Programme
note
Morpheus in the Greek
mythology is the most
powerful of the Oneroi,
the gods of dreams. He is
the one who sends us our
dreams and he may appear
to us within the dreams
in disguise.
Analogous to the logic
of dreams, in
Morpheus
everything is interwoven,
as chains of associations
appear to logically lead
us from one line of
thought to another.
Everything seems
strangelyfamiliar. But
the logic is treacherous
and we already feel, it
may only be valid within
the dream. Nothing that
appears similar is
actually ever really the
same.
Half
awakening, we struggle to
hold on to a vanishing
world we felt we were on
the verge of
understanding, but which
we already know will
eventually escape us when
we fully awake.
Everything remains a
mystery until the
end.
The seven
movements/dreamscapes
are:
- Vortex
- Trees and Walls
- Escher (Toccata)
- Crystal
- Into
the Cloud
- Non-Euclid
- Arctica
