I was with a group of people at night, around dusk, in a large field. The sun was going down off to the left so we were facing Northeast. The sun had gone behind a huge cloud bank before it had reached the mountain on the horizon, casting a large shadow on the soon to be night sky. There was a man there that made something really amazing happen. There were poker playing cards individually floating horizontally in the sky. They were enormous cards, about the size of a house, but you could only see them in profile. They were flexing and undulating slowly, and every so often you could see the surface of a face card. They were in a sort of grid pattern, covering a vast portion of the sky, but there was also a mist and glowing light surrounding them, creating a very atmospheric effect. Then the cards dissolved, and a huge picture that probably stood 200 feet vertically rose up into the sky. It was a picture of the man, David Sprintler with his labrador retriever who was standing on it’s hind legs with a ball in it’s mouth. The colours of the picture had an iridescent quality to them, and there was also the misty atmospheric haze. Then the picture dissolved. The crowd was astonished that someone could make this happen without projection. It was like a piece of his was creating this scene because he was connected with the sky.

When this was all done, I walked into a large tent as was talking with some people. Ken Mowery walked in and we started chatting about how amazing it was the David was able to make things appear in the air. I commented on how light it had gotten outside because the huge cloud that was obfuscating the sun had gone away casting beautiful rays of a sunrise across the field. Suddenly, I was in a restaurant/cafe with some people and some library books. I’d left the books there and walked out with the people and when I returned, I couldn’t find my books, only someone else’s. A man was assisting me. Then, another guy came in the man called him Hank and I realized that where my books were. I walked up to this big guy named Hank and told him that I’d put my books in his room and started to open his door. The man remarked that I’d put my books in Hank’s room instead of paying him to watch them. I was like, “Oh well.” So was Hank…

Then the dream switched again, and I was with a guy watching an old music video of David Sprintler. He was a bass player, and at least 10 years younger. I wish I could remember the song because it was very animated as he played bass. I mentioned to the guy that I’d just seen David in the field and how much older he was. He remarked that that made him feel old as well because he remembered when this particular video was on TV for the first time. I was then in a kitchen with 3 other people talking about making dinner. I was there but didn’t really know these people. I knew people they knew, who weren’t there, so felt a little out of place.

Players: Me, David Sprintler, Ken Mowery, Man, Hank, guy with video, people in kitchen
Events: In meadow, cards and picture rise in the air, talking with Ken about this and the sunset, in restaurant with library books, locating books, watching music video and talking about David, in kitchen
Symbols: Playing cards, picture with labrador, sunset, library books, bass guitar
Thoughts: David is more than a person who does magic tricks or art, he makes this happen. It’s a transforming experience and I know I want to do that. I’m not sure why he chose the playing cards or picture. It felt very personal to me that he chose a picture of himself. I played music with Ken. The library books, I actually do need to return today. The music video was interesting because Ken is a bass player. The playing was really cool actually. Lots of sliding. It’s also the instrument I played before I played guitar which I just remembered, but I never got really good at it and Ken actually gets gigs and makes a living at it. The kitchen at the end, and I’m really detached.
