// i have also posted a slightly edited version of this on my own blog at http://reallybigroadtrip.com/thesubjects-adlww // I’ve just uploaded a whole bunch of the photos I took during #TheSubjects. I sent some of them through to ANAT be uploaded while I was ‘inside’ but they didn’t seem to make it onto the blog, sadly. I’ve been […]

After a week inside the CQU Appleton Institute, we’ve released The Subjects into the real world. They blinked in the sunlight, ate some chocolate and then scurried away and back to their real lives – or did they? You can find out how The Subjects have been readjusting to daylight and normal hours at their […]

Thom and I are up early. I was hoping this might happen, as it’ll give me a chance to do some work without testing getting in the way. I had a broken, uneven rest, and I think I might’ve dropped off just before the lights came back on, so I’m feeling shaky, easily confused, mentally […]
