The Oneironauts
This is my Dream Journal. These writings draw predominantly from a notebook which sleeps under my pillow- the philosophy is that my dreams will in fact leak through the pillow and onto the pages of the notebook. I intend to produce a progression of writings which not only document my dreams, but rather bring them to life...
The process is, most simply; the input of dreams via dream journal - and the eventual output of progressive surrealism via narrative form...
The art of dream exploration has become a somewhat forgotten practice. Even more so, the philosophy of dreams is a subject beyond the grasp of our waking consciousness. Oneironauts are seeking to rediscover this forgotten realm, to recover lost relics of wisdom which lay hidden amongst the catacombs of the phantasmagorical. My devotion is not only the exploration of these realms- but the documentation of my explorative expeditions within them, I endeavor to unmask the nature of dream philosophy and exploration, and thus retrieve these fantastical artifacts of the subconscious planes.
These documents are not solely from my own perspective. Although they are in fact my dreams- various other oneironauts are exploring these realms as well. Within my dreams I may take the perspective of myself or another oneironaut (someone besides myself), other times I will be merely observing the events surrounding these characters- without any physical form of my own. The writings shift from third and first person perspectives to reflect this. (Where by third person represents these more observant moments of dreams)
I created this thread predominantly as a means of recording my dreams for my own benefit- though the forum is of course a shared space, so please feel free to ask any questions if something is in need of clarification or elaboration.
