Inspired x 10 this morning by the old Charles and Ray Eames film “Powers of Ten” (1977) and an equally old book I have on the project, detailing a path from the vastness of deep space to a couple sprawled on a picnic blanket and into the depths of a human cell. (The book came complete with a vintage hall pass for Myra issued by a Mrs. Chaffe so many years ago and found wedged in the pages.)
This telescopic-microscopic querying seems to hold a lot of potential for creative exploration. What does your work/question look like from even closer? From outer space?
But I’m also drawn to the firm but gently rendered rules for the project, detailed in the book. These are implicit in every creative undertaking but I’m curious about what happens when rules are more obscured or made more plain…
