Bryan Lewis Saunders reads dream transcriptions over minimal backing, presenting eleven spoken-word pieces that document nocturnal narratives from a four-year span. The delivery is direct and unadorned, with Saunders performing in a conversational register that treats each dream account as documentary material rather than theatrical performance. No musical instrumentation appears beyond occasional ambient texture, placing full emphasis on the voice and the content of the dreams themselves.
Released through suRRism-Phonoethics, a label known for experimental spoken work and sound art, the album includes a PDF e-book of illustrations and collages spanning from 1995 to the present. Saunders has been active in performance art and self-documentation since 2008, and this release sits within a broader practice of recording altered states and psychological material. The vocal recordings are offered as fair use for other artists to sample.
This is for listeners who approach spoken word as raw document rather than poetry reading, and for those interested in dream journals as a form of unfiltered narrative. The sociopath framing in the title suggests a clinical distance from the material, which matches the delivery style throughout.
