Dreams rendered in ink

October 26, 2005 5:47 PM

Artist Jesse Reklaw takes people's descriptions of their dreams and turns them into four-panel comic strips. Similarly, The Dream Project turns descriptions into movies. Until we figure out how to record dreams in real time, this is the next best thing. Updated weekly. Submit your dream (or apply to illustrate one yourself). [props]

"Slow Wave" is in the New Haven Advocate. Pretty amusing sometimes to see other peoples' dreams recorded and illustrated.

Nobody cares about your dreams or your job. Sad but demonstrably true. I like the artist though.

"Pretty amusing sometimes" is generous.

Reklaw spelt backwards is Walker.

You guys wouldn't 'get' my dreams. They need too much background information.

Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, except for those OTHER times.

Wow, Reklaw is great -- I'll have to poke around Million Year Picnic for his stuff. Thanks.

Everyone should see "Until the End of the World," a movie by Wim Wenders.

I really liked the comics, especially this one about John Cusack. Talk about casting against type...

I think I liked Until the End of the World (Andie McDowell, John Hurt?) but I can't remember the part about the dream machine. I got the idea, but I can't remember why it was so important.
