Sleep has taken various forms in terms of light, work, sex, morality, sound, body and human understanding. Sleep is also a physiological phenomenon. It refers to various abilities and aspects of the body, which are expressed in rhythms, hormones, fluctuations in electrical activity, changes in the activity of organs and body systems, among other things.

We want your sleep!

We are making an open call on sending us your sleep videos. A selection of these videos will be presented at SLEEP 79 as projections. As an inspiration, there’s a link to Andy Warhol’s iconic “Sleep” from 1964. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaiEM2lUoZg
