I featured this documentary before but I feel it deserves to stand alone.
Watch it right after this post. These two films complement each other:
Inner Worlds — Outer Worlds.
Hamzeh Carr
The Light of Asia
The Light of Asia is a famous narrative poem that tells the life and time of Prince Gautama Siddhartha, who after attaining enlightenment, became the Buddha.
Kirlian Photography
The blaze of the force
Kirlian believed that images created by Kirlian Photography might depict a conjectural energy field or aura, that surrounds all living things.
Armin Copp
Broken worlds without end
Fractals are a wonderful way of seeing infinity. Their beauty is only secondary after that lesson in perception.
Martín Bollati
This Past Does Not Exist
The publication uses AI to mash up ages, geographies and traditions, creating virtual artifacts indistinguishable from historical records.
Utopian Visionaries
Dostoevsky & Le Guin
These two visionary tales are written hundred years apart, under very different conditions by very different authors yet they make a great match.
Stanislav Grof
The Cosmic Game
My appreciation for this lecture is beyond words. Grof’s thoughts basically touch all the areas that I want to explore right now.
DeepDream
Algorithmic pareidolia
And the hallucinatory code of perception
In June 2015 Google engineers released a couple of images that caused a stir for everyone who’s able to grasp…
Charles Fréger
Europe’s Wild Men
A primal heart still beats in Europe. Rural people all over the continent kept the connection to nature’s rhythm and celebrate the seasonal cycle. They invoke death but bestow fertile life.
David Jien
The Tale of the Inner Struggle
The narrative drawings reflect the eternal human struggle for the right path in life, alongside our demons.
Biosphere 2
& Spaceship Earth
Biosphere 2 was one of the most lauded experiments of the 1990s, then one of the most ridiculed. Now it is back, offering a unique way to put theories about climate and environment to the test.
Eyvind Earle
Master of the trees
Eyvind Earle is a master of contemplative landscape paintings. To me these dream-like sceneries are highly hypnotising.
Piotr Kamler
In Search of Time
Polish animator Piotr Kamler explores the unfathomable and mysterious relationship between movement and time, matter and space.
Anna Halprin
Breath Made Visible
Dance is not something you do for an audience to entertain, it’s a very real experience. It can heal you.
Julius Horsthuis
All These Unseen Worlds
My kind of art is showing something that exists. The fractal exists. I didn’t create it, I didn’t come up with it, I found it.
Simen Johan
Until The Kingdom Comes
The images of Simen Johan speak to me because of their perfection, showing us the animal kingdom in a supernatural…
Wenzel Hablik
Crystal Utopias
Wenzel Hablik is a visionary, an utopian architect of the proverbial crystal castles in the clouds.
Becoming
The Genesis of Life
The first stages of embryonic development are roughly the same for all animals, including humans.
The Overview Effect
& Satellite imagery
Most probably I will never look down at mother ship earth from space. But some astronauts did when they set out to explore the final frontier.
Illustrating
Infinity
In my point of view these 3D animations of mandelbrot sets are a very effective way of getting a glimpse of infinity
Terence McKenna
Reclaim Your Mind
The first video is a catchy excerpt of a long lecture by Terence McKenna. To me it seems like it serves as a battle call, the manifesto of the limitless beings we all are.
