Just a side note. I knew Blake to be a poet, mainly because of The Tyger but I only recently learned that he was quite the prolific and eccentric painter as well as printmaker. His out-of-this-world paintings were mostly based on his visions and dreams.

That's why this video struck me so much - it was a perfect match to Blake's lines which have haunted me since I first heard them.
