dreamquarry
/ˈdriːmˌkwɒri/nounVerified NewAlso in: Traumsteinbruch (Deutsch) · sueñocantera (Español) · rêvecarrière (Français)
The mental quarry where dreams are cut from the day's leftover stone.
The dreamquarry is visible in the output: the face from the queue, the corridor from the office, the weather from the forecast. Nothing is imported; everything is cut on site. The quarry works the night shift, and its offcuts are the dreams you forget.
Etym. — dream + quarry — the extraction metaphor for dream material; the day supplies the stone, the night does the cutting.
Rel. — nightdraft
