1:09:00
Like, I've been,
like, flying around.

1:09:03
Uh--
1:09:05
I don't know. It's weird, too,
because it's not like a fixed state.

1:09:09
It's more like this whole
spectrum of awareness.

1:09:11
Like the lucidity wavers.
1:09:13
Like, right now I know
that I'm dreaming, right?

1:09:16
We're, like,
even talking about it.

1:09:18
This is the most in myself and in
my thoughts that I've been so far.

1:09:23
I'm talking
about being in a dream.

1:09:26
But I'm beginning
to think...

1:09:30
that it's something that I don't
really have any precedent for.

1:09:34
It's-- It's totally unique.
1:09:37
The-- The quality
of-- of the environment...

1:09:41
and the information
that I'm receiving.

1:09:44
Like your soap opera,
for example.

1:09:46
That's a really cool idea.
1:09:49
I didn't come up with that.
It's like something outside of myself.

1:09:52
It's like something
transmitted to me externally.

1:09:57
I don't know what this is.
1:09:59
We seem to think we're
so limited by the world...

1:10:02
and-- and the confines,
but we're really just creating them.

1:10:06
And you keep trying
to figure it out,

1:10:08
but it seems like now that you know
that what you’re doing is dreaming,

1:10:12
you can do
whatever you want to.

1:10:14
You're, uh, dreaming,
but you’re awake.

1:10:17
You have, um,
so many options,

1:10:21
and that's
what life is about.

1:10:23
I understand
what you’re saying.

1:10:25
It's up to me.
I'm the dreamer.

1:10:28
It's weird. Like, so much
of the information...

1:10:31
that-- that these people
have been imparting to me--

1:10:34
I don't know. It's got this, like,
really heavy connotation to it.

1:10:39
- Well, how do you feel?
- Well,

1:10:42
Well, sometimes
I feel kind of isolated,

1:10:44
but most of the time,
I feel really connected,

1:10:47
really, like, engaged
in this active process.

1:10:50
Which is kind of weird
because most of the time,

1:10:53
I've just been really passive
and not really responding,

1:10:56
except for now, I guess.
1:10:58
I'm just kind of letting
the information wash over me.
