra might have something in their files.  Shivamurti Swamiji, who hosted the WSC, is still the head of that place and he is available by email.

Best,
Dominik

Greetings - 

Working on an archival project related to origins of computer/internet use with indology.  WSC 10 (Dominik, please see below) at Teralabalu Kendra was a sort of presentation to society for the computer scholarship world. 

The press took lots of pictures, there was an opening invocation ceremony (see image of program attached) from what I remember I think it was the 10am Inaugural at the Vidhana Soudha?  It was not in the main Kendra auditorium.

An India paper had a front page with photo of the event (that one or another), it was an english language paper - liek India Herald Tribune, or such.  Does anyone have a scrap book copy of that photo/front page?  Cell picture, whatever is fine.

Dominik - do you remember at that conference there was a TV interview they did with you and I in the main auditorium of Teralabalu Kendra? Do you have any info you can share with me offline, of course?

Thanks very much in advance ... and I hope all are staying safe and healthy ...
