Depending on the song and the character, Ms. O'Sullivan's voice varied from dark and smoky to feral, and her excellent musicians (Feargal Murray on keyboards, Andrew Zinsmeister on guitar, and Dan Weiner on drums) created settings that varied from a dreamlike, piano-based cabaret with a Weimar flavor to full-scale rock.
Haney's clip unfurls like a rousing high, all smiles and washed out, kaleidoscopic pastel colors, and it feels like a nod to the work of French director Stéphane Sednaoui, whose work on U2's "Mysterious Ways" and the Red Hot Chili Peppers' "Give It Away" clips carried the same druggy, dreamlike quality.

In the next room, where car seats and garden chairs seem to melt into sand, they'll watch a nearly half-hour video of a dreamlike road trip from the suburbs of Paris to Venice, by car, horse and boat, featuring a naked bicyclist, a brass marching band and a magician who levitates furniture.
Your intuition, it will lead you in the right direction To form DeepStack's so-called intuition, Bowling and his team ran millions of test games against the AI. Those simulations fed into a digital brain, called a "neural network," which has been described in the detection of skin cancer and even Google's dreamlike artwork.
At this point, a clear visual vocabulary emerges: lap dogs, melting cutlery, lit cigarettes, and cuts of meat form a recurring motif of dreamlike symbolism, in landscapes inhabited by circus folk, mythical creatures (Leda, of swan fame, is a regular), solemn children, and round-faced, nude, frankly unapologetic women who gaze directly at the viewer.
There was Debra Granik's emotionally and visually expansive direction of Leave No Trace, Lynne Ramsay's brutal and dreamlike direction of You Were Never Really Here, Tamara Jenkins' emotionally precise and unsparing direction of Private Life, Karyn Kusama's mercilessly tense and forbidding direction of Destroyer, and Chloé Zhao's gorgeous and achingly felt direction of The Rider.
These range from "El regreso de un ratón de bibliotecas" (1983), a dreamlike tour of Chile's unstable political history (Ruiz fled Chile after the 1973 coup against Salvador Allende), to 2007's "Le Don," which features an anthropologist and her blind uncle sitting in a movie theater as images float past them on the screen.
More on In Sight: Capturing the fading past of Tennessee's old-time country music 'A Familiar Place' is a dreamlike photographic love letter to Stockholm Over six years and 100,000 miles, this photographer sought out America's 'humor, pathos and humanity' SuperFan badge holders consistently post smart, timely comments about Washington area sports and teams.
Still, it was a world away from the sublime, cosmopolitan precincts where Skudin was now making his name, and the coexistence of the local and the global in the person handing out dust masks and leading our group to flood-damaged houses was strange and dreamlike, like Long Beach itself in the aftermath of Sandy.
To my mind, the best long takes are either events that occur in real time (and thus replicate the way our brains can home in on a laser-focused point in stressful situations) or dreamlike situations (where they replicate the way dreams can feel like unending collections of stuff, without a break in the rhythm).
Greta, currently in theaters, is the latest one, casting Huppert as a lonely widow who scatters purses on the subway in hopes of luring a good Samaritan to her Brooklyn backhouse to keep her company — a dark fairy tale set in a New York that looks all the more dreamlike for clearly being shot in Toronto.
There is a touching quality to that moment, and it suggests that if the show had leaned into that kind of acknowledged fantasy more — not using a literal dream to fill in information gaps, but to emphasize the dreamlike qualities of the story itself — it might have better matched a story for which so much is unknown.
"It's a story that Moebius spent decades on, and you can see an evolution as he first focuses on a 'clean line' style—the style employed by such creators as Hergé (Tintin)—to a more involved, intricate style that seems to get more controlled and complicated as the story gets more surreal and dreamlike," Simon says.
It's doubtful the project, called Woodcutters From Fiery Ships—which may or may not have been related to the tar-faced Woodsmen of Fire Walk With Me and 2017's revival—ever had a realistic shot at going anywhere, if Lynch's own dreamlike description of an experience that could "bend back upon itself" is any indication.
"Ten years ago, museums were not looking at us at all," says Aparajita Jain, who directs Delhi's renowned Nature Morte gallery and works with many increasingly prominent South Asian artists, including Benitha Perciyal, Reena Saini Kallat and Gauri Gill, whose dreamlike photographs exploring indigenous communities and social class were on display at MoMA PS1 this summer.
In the film's second half, when Bob and Eve are ducking through thick vegetation and setting clever traps for their pursuer, the combination of the expensive jungle sets and state-of-the-art practical effects — including fog machines, rear-projection, subjective camera work, and gorgeously elaborate matte paintings — gives The Most Dangerous Game a dreamlike quality.
At E3, independent game developers also showcased half a dozen virtual-reality titles, such as Virtual Virtual Reality, an absurdist black comedy from the studio Tender Claws that plays with ideas of tourism, travel and authority; and SnowVR, a dreamlike game made by two Tehran-born artists who were unable to attend E3 because of travel restrictions.
It seems to be connected to the Red Room and the Black Lodge, by the same strange, dreamlike logic that connected all the spaces Cooper traveled between in Parts 1 and 2 — and, as became clear this week as Dark Cooper and the Woodsman faded in and out between a hallway and a forest, it's inextricably linked to the woods of Twin Peaks.
