Next: Draw the invisible food you give to your gnomes and unicorns.

When I read this, I thought it’s a great idea. It would be really interesting to see the drawings and people’s feeling about their souls. However, I think that colored pictures should be encouraged, because most people do probably think that Soul is something etheric, nonmaterial, and using only black or dark pen(cil) might be too limiting when you want to express this.
I do understand that colored pictures take more space or are more expensive to print and I do know that our opinions differ, so I might actually be the only one who finds it difficult to draw a soul with a dark colored pen. .-) But even if this is true, colored pictures may show more .-).

This reminds me of the Great Cosby Experiment:

Good luck!

I’m sure most people know, but it would be nice to have a “dot com” at the end of each gmail.

Cheers,

Hope this project works well. I’ve sent a picture of my “soul”

I suspect the ultimate beauty will be in the variety of drawings and not in the reduction of all drawings to a formal idea. Einstein spent the last years of his life trying to reduce his findings on relativity to watertight equations. In reducing relativity, he missed out on one of the greatest discoveries: black holes. Interestingly, another physicist, Robert Oppenheimer, used Einstein’s equations to prove the existence of black holes. So perhaps by working from reduced visions we are able to expand our own again? Looking forward to the results.

I have no idea what I look like.

I thought the yogis already determined the soul looks like a coiled serpent that resides above the head, with three and a half coils to the serpent body. Since you’re probably a Westerner reading this, look it up since you don’t believe me.

I’ sorry, my english is not so good, i haven’t really understand, how should i upload the picture of my soul.

However, It’s a beautifull project.

My soul has been compressed to little under 1.5mb and posted.

Be careful with it.

In Castenada’s books it’s said the soul looks like a mushroom. In one of the earliest books about the dead sea scrolls, an interpreter claimed that the scrolls indicated Christ was a mushroom. And that the Summarians worshiped the mushroom as a representation of the soul. Castenada said that souls too attached to the world, had huge stems; whereas souls that had achieved peace, and took little from the world were more easily detached and move more quickly to respond to changes. The Hindus all believe in the power of the Godhead. And Freud was a numb skull cocaine addict, out to lock everyone into a system of categories, in which there is little freedom and no enlightenment. Some believe the Bible is written in doublespeak, to throw people off from it’s real meaning, because the early Christians were being treated as little more than animal food. So paint my ‘shroom glowing bright as the sun, and let it shine, let it shine! So wake up children, those seven extra dimensions they’re trying to find with the Hadron Super Collider, may be in your soul full mind’s infinite abilities. Eu ROPE?

just a note to say thank you..
for what you are doing, the information you convey, presented as it is (in an easily accessible and enjoyable manner) has an ability to create a new awareness, and i hope will reach an audience of proportion. honestly, this is one of the most creative, most fun, relevant, (powerful) and necessary works i have had the pleasure of viewing for some time.. i wholeheartedly believe that what you are doing is making a positive impact in the world. congratulations (!)

also, for the record, if i were to detail my soul i would draw an egg shape (larger side as it would sit toward the bottom) where if it were the size of say a thumbnail there would be dead center in the upper two fifths-two thirds toward the top a perfect circle, the size of a pinhead, just large enough to see the detail inside. i would use a dusted colour, surprisingly, a light blue, starting from the interior of the egg shape but with a gradation swift enough to allow pure white to remain inside the circle, and near that circle radiating outwards (for at least the size of say, and eraser head on a pencil).

no offense intended to the people who are posting that their soul is just theoretical or fake, but you shouldn’t be posting comments here if you do think it is a farse. please go live your reality, and let us dream and share.

bright white veil with a soft golden tinge, swirling around an endlessly circling wave of color and void.

so…. any news on this?

Is this piece of art still active? Can I still give a sneakpreview of my innersoul? I’m wondering what others send in as well :)

Do you have these on display at all? At the end of my advertising classes, our professor requires us to hand in a dvd of all of our work from that semester. Since my major is Communication Design, his philosophy is that everything should be designed. We have to come up with 3 logos to put into this dvd case and booklet—descriptive mark, symbolic mark, and a typographic mark. I was thinking for the symbolic mark, this would be a very interesting approach to take, but I was wondering if there were any inspirational examples?
