Unconscious leftovers from the day, ghosts of the past, prophetic glimpses of things to come, visio- nary imaginings of new worlds. The dream describes a surreal dimension between memory and the future: as a mirror of reality, it alienates the known and makes the unknown comprehensible and narratable. In the age of media hyper-presence and neoliberal productivity, the playful power of dre- ams must be understood as an emancipative form of human reflection. Current experiences of war, pandemics or climate change become collective and individual burdens. Through surreal, dreamlike alienation, psychological resistance can be circumvented and problems can be processed and solved. In Labyrinth, Miller de Nobili take up these mechanisms of the dream world, their spatial, linguistic and temporal illogicality, visually and performatively in order to explore how dance can contribute to the representation and transformation of intercultural, social processes and problems
