Abstract

The article focuses on Bieke Depoorter's book, *Blinked Myself Awake*, which intertwines memoir and photography to explore themes of astronomy, stargazing, and the relationship between photography and objectivity. Through her encounters with individuals like Henk, who finds solace in observing the cosmos, Depoorter emphasizes the importance of looking up and reflecting inward. The work highlights her fascination with the shared human experience of gazing at celestial bodies, illustrating how these moments connect people across time and space. Ultimately, the book serves as a reminder of the wonder that can be found in observing the universe, contrasting with the modern tendency to focus on screens. [Extracted from the article]
