Self Directed Project

For my self directed project I have decided to chronicle what it is like to be an insomniac. I have had the condition for years, going without or with very little sleep for days on end. The experience can be likened to 'dreaming while awake', the body and mind becomes slow, I start hallucinating and things which appear normal and everyday take on a dreamlike quality. As this is similar to what photographers strive for in their images; the beautiful and unusual in the mundane, I thought what better way than to use this to my advantage?
