THIS FRIDAY: Dream Tech with Laurie Polisky

Peek at this work in progress from a Denver-based documentarian, all about the emerging science of reading dreams

Just a friendly reminder that our last event of 2025 is happening this Friday at the Denver Press Club! Join us this Friday for a discussion with Laurie Polisky about her work in progress Under the Dream. The podcast examines dream tech, tools that seek to probe the mind during the dream state. You won’t want to miss our dreamiest event yet!

Laurie is an award-winning filmmaker, editor, composer and podcaster. While she's simultaneously directing and producing her independent projects, she’s currently editing a feature for the Oscar-winning teams behind NAVALNY and EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE. Before this, she produced and scored DEAR ALANA (2023), a #1 Apple Podcast and 4x nominee and winner at the 2024 Ambie awards.

Josh Mattison and Laurie will discuss the parallels between documentary filmmaking and indie podcasting, and play exclusive clips from a never-before-heard podcast in development about the future stakes of what we fondly call reality.

What happens when technology enters our dreaming minds? Neurotech that can influence and even record our dreams could be the next space race. Two filmmaker-scientist hosts explore topics like lucid dreaming, PTSD nightmares, dream hacking, virtual reality, memory, creativity, meditation, and indigenous dreamwork. Featuring expert interviews, immersive sci-fi stories, and dream experiments that you can try at home. Pinch yourself as we dive deep to discover the world of dream tech, all while wondering – is it cool, or is it creepy?
