The images appear on the screen one after another in breathtaking speed. One can follow this sequence of images, just as if the imagination had become self-sufficient; or as if it had traveled from inside to outside; or as if one could observe one's own dreams from the outside.
...some of the appearing images can be surprising: they are unexpected images. They can be preserved on screen (and in the computer's memory). Then, one can modify these preserved images; one can become engaged in a sort of dialogue between one's own imagination and the imagination fed into the computer.
