Over the weekend, Shayna S, jrf, and I experienced various interpretations of Alice's story.  We watched Neco Z Alenky, possibly the most disturbing Alice movie we could have chosen.  The movie focuses mostly on (disturbing) images and does not feature as much conversation as the book.  The narration, even the dialogue of other characters, is all told by Alice, perhaps to reinforce that it is all inside Alice's head.  Her narration is very repetitive and childlike, while the movie is way too creepy for most children.  Of course, I do not doubt that a child could imagine extremely creepy things.

these are just a couple of relevant pictures i found

i really liked your post, it had musings and layers and was an interesting read

it did make me think though, and here is my train of thought-

yes, reality as we see it is definitely open to interpretation, and is subject to what the perciever sees and how they see it. but is there a reality that lies deeper than that? one that is subject to interepretation but that is constant because of that? is there a universal truth? and if there isnt then what do we spend so much time searching for? is our search futile?

i would say its not. becuase not only does our search equip us with the tools to form our own reality, it also brings us closer, by one tiny step to this 'truth', which i think sits somewhere in our subconsciousness.
