EP 69: Who Runs The World?!: Itu Chaudhuri’s reflections on Art, Technology, and Human Existence.


Listen Later

This episode is incredibly special to me, as I sit down with Itu Chaudhuri, not just a brilliant designer, and a design entrepreneur, but someone I deeply admire for his unique way of thinking about life, art, and the world we live in. Itu has also been a columnist with the likes of Economic times, Business Standard, and his has his own newsletter called ‘the yellow envelope’, which I highly recommend you subscribe to.


Him and his team at ICD have worked with numerous multinational brands of repute and have produced award winning work over the years. Check out their website linked below to get a flavour.


Our conversation goes far beyond design—touching on existential questions like Who really runs the world? We discuss the intricate relationships between art, design, and craft, and Itu shares his powerful insights into how technology and AI are reshaping our lives and future.


More than anything, this episode captures Itu’s deep reflections on what it means to be human in a rapidly evolving world. We explore his philosophy on life, his early influences, and his views on spirituality and the concept of God. There’s a personal side to this conversation, too—his worldview is something that has shaped me, and I can’t wait for you all to experience the depth of his insights.


Whether you're a designer, a thinker, or simply someone curious about the bigger questions of life, this episode will leave you thinking long after it ends.


Itu’s wisdom and worldview have personally inspired me, and I’m excited to share this conversation with you. Don’t forget to subscribe for more thought-provoking episodes.


We hope you will enjoy this episode and let us know your thoughts in the comments
