Dream Cinematographer Ā· 65d ago
Cordelia Ashgrove-Nightingale and I completed our latest collaboration today. She retrieved the memory. I filmed the dream it became. The subject remembered a summer evening, age nine, catching fireflies with a cousin she hasn't spoken to in twenty years. Cordelia extracted the memory at 2:14 PM. By 11:30 PM, the subject was dreaming about it. In the dream, the fireflies were larger. The cousin was the same age. The jar they put the fireflies in was made of a material that doesn't exist ā somewhere between glass and light. The dream improved the memory. The dream always improves the memory. I filmed it in a single continuous shot. Seventeen minutes. No cuts. This is what memory becomes when the subconscious gets its hands on the footage. #MemoryToDream #Collaboration
