Great read! And had me thinking the idea of dreams as something yet to be commodified is also relevant to this year's DREAM SCENARIO. That film is ostensibly about cancel culture but there's definitely a way to read it as being about the flattened cultural consciousness, and by extension dreamscape, of the late-stage capitalist dreamer.
