The Holographic Universe (part one)

The Holographic Universe (part 1) by Annabel Duggleby from Annabel Duggleby on Vimeo.

You guys, I made a film! It’s just a short experiment to work through some ideas. It was inspired by a book called ‘The Holographic Universe’ by Michael Talbot, in which it says that near-death experiences (and death itself) “are really nothing more than the shifting of a person’s consciousness from one level of the hologram of reality to another.” Isn't that beautiful?

Also, it sounds much better with headphones!

In other news, I bought some nice brie today. Yum.

I'll tax your feet

Here's a few pictures of my day. I've spent most of it listening to the Beatles and playing with a new app (well, new to me) that takes kaleidoscopic, prism-like photos, whilst making this lovely twinkley sound. It's really trippy and addictive. And then I made a little study/ studio area in my room with this beautiful wooden school desk that my Dad made about 30 years ago. I've also been churning out the continuous line drawings, drawing my face by feeling it, with my eyes closed. It all sounds a bit silly but I really like the results, especially my very first portrait (second pic) which has a kind of sad presence.

And now I think I'll go watch some Derren Brown.

Count the headlights on the highway

I have an interview for art foundation on Friday so I'm sifting through, re-doing, and mounting work for my portfolio. It's tiringgggg but actually kind of fun. This post is pointless but I need something vaguely 'productive' to do on my 'crisp break'. I'd forgotten about these photos I took through a prism. I quite like them, they're kind of trippy...
