"Lapse of Memory" is a short film I've recently completed which aims to give a new visual perspective on some of the prehistoric sites of Northern Britain. The film combines the photographic techniques of high dynamic range imaging and time-lapse in a panoramic format, and is made up of over 70,000 individual photographs.
Shot over the summer of 2008 as part of an MSc in Creative Technology, the film covers a number of sites in North Yorkshire, Cumbria & Scotland.
Please contact me at [email protected] for any comments about the piece.

It is a feature length documentary that visits over 100 megalithic sites in the UK and Ireland in a journey that starts at the Ballowall Barrow at the tip of Cornwall and finishes at the Tomb of the Eagles on Orkney. Also on the DVD are; a film interview with the two creators, Michael Bott and Rupert Soskin; Outtakes; Unused footage; The original 10 minute pilot film; a slide show of the making of the film and a full-length producer/writer's commentary.

Set up by a co-operative of like minded people wanting to bring people and communities together, along with their ideas, so that we can all make a difference in the world. It is a place to discuss issues around sustainable living, alternative dwellings, living off the land in harmony with nature, alternative spirituality, to name but a few. We would like people to contribute their experiences, learn from others, and unite in making this planet a better place to live.

Using the new Google Co-op feature I've created this search engine which may come in useful.
Enter your search term & it will Google it across the whole web, but giving preference to the megalithic websites I've put in - TMA, Megalithic, Megalithomania, Stone Pages & others (inc. mine).
Even better you can suggest more sites to include, definitely including your own if you have one-the more the better!

Although the website has many styles of photos, I have concentrated on megalithic sites in Ireland over the last few months. The old stones galleries feature hundreds of photos of about 60 megalithic sites across Ireland. Updated regulalry.

For a comprehensive review of entoptic imagery in rock art.
Not just substance induced patterns, as is often bandied about, but also naturally occuring phosphenes.
It's an old review ('95), based on even older material (mostly 70s). But it's a subject that may attract interest due to the current trends in Cognitive Archaeology.
|
Posted by Hob 4th May 2004ce |
"Cognitive archaeology is the branch of archaeology that investigates the development of human cognition. It therefore deals with a great variety of evidence, ranging from early rock art to other forms of palaeoart, from animal cognition to palaeoanthropology to psychology and ontogenic cognitive development, and it also needs to concern itself with evidence of early human technology and the ability of domesticating natural systems of energy."
Good link at the bottom to a site on the age of rock art

'An antiquary', observed the satirical writer Samuel Butler in the 1660s, 'is an old frippery-Philosopher, that has so strange a natural Affection to worm-eaten speculation, that it is apparent he has a Worm in his Skull. He values one old Invention, that is lost and never to be recovered, before all the new ones in the World, tho' never so useful.'
Noel Malcolm reviews 'Antiquaries: The Discovery of the Past in Eighteenth-Century Britain' by Rosemary Sweet.

Best archaeology bookseller bar none. Based in Oxford where you can see their stock (including some second hand). Otherwise get on their catalogue mailing list - it's free and full of bargain book offers and good potted summaries of new books. If you want a non-uk book in print - they'll get it.

For the 'oldies' out there. Remember The Ley Hunter, the 1st earth mysteries magazine. Well Jimmy Goddard has scanned in the early editions of the magazines from 1969 to 1976. The quality of the scannings a bit 'iffy', but these long out of print articles might contain a wealth of information.
Enjoy

The official site of Carnac's 'Menhirs Libre' (Free the Stones) society. Menhirs Libre have campaigned tirelessly for the preservation, presentation and freedom of the Carnac alignments since the erection of the fences over 10 year ago.
Madame and Monsieur Mary live within the stones and thier own home is to this threatened by the plans.
Although the 'Menhirland' proposals have supposedly been dropped confusion still reigns over the fate of the menhirs.

This site has lots of information about flint knapping - history, practical tips...
The link is direct to the section about folklore connected with prehistoric flints - for example, the arrowheads that were later presumed to be 'elf-shot' in Britain, but it discusses how such tools have been interpreted and used throughout the world.

Don't let the appalling acronym put you off. This is a really useful web site containing rural and countryside information from a number of Government agencies including English Heritage.
NB. The MAGIC map is designed for use with Internet Explorer 4.0, Netscape Navigator 4.6 or higher and a screen resolution of 800x600 pixels or higher. This is not a site for modem users either.
