Sanctum

Seem to be remembering more dreams lately.

You feel like you’re close to some dreams you used to have elements of in the past. Expansive spaces, and isolated pockets within.

Always “felt” the idea of a place In the middle of a massive bustling city high in the sky. Giant windows seeming to cover an entire wall with an expensive vista below you. A lot of neon lights. What seems like flying cars. Maybe cyberpunk influences… maybe a reflection of something else.

But this place both is and isn’t a part of the city. It’s right there in the middle of the city, with the sprawling metropolis in front of you, but the expansive apartment it’s self is isolated. Maybe even invisible? To the rest of the city. They have no idea you’re there. And there’s plenty of space. Everything a modern home needs, and more. It’s ‘cozy’ but not small, almost like it’s a safe haven in a sea of chaos. Anything you want, you can order. The world can be on fire outside that window and it would not affect anything inside this place. Pull ice out of Specifically shaped ice trays and put them in glasses of clear, bubbling liquid. Lights below illuminate the bubbles. At least you found something in real life to do that, lolz

You don’t live here, even in your dream. Maybe it’s a place you own, but this is not your home. At least your main home. It’s a refuge. A sanctum. The city has no specific feel of familiarity. It’s almost a stand in for the world of large. And you have one amazing isolated pocket to hide out in with everything you could need.

You aren’t alone. No idea who else is here, but you care for her. You don’t see her but you know she’s there. Thankful to have this pocket of refuge just as you are. It’s familiar and yet not. Almost like it was left for you. But yet it’s yours.

The video was perfect visually but too reliant on the sound of rain and not an ambient sound that soothes from underneath.

So many sounds good fill this role but that’s almost cliché necessity that leads you to Vangelis’ Blade Runner themes.

You’re just visiting this place. Whatever it is. It feels transitory and yet not. So soothing and relaxing though. You’re not a fan of huge cities, so it’s interesting this is so enjoyable.

Seems almost related to some of the dreams you have about roads going up and over and interrupted. Immense indoor hotel lobbies with lots of friendly people.

Let it carry you to sleep.
