I hope to read some comments here today regarding "In View of Nothing" and "Untitled 26."
I do not envy you the white-room dreams, because I have enough strange ones of my own, but I am very glad for "In View of Nothing." I wake up from so many of mine knowing there was some complex story where I can only remember scattered images, and I can never reconstruct it; I can only make up some convincing excuse for the way they fit together. This has the same allusive logic as a dream, but it also has an impressive internal consistency, and reminds me of the films I've seen where the imagery is almost as good as a pass into the director's head. In short, it's spectacular.
