Glittering Void
- "The concept of culture I espouse, and whose utility the essays below attempt to demonstrate, is essentially a semiotic one. Believing, with Max Weber, that man is an animal suspended in webs of significance he himself spun, I take culture to be those webs, and the analysis of it to be therefore not an experimental science in search of law but an interpretive one in search of meaning.
It is explication I am after, construing social expression on their surface enigmatical."
- Clifford Geertz
The Interpretation of Cultures
ENCOUNTERING LIGHT
The bliss-out ecosystems of Akinori Shimodaira (aka Murgraph) push the tired medium of watercolor into brilliant new realms. Boundaries dissolve between flora and fauna, skies melt into the earth, and new networks emerge from these hallucinatory bioscapes. Click the image above to visit a hi-res gallery of her work.
Thanks, Allison!

this reminds me of the work of Robert McCall, a graphic apostle of space and the future of mankind. His work covers an entire wall at the National Air & Space Museum in Wash,DC--he also created the posters for 2001: A Space Oddyssey. The future of the human race begins in space!
