Summary

About the MACHINE

They begin by getting a suggestion from the audience of an image from a dream someone has actually had, and from there do a montage in which formats will mysteriously emerge and dissipate. Although they don't set out for narrative sometimes one arises; what they're aiming for is more like thematic unity and subliminal throughline.
