The Skin Square, the Pupil Square

The Skin Square, the Pupil Square; Dreams of Scientists
(Deluxe Edition)

This book is an anthology the nighttime dreams of seven scientists. Even though science has unlocked many of the mysteries of the natural world, dreams have been ignored despite the fact that most people, not excepting scientists, experience dreams on a daily basis. Meanwhile, it seems that the dream world has remained as a vast space where people can still protect their personal sphere of life in this age of the Internet. Each story can be read in accordion book form, and also unfolded into a large image that has no concept of time. On the reverse side there are various sleeping animals linked by woven twigs beyond the pages.
