Hi All-
I recently discovered this forum while I was doing research for an art/music project I am working on called 'Hotel Dreamy'. I apologize if this is an inappropriate post or is in the wrong forum, but I thought this community might be interested.
I am a sound artist and I work with spoken human voices primarily in participatory installations. Hotel Dreamy is a piece made up of individual recollections of dreams mixed with a musical composition. More info and an audio sample here:
Hotel Dreamy | Halsey Burgund
Participants can both listen and contribute to the piece using the Hotel Dreamy app for Android and iOS devices (available for free on Google Play and the App Store). I hope to have a web interface available at some point as well, but for now, it's all through smartphones, mainly because you can leave them next to your bed to record when you wake up.
All dreams are immediately assimilated into the piece when recorded and mixed into an evolving stream of dreams that is unique to each listener.
It's a bit like a musical version of a dream journal, but the dreams are in audio, not text, and are from a bunch of different people, intermixed randomly. Participants are entirely anonymous.
I am looking for more dreams from different people as the more participation, the more interesting the piece becomes. So it seems to me that this community may want to participate(!) and might enjoy hearing and sharing dreams in this somewhat different format.
Thank you for allowing the uninitiated like me to join your community and post. I welcome all participation and feedback and I hope to hear some of you in Hotel Dreamy soon!
-Halsey
