Delving more on the theme, The new normal has left us all staying indoors in anguish. In the absence of physical spaces and proximity, the virtual world is a welcome bubble where we find an alternate reality away from these hardships. MICANVAS 2020 invites all to the digital world - an alternate reality with umpteen possibilities envisioned through the beloved MICA campus.
