Re:sound #179 The Dreams Show

This week: dreams and dreamers of all kinds - lucid, fictional, public and elusive. Dream Bedby Sean Cole (Studio 360, 2005)Dreams are intensely personal. But since we all dream, might there be an aspect of dreaming that could be communal? Artist Marina Abramovic believes there is, so she created an installation in the Rose Museum in Boston and then invited people to sleep in it.Dreamersby Joe Frank (Unfictional, 2012)The work of Joe Frank is dark, unpredictable and often, hilarious. His story "Dreamers" is more like an M.C Escher drawing than a traditional tale and leaves you questioning the blurry line between dreams and reality. The Lucid Dreamersby Neva Grant (360documentaries, ABC, 2012)How wonderful would sleep be, if we could control our dreams? As it turns out, many people say this is possible, and YouTube is filled with how-to videos. American producer Neva Grant explored this phenomenon of lucid dreaming while living in Australia. Dreamlandby Nate DiMeo (The Memory Palace, 2012)Amusement parks have always been places where the stuff of your wildest dreams can be lived out. So it’s not a surprise that New York’s Coney Island, which once boasted three competing parks, named one of them Dreamland.Re:sound is produced by Katie Mingle Hosted on Acast.
