Time Traveling through Mush


I'm in a courtyard, that is in the middle of someone's Frank Lloyd Wright looking home. Courtyard is old and ruined, lots of bricks laying around, old dead grass and dirt. In the middle of this is a large steam copper looking machine. About 8 feet long, 6 feet high. Wet, steaming and making a ton of machine noises.

There are about 6 or 7 people in their 20's standing in a group, watching this machine. In front of them is a tall man with a long purple button coat on, and a purple hat, explaining how this machine works.

He explains how this is a new device he created where people can travel through their subconscious into other time. As people are asking question, he is trying to simplify the answers by saying "There's no special tool or machine that is doing this - just a lot of necessary stimulant to the brain" and explains how dirt; being surrounded by earth, is the best way.

He opens the huge hatch on the top, and up comes a man that looks like Tom Hanks, and he is gasping for air. He has wires and electrodes all around his head, and throughout this body. He is deeply covered in a mushy dirt. The tall man pushes him back down into the mush, and says he needs to let him continue "through his journey". How the guy is breathing in there, I don't know.

But he lies back down, and on a monitor outside the steam engine machine is a bunch of electric lines pulsating around in circles, moving forward, as if the monitor itself is going through time with him. The man continues to explain how the brain is the key.

As the day turns into night, people are sleeping on the ground, whispering to each other, talking about this whole thing. The machine is still going. One guy says "this is nuts, I want to see him" so he starts to open the hatch and everyone else is going "wait, dont open it". So he opens it, looks at the guy still in the dirt, alive, wires all around him, breathing heavily. He watches him for a moment and then pokes him. No response. He looks around the tank and sees a clear liquid in a tube, sitting along side one of the monitors. He takes it and shuts the tank back up. He walks over to a part of courtyard, and everyone tells him to put it back. He opens the tube and thinks that if he drinks it, he'll be able to go through time. So he drinks it.

The tall man suddenly arrives and looks at him, as the guy with the tube falls to the ground and start shivering all over. He sighs and says "ok, we need to get him into the tank. someone help me" and then the rest of the people start to help him get the guy ready.

That was it~
