SHOCK HEAD SOUL

Publicatiedatum: 14 augustus 2015

The project was developed in collaboration with psychoanalyst Helen Taylor-Robinson with the support of a Wellcome Trust Arts Award.

A feature length documentary, using drama, animation and interviews to explore the relationship between society, psychosis and technology. Key images in the project are inspired by sexual and technological image repertoire of Daniel Paul Schreber’s late 19th century visionary/psychotic autobiographical writings.

Associated website http://www.shockheadsoul.com/ explores the relationship between Daniel Paul Schreber's delusions and technological innovation of the period, contains extended interviews with the psychiatrists, psychoanalysts and doctors featured in the film.

I can provide stills and a PREVIEW DVD of FEATURE FILM created as part of practice based research project Drawing in Time.
