There are websites out there that seek to demonstrate the credibility of historical giants.  TV and film characters are either nephilim or meant to symbolize them.  A rock band was inspired by the Sumerian background of their themes.

Noah's name

 

And [Lamech] named him Noah, saying, 'Out of the ground that the LORD has cursed this one shall bring us relief from our work and from the toil of our hands. ~ Genesis 5:29

 

Van Gough, "Siesta" (1889-1890)

aka, "Meridian" or "Rest"

Rabbinic Noah

 

And another on-line prompt about Rabbinic interp of Noah.  

 

Also - a lot of good ideas here: Searched Noah on website devoted to Jewish Texts for Social Justice. 

Cryptozoology and Monsters

 

Monsters are in right now.  They are lightening rods for exploring what it means to be human (website).  Cryptozoologists actually exist, part scientist, part sci-fi artist, they research folkloric characters like bigfoot and 'hidden animals' that is, animals that have not yet been discovered.  And Creationists actually work this into their argument against evolution.  

Dark Void Watcher - video game

 

Watchers Video game trailer.  The trailer ends with the line "enter the void."  There's also "El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron," which is described as a journey through 1 Enoch here.  

Geological Time - flood geology

 

Stephen J. Gould wrote a masterful book about the history of geology, Time's Arrow, Time's Cycle.  Burnett, the 17th century sacred theorist, features prominently.  

Frances Barth invoked Gould in her exhibition called, "Geological Time."  

Noah's Children's stories

 

Noah's hippy brother Neil's Vegetable Ark.

Biblical ends of the world

 

Reflection on Harold Camping's apocalyptic narcicism.

 

Neo-surrealism and Ghostship

 

the artist of this painting describes it as a neosurrealist interepretation of the Noah's ark and the flood.  

Sacred Theory

 

Burnett's 1681 book, Telluris, Theoria Sacra (Sacred Theory of the Earth) which is a theory focused on Noah's flood and its effects, finds a basis for those events in natural causes.  Stephen J. Gould made it interesting! For more, here, ... 

Anne ProvoostIn the Shadow of the Ark

 

Got mostly terrible reviews on goodreads.com.  But Bill Moyers wesbite, On Faith and Reason, honors the author with a portrait, whose body of work does lpok interesting.  

Salvaging the righteous of the prosperity gospel

 

where do cars go after a flood?

 

Scientific predictions of global flooding and climate change.  Here, ...

Survival in the 1800s

Did Noah's flood happen?  A common question.  Several biblically engaged skeptics answer in the negative.  But belief in the literal account of the Bible persisits...yielding an entire field of faith-based science called Flood geology.   Regardless of the faith supposition, flood geologists trade in evidence for a world-wide flood.  Enter the Creation Museum in Kentucky.  I believe they are soon to open a flood museum nearby.  The museum publishes videos and books to use scientific discourse to defend the credibility of the global flood.  Their output is massive.