Some of his earliest solo recordings, like his dreamlike 2013 Sinking Down cassette or the two songs he contributed to the ambitious, Magnetic Fields-parodying 420 Love Songs compilation—which featured (Sandy) Alex G, Sam Ray's projects Ricky Eat Acid and Teen Suicide, and many more—were eccentric and intimate bedroom recorded sketches, showcasing an artist constantly experimenting and tweaking his voice.
From Nan Goldin's intimate yet uncompromising self-portrait in bed, to Anna Gaskell's dreamlike scenarios played out by young girls, via Nikki S. Lee's recreations of American subcultures, or Shirin Neshat's complexly meaningful hand portraits, the show includes photography and video, going from 1970s feminist art to Marina Abramović's performance art—and it definitely feels like it should be bigger, incidentally.
Among his many meditations on the technology, he wrote: [T]he shutting out of surrounding objects, and the concentration of the whole attention, which is a consequence of this, produce a dreamlike exaltation of the faculties, a kind of clairvoyance, in which we seem to leave the body behind us and sail away into one strange scene after another, like disembodied spirits.
The capacity for simulated, dreamlike virtual worlds created on game engines like Unreal or animation software like Cinema 4D is taken to something of an extreme in the new music video for The Present's jungle and Burial-influenced track "Love With U." In it, viewers descend into a subterranean black-and-white labyrinth, encountering surreal interiors and objects before seemingly teleporting to the next aspect of the virtual maze.
The show does contain some of the elements we've come to associate with the topic: blood and nudity, notably in Ana Mendieta's reenacted "Rape Scene" (1973); and testimony, as in the text accompanying Jennifer Karady's dreamlike photograph of a female soldier who was raped in the United States military and Bang Geul Han's mesmerizing animation of survivors' tweets after the release of the infamous Donald Trump "Access Hollywood" tape.
I admit that it came as a shock of relief and an immense emotional pleasure when, in the much-discussed ending of "Once Upon a Time … in Hollywood," Tarantino's version of the story unexpectedly veered away into some other, dreamlike, better world, where the monsters inadvertently passed through the wrong door and met the end they deserved — torn to shreds, bludgeoned to a pulp, burned to a cinder.

I'm especially susceptible to holiday specials — "The Snowman," from the BBC ("The whole world seemed to be held in a dreamlike stillness") is the worst, but I cry at "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," too, and not only because I admire the pluck of Hermey the Elf, who came out as a dentist during a time when very few Claymation figures had the courage to live their lives authentically.
I chose that particular insignificant week at random, although it turned out to be a good choice, highlighted as it was by an unwatchable Sunday Night Football game that ended in a 6-6 tie and a game in London between the Giants and Rams that transcended the usual dreamlike shittiness of those games to attain a state of pure Sinus Headache; the Cleveland Browns used their sixth quarterback of the season that week.
In the penultimate section, Oliver's obsessive musings on Elio at the party, a result of the conviction that his life stopped when he left Elio and that nothing truly worthwhile has happened since, beggared the belief of this reader, usually happy to inhabit a surreal, dreamlike mood but unsettled by a man who feels he's wasted the last 20 years of his life yet hasn't done a thing about it except whimper into the ether.
However, the curators have treated the work fittingly: rather than overcompensating for her delayed recognition in the art world or associating her entirely with the poveristi, they have taken the dreamlike, semi-unconscious state of the work — which reaches back into Italian art history, grapples with the concerns of her day, and looks towards the future — and gently placed it in an exhibition that that is as captivating and shrewd as the artist's tiny scarpetta.
Klay Thompson scores 60 points in three quarters and it feels somehow normal, like a thing that might happen on any given night for the rest of the season or forever; Draymond Green and Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant orchestrate some astonishing futuristic moment of synthesis and the dreamlike weirdness of seeing all these stars working in concert is already sublimated to the clock that is already ticking down towards the moment when they'll do it again.
Seen anew, much of its imagery is surreally beautiful: the vast plated underside of an armored starship sliding on and on forever overhead; the dreamlike tableau, seen through a scrim of smoke and framed by concentric portals, of a girl shrouded in white furtively genuflecting to a robot; a golden android waving for help in a desert by the skeleton of a dinosaur; a convoy of space fighters opening their split wings in sequence, like poison flowers blossoming.
Though never overtly critical, Gomes notes the transformation of his hometown into an extreme example of late stage capitalism under the Bolsonaro government, where even the endless production of denim only ensures residents have enough to enjoy Carnaval for a week Perhaps the most hypnotic of the films featured in the series is Miguel Hilari's Compañía (2019), a film built on the premise of a journey from the city to a small village, with dreamlike images and earthly soundscapes commanding the screen.
The whole convenience store sequence is fantastic at hitting that exact note of dreamlike horror at which Lynch excels: the way Cooper and the Woodsman fade in and out of sight as they walk up the stairs, the way the hallway gives way to the woods and then reestablishes itself, the light flickering over Cooper's face as though at any moment he will somehow transform himself — it's all the kind of nightmarish imagery that made the first Twin Peaks so unforgettable.
When people imagine flying they imagine it as a magical, dreamlike experience, and it frequently is — but at the same time, learning to fly can sometimes be more Type II fun than Type I. (I suspect that this, more than the admittedly high cost, is why a lot of student pilots peter out and never finish their certification.) Whatever the price point, the ICON people deserve kudos for building an aircraft which makes flying reliably far more the latter than the former.
