Dream-e-scape is an interactive projection art installation about lucid dreams, created by filmmaker Laia Cabrera and multimedia artist Isabelle Duverger, in collaboration with interactive designer Aniol Saurina Masó and composer and instrumentalist Nana Simopoulos.
《夢景觀》是一個關於清醒造夢的互動投映藝術裝置,由電影人萊亞‧卡布蕾拉、多媒體藝術家伊莎貝拉‧杜維格、互動設計師安諾爾‧索里納‧馬索、作曲家及樂手娜娜‧西莫普格斯共同創作。

Dream-e-scape is an interactive projection art installation about lucid dreams, created by filmmaker Laia Cabrera and multimedia artist Isabelle Duverger, in collaboration with interactive designer Aniol Saurina Masó and composer and instrumentalist Nana Simopoulos.

The piece is an immersive and interactive 360º installation about the mind and the search for awareness in which the public experiences a sensory voyage that captures the surreal nature of dreams, where the line is blurred between the physical and the digital world, between the real and the imaginary.

Dream-e-scape is based on the state of sleep, an imaginary journey one can experience with the eyes wide open. The piece explores the concept of Lucid Dream, the state in which we are asleep and become aware we are dreaming, and the ability we have to control the dreams, the agency we have over our thoughts and desires. We are testing reality, are we awake?

We wanted to play with the surreal nature of dreams and explore concepts and ideas related to our notion of a digital self in a collective environment. Being awake, conscious… agency. The installation uses the language of escape rooms to explore the dreamworld, opening doors to mirrored landscapes, waterfalls, a Daliesque world or hidden pathways, creating connection between allegories of tales, micro and macro, nature, body, mind and universe, all connected by chance and sometimes astonishing clarity. Original music uses textures, pads, pulses and drum rhythms to move the audience through the space and at times influence the music by their physical movement.

Dream-e-escape invites the audience to actively enter the heart of the piece creating and choosing dreamlands that unfold across a series of immersive interactive scenarios, capturing the surreal nature of dreams and giving the audience agency.

《夢景觀》是一個關於清醒造夢的互動投映藝術裝置,由電影人萊亞‧卡布蕾拉、多媒體藝術家伊莎貝拉‧杜維格、互動設計師安諾爾‧索里納‧馬索、作曲家及樂手娜娜‧西莫普格斯共同創作。

這件沉浸式互動作品是一場關於心靈以及尋找意識之旅,觀眾在當中感受細節,捕捉夢中的超現實景觀,在那裡現世與數碼世界、真實與想像之間的界限通通都是模糊的。

《夢景觀》以睡眠狀態出發,但人們可以睜開眼經歷。作品探討「清醒造夢」的概念,是一種當人們在睡眠中知道自己造夢的狀態,以及人們控制夢的能力、超越人們的思想與慾望。我們在測試現實,我們是真的清醒嗎?

藝術團隊想要試試夢的超現實本質,想探討人們在集體環境中的數位自我概念以及其想法,尤其在人們清醒以及有意識的狀態下。作品運用了逃生室的語言去探索夢境, 打開通往鏡像景觀、瀑布、達里藝術風格的世界又或且秘道,在寓言故事、微觀宏觀、自然、身體與宇宙之間創造關係,一切全然偶然巧合。而原創音樂使用了不同的節奏樂感去牽引觀眾,而觀眾在空間內的動作都會同時影響著音樂。

《夢景觀》邀請觀眾主動投入作品中心,在互動場景中追夢、捕捉夢,遊走在超現實之中。
