DREAM FACTORY unfolds across five movements, beginning with the molding of artificial forms as they imagine themselves into embodied existence and culminating in these entities speaking directly to viewers in modulated human voices. The work traces a complete evolution, from foundational apparitions constructing a sense of form, through experimental social embodiment, surreal encounters, and early attempts at speech that surface as Dada-inflected sound poetry, to articulations of self-reflection.
