DARUMA DOLLS
Late 1994. Nondream digital painting by Chris Wayan
One of Aline Kominsky-Crumb's underground comix shows her in a bar. A guy comes up and asks "Que pasa, muņeca?" (What's happenin', doll?) and I saw her suddenly as a Japanese Daruma doll, or a nested Russian babushka, full of bizarre images, pregnant with underground stories... and...
And I'm just talking about ordinary dreams, not "nested" dreams or dreams within dreams. Maybe you've had one of those--you lead a complete other life, with sleep and dreams (perhaps of this life, perhaps a third life!), waking again to your other life... Some such dreams can last months subjectively. Who then is the real you, Babushka?
