Existential Mind Meld
The real and the surreal. Existence. Identity. Reality. Human consciousness is just the tip of the iceberg. Do our senses show us all there is truly to perceive? What is real and what is illusory? What lies beyond the veil of human perception? Will we find the true world, will we find a nightmare...or something in between?
