About this episode

Why do we dream? Where do we go when we are dreaming?
How is the mind affected by the dream state when we are awake?
How do you know if you are awake right now?
What is the time in our dreams? How does dreamtime influence waking life?

In this week's episode of Moon Apothecary Radio, I invite my new Armenian correspondent, ASonic, on the show to find answers through the concepts of dream and time in Richard Linklater's film Waking Life (2001). We explore these concepts and how they apply to real life by sharing examples from our past experiences.

Thanks for tuning in
