Into Eternity

The Conny Plankton response to lockdown is this video based on a selection of videos produced by my wife and myself, mixed and interwoven into a Conny Plankton audio track.

The title of Into Eternity comes from William Blake and Plate 5 of his illustrated book, Jerusalem: Emanation of the Giant Albion:
"I rest not from my great task
To open the eternal Worlds,
to open the immortal Eyes of Man
Inwards into the Worlds of Thought;
Into Eternity, ever expanding
In the Bosom of God,
The Human Imagination."

Lockdown and the Fear of the Coronavirus Plague Continues. People react in many ways to the new restrictions and repressions. Some in wilful ignorance and disbelief. Some in outright rebellion. Some in their own walls of apathy and despair.

And some, by turning inward: Into Imagination. Into Eternity.
