Assessment all done and handed in. There's that lightness of foot that follows... and so i spent the rest of the day sleeping, because the days before hand in are always exhausting. Bought a new sketchbook so i think i'll have a days rest and than get creative again.

Automatism


"Pure psychic automatism-the dictation of thought in the absence of all control, exercised by reason and outside all moral or aesthetic concerns" Andre Breton, First Surrealist Manifesto, 1924

aim of automatism=to access material from unconscious mind.

I decided to try automatism, automatic drawing i found difficult but when i applied the notion to music it came out with some interesting results.

But baby it's cold outside...



I do quite enjoy the snow, and i was secretly hoping to get stranded in London on Sunday so i could speand some extra time with my best friends, but the cold is something i'd rather avoid. I've got into an awful habit of watching the day pass from behind a window...not that my house is any warmer.
I have done a major clear up today...my room has been a state pretty much since i moved. And then i did some baking...cause that always warms me up, and i like to think my housemates appreciate it too.

Is this my practice?

I like storytelling


I like surreality


the state of unconciousness withing reality


the being aware of both


forming the superreal


the surreal


"Everything you imagine is real"


I want to make my imaginings a physicality


I want to be able to see it


to touch it


to experience it.
