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.

Cleanse myself with vitamin health, but I'm already gone

Had an amazing drawing day at college today! We covered the room with webs of coloured wool, which I sat beneath and drew for hours whilst listening to the above album. It was kinda dreamy. xx

Fine and undemanding yellowness

So I started a tumblr! Just for stuff that isn't appropriate here and when I can't bring myself to form a coherent post. Take a look: http://grinandbearitzine.tumblr.com/

Art shows us what it is to be human

The electric feeling

This week at college we've been doing illustration, which was probably my favourite (and last) topic! We were given a brief with five questions/prompts on it, one of which we had to choose and illustrate. I (and most people) chose Explain out of body experiences. I found a really interesting website by the Out Of Body Experience Research Foundation , which contained loads of testimonials from people who claim to have had out of body experiences. Some were cheesy, some were baffling, but regardless of whether they were "genuine" or whatever, I found them poetic and many provided some interesting imagery.  Here are a few examples of my intial ideas, which culminated in a series of four posters and a little zine.

This is actually a quote from an interview with Roger McGough, about a kind of false/altered memory he has.

Nice scanning skillz

This is just a little taster, as scanning and editing is laborious!
I hope your week has been as fun as mine :) xx
