Culture & Language

Also 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

Novelty check: APPROVE
