The idea for this project quite literally came from an imagined dream - from that place where we are half awake and half asleep and our minds wander through places we've never seen but that feel real in some indefinite sense. I was stressing out big time about this project and a million other things about life that were tearing my mind apart, and so to relieve the anxiety a bit, I took a nap, hoping that when I woke up I would be better prepared to do some work.

I don't think I managed to fall asleep entirely, but maybe I did. I started imagining the most peaceful place I could think of, trying to put myself anywhere except where I was at that time. It was bliss... a place without war, murder, or envy. Society was simple, without all the rules of class, economy, and finance that burden us today. I also imagined a terrible place.

Suddenly, an idea struck me and I awoke more fully. THIS was what I could make my project about. I was once again writing a form of poetry in my own mind, but this time I had the opportunity to share it. I let my mind adrift again, laying back down, but this time I had several sheets of paper and a pen, and I was scribbling furiously.

I wrote out the entire script before I recorded it. Being a bit personal, this project was a bit risky, but Actlab projects aren't supposed to be ordinary. I especially don't care for listening to the sound of my own voice, but I tolerated it. This project brings to life one of the secret worlds of my imagination and asks everyone who listens to respond by revealing the results of their own imagination. In this way, I hope to open up at least a bit of the "black boxes" of the souls of other individuals.
