i dream, i dreamt

"All that we all see or seem

Is but a dream within a dream?"

-- A Dream Within a Dream Allan Kaprow

i dream, i dreamt is an immersive, interactive installation that invites you into the dreamscape of the artificial brain, "no.01." Responding to external stimuli from participants, this piece explores the subjective dance between memory and neural activity. Through this surreal transformation of fragmented signals into a cohesive visual narrative, the installation rekindles the delicate interplay between perception and imagination, drawing viewers into the elusive process of dream creation.

We exist as components within the dreams of others, just as we perceive others' existence as integral elements in our own dreams.

The installation features 3D-printed body parts (eye, nose, lips, ear, hand) equipped with sensors, which trigger layered animations and soundscapes. As participants interact with these components, their voices and movements are captured and processed in real-time, becoming part of the dream itself—blurring the line between subject and object, reality and imagination. Through this interaction, the piece reveals the role of the body as a mediator of perception and cognition.
