ASMR at the museum | Handling a puppet book | V&A

Показать описание

// Listen with headphones for best experience //

Join curator Assistant Curator Catriona Gourlay inside the National Art Library as she handles and prepares the artist's book 'Anansi Company' for photography. The book consists of 13 delicate handmade wire and card rod-puppets which are based on the tales of Anansi, which spread from West Africa into Caribbean folklore as stories shared orally by enslaved people.

Sound designer and performance-maker Julie Rose Bower has documented Catriona's delicate examination process using ambisonic sound, letting us get closer to the object than ever before.

Watch as Catriona gently slides the puppets out of their paper slots, and shows us how they can be manoeuvred, wearing gloves to avoid getting fingerprints on the metal.

This video should be an hour long! Beautiful sounds and slow hand movements. It's one of the best in the series, thank you!

My favorite of this series so far. Catriona needs her own ASMR channel. She is excellent!

Imagine being an artisan, seeing your work handled was such reverence.

V&A has some of the best ASMR videos on YouTube. Change my mind

Thank you for these videos! I can't afford to go to art school so watching your videos makes me feel like I can still learn the art world from all over. 🥰

Those puppets are absolute masterpieces. They are so ingenious and intricate. So glad to see a video made with these treasures.

Ah V&A! These eight minute videos are such a tease! I love your ASMR at the museum videos so much please make them longer! I learn so much and they’re so fascinating but they also are so wonderful for ASMR

There’s something about doing delicate, dexterous work that makes people’s voices go all soft. Like when she’s sliding the puppet in and out of its page. Love that

justkelly

Best one in the series. I keep coming back to this one! Please keep making these. ❤❤❤

justkelly

My only wish is for these videos to be longer because they are damn amazing

i really admire that these super interesting books are being preserved so perfectly even though they're much newer than a lot of the other books i can see in the background, for example, and that the conservator is being so careful with both the puppets and the book. on the other hand i couldn't stop imagining how fun it would be to be a kid reading this book and getting to play with the if i had this job all i'd be doing was making the little hawk fly around the room

We need more of this. Real situational ASMR has a completely different quality than the intentional or staged videos.

I love visiting the V & A, I could spend my entire life in there and still have more to see. These videos are such a brilliant thing to do, sharing these amazing works of art with us all, my new favourite thing to watch. More more more please 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️
