Dream Monitoring...

My dreams and their link to real life...
How the ideas were used in our Artaudian scene?
I had a dream that it was some sort of war and I was running across a battlefield being shot at by people who I couldn’t see. It was an exhausting and never-ending dream, I felt physically tired when I woke up. I think I dreamt this because I went running that day and a dark car followed me for a bit (or I thought it was following me) which freaked me out.
The idea of being attacked by someone you cannot see transcended into our scene because we chose to perform in the dark and have the ‘murder victims’  launching themselves at the audience.
I had another dream in which I had only three days left to live, yet I was not out living life to the full, I just went about my life normally but complaining to everyone I met that I was going to die in three days. I have no clue what significance this had to my real life but I found it an extremely traumatic and emotional dream.
The idea of being about to die but not doing anything about it was used in our scene as the murderer told Kate to come for a walk. Kate knows that she is going to die but doesn’t put up much of a fight. She is resigned in her looming and imminent death!
My last night of waking up at 2am, found me in the middle of a dream in which, a giant orange and black, diamond backed python brakes through a glass wall inside a house and slides towards me down a long table. It was truly very frightening! I am terrified of snakes so I have a feeling after seeing a video of one whilst watching survivor, I had this dream.
The idea of slithering towards people was reflected by the movements of the ‘murder victims’ in our scene. They use their bodies to slink around the audience, on a variety of levels, much like the python in my dream.
