Up Up and Away

Looks so toxic.

The Golden Compass movie is coming out and I was reading the sequel last night and thinking a lot about Dust (yes the capital D was intentional ^^). The background kind of reminded me of how I thought of Dust and Dark Matter and all that :)

There’s this great quote from the book that says:

“You have to beconfident and relaxed at the same time. You have to be capable of being in uncertainties, mysteries, doubts, without any irritable reaching after fact and reason. You have to get into that state of mind.”

Which reminded me of Astral Projection. Which reminded me of the band Astral Projection. And Aurelius is doing this weird manip of me as a robot and he told me to look at it while listening to Astral Projection… so I turned it on and threw it together.

Aaaand that’s basically what inspired this piece. Though really I was just bored and decided to do another manip hehe.

It screams Marry Poppins.

    Read the Trilogy and loved it, not so sure about the movie but then they are almost never as good as the books from whence they spring. This is a great interpretation of the idea of Dust with a capital D.

    I have always thought this was a quite practical way to travel, plus, the umbrella folds up quite nicely when you arrive!
