The DreamMachine is described as a ‘meditative rotating light sculpture’. The text on the gallery wall suggests looking at it with eyes closed.

Gysin is also quoted: “The Dream Machine may bring about a change of consciousness in as much as it throws back the limits of the visible world and may, indeed, prove there are no limits.”

Brion Gysin was a poet and artist and worked with William S Burroughs and other beat poets

Gysin is famous for inventing Cut ups

“Writing is fifty years behind painting. I propose to apply the painter’s techniques to writing; things as simple and immediate as collage or montage. Cut right through the pages of any book or newspaper lengthwise, for example, and shuffle the columns of text. Put them together at hazard and read the newly constituted message. Do it for yourself. Use any system which suggests itself to you. Take your own words or the words said to be ‘the very own words’ of anyone else living or dead. You’ll soon see that words don’t belong to anyone.”

 I Am that I Am is a short film  that makes me stop paying attention to what I am doing and lose myself in the idea that:-  ‘Nothing is true and everything is permitted.’
