An Illustrated Anatomy : 1.Hysteria 2.Childbirth 3.Cure

A medical slide-show animation made for a night of music and art organised by Laura Kirby at All Saints Church, Newcastle upon Tyne, in August 2006. This was played before the main act, Diane Cluck.

I owe much of the material to my father, a retired GP, who's medical magazines and textbooks I have been greedily rummaging through since I was a child. As well as being a celebration of medical advancement, this collection presents a history of hideous misconception about cures, criminology, women, childbirth, and mental illness.

Please forgive the occasional blurriness of the images. Unfortunately at this point I didn't have access to a scanner, so at short notice I had to make do with photographing the images from the pages.

The soundtrack is provided by Land of Nod and Transient Waves.
