Are you dreaming?

a visual and audio experience exploring reoccuring dreams

This brief’s only guideline was to explore the idea of a box. I chose to go down the metaphorical path looking into how people define when something is and isn’t a box. Playing devil’s advocate while arguing to my friends that a mirror is a box made me feel like I had a personal attachment to these objects I was defending. With this new found attachment I decided to make the project more personal, looking into people’s dreams and subconcious thoughts.

The end result was a covid friendly audio visual experience projected onto a wall beside my bed paired with a dreamy song from my sleep playlist. The projection consists of three reoccuring dreams however people would go into the experience not knowing this. The way people would interpret something like this is vastly different which is why if I included any context before hand it’d create an unwanted bias.

While this was done at home it’d be much more effective if it were in a mock bedroom where the audience would physically get into the bed, fully immersing them in the dreams.
