Check out this actual, physical, hyperlinked book and read the article on WebUrbanist about hyperlinking and dreaming. Here’s a quote to whet your appetite:
Try to describe a recent dream to someone and the details are likely to dissolve into absolute nonsense. Dreams themselves are ephemeral, fleeting and altogether mysterious. But trying to figure out the connections between different events in the dream and certain components of reality can prove even more confusing than the dreams themselves. This incredible project perfectly embodies the beautiful confusion that is the dreaming mind.
I’ve been having a lot of strange dreams recently and this way of thinking about them really appeals. I wonder what would happen if my brainwaves were tied up to a knitting machine overnight?
This also reminds me of a great Brazilian Portuguese poem called O Fino, or something, I can’t remember or find it.. but it’s about how we are connected to everyone we’ve ever known via a tiny thread of invisible silk. That’s a lot of thread entwined around the world.
