What definitely changed, is the way we experience flying itself. One could say flying has always been the ultimate feeling of being free of gravitation and in a more metaphorically sense, an image of liberty. Leonardo's flight is an investigation of this metaphoric image. Click on the polaroid to engage your flight.

About the author Michiel Knaven studied violin and photography in the 80's and works and lives in Holland. In the nineties he started working with computers, had his first netart works online in 1996 and produced in 1998 his first cd-rom called "nachtmusik 6".
