The Waiting Room is a soporific limbo preceding the gates to the dream, a site for the suspension of reality and an entrance into the numinous. Here I perform as a mysterious shamanic figure who induces participants into a "dream state" by reciting poems about dreaming, telling bedtime stories, singing lullabies, coming into dialogue with the participants and experimenting with interactive hypnosis practices. One by one, participants are summoned to the wheelchair, where I bless them with personal spells as they slide onto their dream.
