Escaped Energy

 had this weird dream that I was back in high school, may be not back in 2007, but my present self there. And we sat in an auditorium that had just been recently built.  The Flaming Lips were coming and I had never been more excited in my life.  No one knew who they were but me.
When I walked into the room, a video was playing about a woman who lost her soul for the sense of power.  And when the deal was made she transformed into a hideous gargoyle. The video shown she had a lot of power, but she thought if she was seen as ugly it wasn’t worth it. So she hid in shrouds for the rest of her life and never used her powers.
Then my old friend Sean came in. I told him that he was late, like usual. He sat next to me and said something important, but Wayne Coyne stepped in and looked around. He immediately made eye contact with me and we started to talk.
He asked if this was the right place. I told him it was. I also told him how much of a fan I was. He then showed me a video in my brain(That’s how dreams work sometimes) of a hospital that starts out clean, has someone living in it, then no one takes care of it. It gets dirty after a while, and then odd little things start popping up in the room. Like an odd unopened stack of tissues, and then flashes into the future showing that the plastic wrap was, flowers were still dead„ there was no one in the hospital bed. He told me he was working on it, but it was abstract video art. Then he walked down the aisle and greeted everyone who was there. A lot of people had left by then, the seats were almost empty.
He put on a metal headband with wires attached to it, and the band started playing. Coming out from an overhead projector was everything that Coyne was imagining at the time, as he played music, and the other two members played along. It was a mix of forests with bright colors, and animals in cartoony rainbows. I’ve never seen anything like it. But it was quick, almost every frame shot was a different set of things going on.  And then I woke up. But the morale of the story is, that was the coolest invention someone could ever come up with, and to use it when the mind clears and focus is driven on what you are playing. It’s perfect.
