要进入「梦幻」境界似乎很简单，只要一颗100瓦的灯泡、一个马达和一个上面雕花的圆筒就行，接下来只要坐在装置前、闭上双眼，不需要任何药物帮助，就能进入梦幻般的世界，这项装置由诗人也是艺术家的Brion Gysin发明，他也深信这能彻底改变人类的意识。 当然，Brion Gysin还有其他信徒也支持他的发明，导演Nik Sheehan也是藉由这个装置带领观眾进入Brion Gysin的生活，领略他的艺术和繁复难解的思绪，以及他和20世纪几位艺术界翘楚之间的友谊，看他如何进入平常不曾进入的意识层面，解放各种想像，达到真正的自由。Artist developed the Dream Machine.

Some have called the Dream Machine a drug-less high. Gysin, through archival interviews, many of the Dream Machine's users, some of whom are friends of Gysin, and scientists tell of their experiences with the machine and speculate on its physiological effects.
