Click on ANGER – my new video on Youtube. But maybe open a vigorous track by Fourplay before you press play on my link.

Almost all my slide-shows can be found on Youtube @theanthonyhowell here

There is also STENCIL ART – which has content Youtube might consider inappropriate – so it’s on vimeo.

I don’t usually add a soundtrack. Anyone who needs a soundtrack can open some accompaniment that’s of their own choosing. But sometimes I make suggestions – as I do above. Some people prefer watching without sound.

I did make a slide-show to accompany my introductory reading of an excerpt from my novel The Distance Measured in Days

The slide-show extends the tradition of contending with the portrayal of time in visual art, which can be seen in the procession taking place on the frieze of the Parthenon. As we walk along its length in the British Museum, we imagine we are standing still and the procession is passing in front of our eyes, and then there are the narratives Sassetta portrayed: three incidents in the life of some early Christian saint shown happening in a single picture. And then, as we move nearer to today, there are comics and animation. So for me, it was rewarding to hit upon the slide-show as a way to narrate a visual poem.
