Andrew Lyman-Clarke has been doing media art for about ten years, beginning with short parodies created with his friends and relatives.

Prior to that, he had always been in school plays, written stories, drawn cartoons, sculpted, painted and generally shown an aptitude for art.

Now, he is fortunate to be at an outstanding liberal arts college where his resources, in terms of personnel, equipment and information, dwarf his aspirations. In addition to filmmaking, he pursues evolutionary studies in an effort to understand human life.

His burgeoning interest is cognitive neuropsychology- where a hard science meets a soft one, shedding light onto "the most complex piece of matter in the universe": the mind-brain. Other interests include circus performance and musical improvisation. He tries to be completely present at all times in order to get the most out of life.

One day, these efforts, in conjunction with his dream studies, may yield the secrets of time travel. Filmography: Deathwatch (2000), Dig (2000), The Third Nymph (2001), Inhale the Poison Gas (2002), Pillow/Head (2004), The Allegory of the Cave (2005).
