A Conspiracy Theory
If life is but a dream, to what do we awake?
The central premise of Dreamstate: A Conspiracy Theory, is the admittedly ridiculous but incontrovertibly true assertion that the universe does not exist.
This is something you can understand conceptually, like watching a documentary about Antarctica, or experientially, like moving to Antarctica.
There’s also a related phenomenon where you fall asleep watching the documentary and wake up in the frozen wasteland. That’s gotta be weird, but the truth is that you’re asleep in a barren wasteland dreaming that you’re not, so that’s where waking up gets you.
