Dream Interpretation / Reflection of Life

To understand Dreams - Pamela Ball

If the dreamer can understand himself, he can understand the world in which he lives.

If he understands the world he lives in and the influence it can have on him, then he can accept responsibility for that world.

If he acknowledges responsibility for the effect he has on his waking world, he must explore his own hidden world, he can gain access to universal wisdom.

If he uses universal wisdom, he creates a better future. If he creates a better future he can live in the world and also be of it. He lives both a successful interior and exterior life.

Dream reflection..

Often my work reflects my ideal world.

Allot of my work is plainly fun. The fractal zooms, video feedback, repetitive patterns and symmetrical objects and colours. Symmetrical and repetitive effects like mirroring and strobe help the composition of my ideas form a hypnotic and dream like sequence.

My aim is to create a trance zone inside the video. To grasp the viewer and present my dreams to him. In live composition of my work, I start to play with my images and put forward a hypnotic sequence to the rhythm I feel inside myself at that time. As I hear the music and stare at the images and effects I am controlling, I aim to pass on the trance mind state that I begin to feel through the video. The composition that gets created is rarely thought through at all. From practice I see what looks good together and what doesn't, although the best trancey compositions I have created are a result from pure experimentation at times when I simply concentrate on a kind of internal rhythm.
