The Finale: The science of sleep

So we did take the idea further. We did not end up making a video or a photomontage instead we decided to make it an interactive installation where people would come and look at files that represent various experiences that we have been through and leave a dream behind. The responses varied immensely, from people writing concept notes, to things that remind them of their own dream and a few that just left me dreams. It excited me every time someone got excited about leaving behind a dream.
This is what the concept note read:
You are entering my mind while I am asleep. I am making you do what
scientists believe happens to us while we sleep. I am making you
create my dreams, taking moments from my recent experiences toexperiences from my past. I need you to look through the files in mybrains and leave me a dream. A nightmare, a message or just another
random dream.

These are some of the images:





These are some images of what other people had left me.









I am hoping to come up with an idea as to what to do with these dreams created by other people, once I discuss it with my URI partner I shall upload those details as well.
