Within the Dream
May 5, 1999
Within The Dream examines the technological and historical legacy passed on to “Gen Xer’s”. What generation has ever inherited their parents and grandparents history, not in faded newspapers, novels, history books, and paintings, but rather in media footage, movies, and soundscapes, frozen yet faded, all magnetized, digitized, and pre-package for your consumption?
What does it mean to inherit such bounty, such responsibility? What relevance, if any, do these “artifacts” from the last half of the twentieth century have on a new generation Within the Dream examines the difficulties of two siblings struggling to answer these very questions?
