Waking Dream traces the early development of an aesthetic common to photography, film and new media based on montage and reflection or mirroring. The project includes video works with historical imagery sourced from the Internet, animated by live sampling and 3D animation software, as well as analogue and digital prints that reinterpret historical works through the lens of digital media.
