Virginia Woolf --> an animation of words "Words...for it is their nature to change."

BBC* animation of "Words," an expression of Virginia Woolf's idea of what words are, in her own voice! The animated illustrations are inspired by the woodcuts created by Woolf's sister, Vanessa Bell.

Do take a look at the video. I couldn't find a version of it not embedded in a blog or otherwise. Scroll up to the video (2.21 min) in this blog link below:
Virginia Woolf --> an animation of words "Words...for it is their nature to change."

In this broadcast, Woolf says that words "don't live in dictionaries," that rather "they live in the mind." Keep in mind the author died 75 years ago. I'm doing a freestyle interpretation of her saying; I am inspired that words live in the body, in the mind and the senses, the soul and our stride.

[Excerpt from the broadcast]
“Words, English words, are full of echoes, of memories, of associations – naturally. They have been out and about, on people’s lips, in their houses, in the streets, in the fields, for so many centuries. And that is one of the chief difficulties in writing them today – that they are so stored with meanings, with memories, that they have contracted so many famous marriages.”

"Words...for it is their nature to change."
