14. ASSIGNMENT 1
Dream Diary

21. Throughout the semester you
will keep a dream journal.
You may use any medium to
record your dreams, though
it must be contained in some
sort of chronological order.
The journal will be assessed
on its depth of detail and
expression. The dream journal
will trigger other ideas and
processes in your work. It
should come naturally.

26. keep a pencil and pad by
your bed and every morning
when you wake up, record
everything you can.
it should get more vivid as the
semester progresses.
I encourage you to use
different mediums and
techniques to explore and
express your dreams. Try and
illustrate the dreams after
absorbing and writing them
down.

28. 1
Make tool/object
which represents
the divide between
wakefullness and sleep,
or the conscious and
unconscious. Try and link
it to an existing notion of
the mind/dreams.
(Freud, Jung, Perl, Adler,
Hall, Revonusuo)

the Bed introductory

31. 3
Find 4-5 articles
which could seed
impacts on sleep
and dreaming in the
future. These could
be direct or indirect
scientific papers,
news stories, videos
etc, but must have an
element of truth or
research.
