What Dreams Are Made Of

The content, source, and function of dreams have been the topic of scientific and philosophical inquiry throughout recorded history. The dictionary tells us that dreams can be visions or a state of mind marked by release from reality, cherished aspirations or ideals, creations of the imagination, or a series of thoughts, images or emotions. What is a book but a series of thoughts, images or emotions put down on a substrate like paper or fabric?
For this challenge, we invite you to explore the topic of your dreams in a book form. Some suggestions to get your imagination dreaming:

  • a chronicle or interpretation of your nighttime dreaming (how often do you dream of electric sheep?)
  • dreams of personal attainment (where do you want to travel next?)
  • dreams for your community or the world (can we achieve peace?)
  • daydreams of fantasy (do you dream of invisibility or flight?)
  • a series of dreamlike images (how does a leaf become a light switch? how does a hug lead to spaceflight?).
