This is from a long time ago, when digital photography wasn't available (nor spellcheckers, it seems), and university fees did not exist (student loans did, however).
"All that we see or seem is but a screen within a screen" was created just as computers were starting to become popular. To put it into perspective, I was the only one to write my entire dissertation on a computer. It's perhaps my favourite predictive piece.
And... Star Trek the Next Generation was on TV. I had a quote up on my workspace wall that quoted the venerable show (I can't recall what is what now) with STTNG badly written underneath as an attribution. My tutor, who was your typical art-teacher (read into that what you will), said, "Ah, yes, Sting, he's go insightful."
I nodded, and smiled to myself. So if some of the pieces sound like STTNG episode titles, that's because they are...
