Is Alice in Wonderland really about drugs? 20 August 2012Last updated at 04:40 ET Alice in Wonderland fans have been marking the 150th anniversary of the fateful boat trip that saw the genesis of the children's tale.
But why do so many see adult themes in the story, asks Sophie Robehmed. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland is, on one level at least, the story of a girl who disappears down a rabbit hole to a fantastic place full of bizarre adventures. Charles Dodgson, a mathematician at Christ Church, Oxford, first told his surreal story to the daughters of dean Henry Liddell as they rowed down the Thames.

Michals chose to go his own way even then and so became the first photographer to stage events for the camera, to work in sequences, to place himself in the picture, to make double exposures, and to paint and write on his photographs. The legacy he leaves for younger photographers is immense and it has been too easily forgotten, so when Michals appeared in London for an exhibition at Hamiltons Gallery of his latest project, Questions Without Answers, I took the opportunity to set the record straight.
The Art of Creativity. Has this ever happened to you? You're out for a jog, completely relaxed, your mind a pleasant blank. Then all of a sudden the solution to a problem you've been mulling over for weeks pops into your head. You can't help but wonder why you didn't think of it before. In such moments you've made contact with the creative spirit, that elusive muse of good—and sometimes great—ideas. Yet it is more than an occasional insight. That flash of inspiration is the final moment of a process marked by distinctive stages—the basic steps in creative problem-solving. Surrealist photographers. Also known as Madame d'Ora (1881 - 1963)
