Chaos Rules !!!


"What you do in life echoes in eternity" said a noble man once. But we at Complete Chaos believe that, "what u do on stage, echoes in people's hearts." Hi, we are Complete Chaos, the mad-ads team of PESIT, Bangalore. I think that line explains a lot "Chaos" in this blog :)

Birth of Chaos....... On a fine spring season in 2002, when Bangalore was at its "green" best, and we were a bunch of enthusiastic freshers, Team Chaos suddenly came into existence under the Greenwood tree which stands tall in our very own Open Air Theatre in PESIT. It began as just a thought. A couple of like minded guys ignited a small spark, which is now burning as a passion.

Sneak peek........... Are you wondering what mad-ads is? Well mad-ads is a brief act that is performed with many scenes, aimed at promoting a hypothetical product, using creativity to the fullest. Primary motivation for mad-ads is to achieve the toughest thing possible...."to make people laugh consistently." A typical mad-ads act consists of some 8-10 actors who act according to a background voice. That voice, is of a Narrator who does all the "talkies" part of the mad-ads. All the actors synchronize to accomplish the primary goal, and spectators of a mad-ads event would agree ,that the goal stands accomplished!

The Chaos Studio... PESITians might have seen some behavior behind the music room occasionally. Yup that's us. That's our Den. The Den is where every act we put up is written, practiced and chiseled before it goes on stage. This is where we have maximum fun. A typical Chaos practice session starts very slow and dull like an aircraft on taxiway. But once we get into the mood... its just full throttle all the way.
What inspires us, are all the small events that happen when friends meet. All the sarcastic, cheesy humor that comes up are the inputs to the Black Box of Chaos, and the output is.-a super amplified and modulated version of that small instance. Some very catchy ads in the TV are also used. Spoofs are the thing which keeps a mad-ads act alive. Here's where u can show maximum creativity, and extract laughter out of any given situation. Even significant current affairs are not spared. These are the inputs to the potion of laughter, which indeed delivers.
The practice sessions are more entertaining than the real thing. The various Bloopers that come up leave our tummies aching. We just can't pen those instances, they have to be experienced and not told.

Brothers under the Sun.... From Aatmatrisha '02 till date, the team has treaded various paths. Some rough, and some as smooth as Mysore Road. But at the end of all this, we still found light at the other end of the tunnel. Chaos has given many performances not only in mad-ads but also skits. The most prestigious victory came, in the 6th Annual VTU Youth Festival organized in Davangere. The event was a skit copetition, where a strong message had to be put across. We r proud to say, out of the participating 44 teams from all across Karnataka, Team Chaos bagged the Silver Medal. The same skit also was performed in home ground, @ the OAT in Aatmatrisha'05. For those of u who missed it, it is called "The Race of Life." The race of life addresses the problems faced by young engineers, who go abroad with alacrity. The Race of life was also performed by us in Ranga Shankara, as a platform performance, which opened the critically acclaimed play "Final Rehearsal."
Team Chaos has grown from a few guys under a tree, to a big Community. All thanks to good people like yourself who extended their appreciation and continue to inspire us. Now, team Chaos is no longer just a team, but can be aptly called as "Brotherhood of Chaos." The Chaos-mania continues even after some team members depart, now reloaded with a new lot of "Brothers."

Lastly, we would like to leave u with a statement, which has been the icon of our team.
"Chaos..... is the new Order" - Complete Chaos.
