It immediately precedes but is not part of the "Travels with Jack" adventures, each of which is entitled Dreams of ... Recording and WritingThomas Lopez, the author and director, of the drama spent a month in Brazil digitally recording sounds of the Amazonian rain forest and Brazilian cities. He first recorded the location sounds and then wrote the story around the sounds he recorded.[2] More than 20 hours of sounds were recorded by Lopez in Brazil to be used for the story's aural setting. The story's script continued to evolve as Lopez worked with the drama's actors and composer, Tim Clark. PlotDespairing of a United States where consumerism has completely taken hold, Jack, while trying to escape the endless mall, has a chance encounter with Short Top Detroit that sends him off to Rio de Janeiro and into possession of a mysterious crystal skull. Dodging crooks, Candomblé practitioners and vampire bats, Jack journeys deep into the jungle with a beautiful anthropologist, in search of a lost city, finding time to fall in love along the way. Meanwhile, Short Top bumps into Miranda and they drift around the city together, discovering their mutual love of Carmen Miranda. Notes & themesThis adventure marked a major departure from the previous stories in that it is set entirely in 'the real world' - Jack does not travel to any of the Invisible Realms. Although not mentioned in this story it marks the beginning of the "Jungle Jack" aspect of his character. Previously his aspect had been that of a shaman and later "Captain Jack" is added. Lopez planned for Little Frieda to appear in Dreams of Rio, but actress P.J. Orte wasn't interested in returning.[3] In her place, Sabine Thomson appeared as "Big Frieda". Orte eventually returned to the character in 2000 for Return to Inverness. There is a strong ecological theme running through the story illustrating the mass consumption of a consumer society and the destruction this is wreaking in the third world and in particular the Amazon rainforest. "You can't do a story of the Amazon without bringing in the destruction of the Amazon," Lopez said.[2] QuotesVoice: "On Wednesday, all the malls across America connected. They merged into one gigantic endless mall."Jack: "You mean America has only one shopping mall?" Voice: "America IS one shopping mall." Jack: "You mean we've been--" Voice: "--Yes. Malled from stem to stern." Carmen: "I don't want him." Frieda: "Well that's good because he has someone else, she has him now." Carmen: "Who?" Jack: "It's just some snake goddess who came out of the skull, it's nothing, really." Credits
