She sought out amateur stargazers, visited state-of-the-art observatories and researched the history of the field. Gradually, it became clear that her interest in astronomy was linked to lost memories from her past. After all, the night sky is a kind of shared memory; the light of celestial bodies takes hundreds, thousands or millions of light-years to reach our eyes on earth.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003cem\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003eBlinked Myself Awake\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e, photographer Bieke Depoorter explores the power and fragility of memory, the human desire for objectivity and the elusive nature of 'truth'. She does this by interweaving photographs of amateur and professional stargazers, diary-inspired texts and fragments of astronomical history, in which often-forgotten female astronomers play a role.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold a-text-italic\"\u003ePLEASE NOTE: This book is a NON-MINT item.
