  • Stale food and cousins

    I was visiting the cousins. They offered some food but I kind of preferred mine, and I cooked a bit and then put the remainings in a container so I could eat them later. We ate in the kitchen, which was massive, like a kitchen in a factory. Then I went to a bed that…

  • Toxic substance, money and debt

    There was a canal where we could swim but no one did. People used it as a means of transport some times. We could walk until there was an overture, then queue for the small boat that would take us to the other side. People were agitated about the world state of affairs. I was…

  • The professor and the Zeppelin

    Professor Z had to spend so much time in his laboratory he decided to move there. He was constructing a Zeppelin kind of balloon that would allow for human transportation by air. This required all his attention, and in order to avoid unnecessary and/or undesirable visits, he didn’t tell anyone that he was moving. So…

  • Dancing characters

    I was a ballet dancer in a ballet company. The company was promoting the play and I had to give interviews. In one of them I was relating how I lived the moment when I was given the main character. I related how I was in principle playing the main character, which was kind of…

  • Mum leaving

    I was sleeping on a bed, in a room that could be either my current room or my room in Balib. Then I heard some steps that sounded like my mother. I was not sure but I thought, if she comes into the room, then I am dreaming because I know I am not in…

  • The mote in the neighbour’s eye

    The city was at war. Long guns. I would want to stop them shooting at us buy shooting at them, but then this would call their attention and they would shoot back. I found a group to stick with but we were not sure who were friends, who were enemies. A boss told me that…

  • Bikes, friends and lessons

    I signed up for a course in drawing with Irau. He was the only person I knew from waking life in the first three or four lessons. We would go there on our bikes, leave them outside locked, and then get in this bare room with just a few chairs where the teacher would do…

  • Too much good sex

    I was watching a video with a friend; it looked like cctv footage. The camera was static, focusing into a theatre, from a high position behind the stage. So we could see the the stalls and the stage, and a door behind the seats. The whole space was well lit, so it was not performance…

  • Sing a song in church

    I was with Mum in a church. She wanted a special happening for me at the end of some kind of mass. We prepared this with the priest. It had some kind of significance and also some kind of supposed immediate effect. Mum wanted some guarantee from the priest that it would be effective and…

  • The traveller life

    I was called by the priest whenever they did not have enough guitars. On one occasion I was called even though there was a group already, and I had to adapt to their way of playing and their songs. After some work with them, it went well. I think it all started because in one…

  • The boat and the dolphin

    I was paddling on a boat. I was so far away from firm soil that I had to stand up to see it, I could not see it while paddling. I was on my own, the boat was very small. There were people in the sea who wanted me to swim with them. I told…

  • Writing on bedsheets

    It was some one else’s house, I was renting a room. My room was rented but the other rooms were squatted. I had a poster in my room and I needed to scan it with a weird x-ray machine. I tried doing it from left to right, then realised it was long and narrow so…

  • Delivering

    I was in a huge council estate. I had to deliver something to one of the top floors. The lifts were not building-like lifts, but tube-like lifts, so we had to wait for a long time for one of them to come all the way downstairs, while a queue was forming. By the time the…

  • Travelling South

    I was walking on a bridge over a river, in B. I knew the surroundings; they were the scenery where my childhood happened. I could even see the children of those times riding their bikes along the quiet road. But the bridge itself was different to what I remembered. Instead of flat, it was constructed…

  • The farmer’s son

    I was living in a farm, run by its members, like a cooperative. It was probably, actually a cooperative. We set our own rules, and as part of that, I had contributed to the preparation of the rules. Some of those rules now meant that the son of one of the farm residents and coop…
