Dream Gate · Dream Journal

A very light companion that stays in the background while you write your dream: a stream flowing in the distance and a warm, low drone beneath. No melody and no rhythm; it doesn't draw your attention. A sound environment with no claim of any effect.

20 minNo headphones neededEvidence level S: Soundscape, no claim

The same recipe with another seed: the raindrops, the order of the birds or the path of the chords change; the rules and evidence level stay the same.
