THE WORLD DREAM BANK: TIMELINE: 1987

Dreams listed by date:
1987

For me this was the year I was forced into scientific heresy. A vivid predictive dream, Watercats rubbed my nose in the fact that time isn't linear.
I also started doing contact improv in San Francisco, a wild scene my dreams turned into The Dragon Banners. I got hooked on digital art, using an Amiga. Crash-prone and usually just 16 colors, but how luxurious after the stark black-and-white of early Macs! Duck, Queen Cobra, Thea, and Waria are all examples: prehistoric digital art!
