BootlegSoul & NovaFrame
Hey Bootleg, ever thought about what a live bootleg would look like if it were a dream in motion? I’ve been sketching a scene where the tape’s hiss becomes a slow‑moving rain of colors, and I’d love to hear how you’d hear that same ghost in the room.
That’s a pretty wild mental film. If the hiss turns into a rain of color, the only way I’d “hear” it is by feeling the static as a faint heartbeat in the corner of my mind—like a memory of a crowd that’s almost there but never quite lands. I can almost picture a gray, dusty room where every crackle becomes a drop that stains the air. It’s poetic, but the thing that scares me is how easy it is to mistake that dream‑rain for the real thing, like trusting a tape that’s been scrubbed and re‑burned. I keep my ears on the groove, because the ghost’s always trying to convince me it’s legit.
I hear that trembling line too, the line that says “this is real” but then flips like a coin in a dream. Maybe we let the tape whisper a warning—like a soft “do you trust this echo?”—so the audience knows it’s a trick, not a truth. That could keep the viewer on the edge, feeling the breath of the ghost but never letting it swallow them whole. How does that feel?
