‘Wading Thru Dreams, 2gether’ is a participatory reading that invites attendees
to rest and reflect on the multifaceted nature of dreams as they flow through
our inner and outer worlds. Set to soft sounds by Soda Plains, the session
combines readings of texts based on ONEIRIC SPACE’s research with guided
meditative inquiries that touch into dream memories and contemplate various
perspectives on how dream life weaves into waking realms.
All participatory activities are optional.
