| | I have been thinking about this since forever. Well the idea is you plug something into your brain. A microchip kind of deal. You then install special software on your PC along with a wireless card (the wireless would be the same as a laptop connecting to your PC through a network.) Then that night when you have a dream it sends the wireless dream signal or WDS (haha sounds real) to your computer. You computer reads it and makes it into a dream file or .df (haha sounds real also) You then can watch your deams the next day in color and all the same as watching any other type DVD or VHS movie. Fast-forward or pause and more! If they are any good you can burn them onto a VCD or DVD just like any other video file.
What do you guys think of it? It would be hella expensive, but would you buy it? And if so how much is the max you would pay all of it including the brain chip, wireless card, and software? I would page probably $1,000 for it. |

Anything's possible, eh? I would totally buy that if it existed (and was reasonably priced). I can never remember my dreams no matter how hard I try. I've been told that I talk in my sleep, but I never remember having a dream at all when I do. It'd be interesting to see it all like a movie, and see how long it takes to actually dream your dreams. Cool idea!

Cool idea! Actually for people who have your problem and want to remember your dreams do these steps: 1. Get book and a pen to write stuff in
2. Set your alarm for about 4-6 hrs after you think you'll be asleep. In other words if you fall asleep fast set it for 4-6 hrs of the current time. If it takes you 30 mins to go to bed set it 4-6 from the time in 30 mins.
3. When you wake up you'll have an 80% chance of remembering at least one dream that night. Write it down and every detail you can remember. Once done you can just go back to bed. When you wake you might remember more details. Make sure to write them down. After doing this for awhile you'll end up remembering your dreams a lot better.

Hmm, I'll have to try that. But then again it nearly takes an atomic blast to wake me up once I'm asleep.  I'd probably just smack my alarm clock until it goes off and then go back to sleep. But it's worth a try.

haha. Im a really light sleeper. It is really weird how you will start to remember your dreams. The first night i tried this i remembered 3 dreams that night. Oh yah make sure not to drink caffeinated pop before bed either.

I have been waking up at about 8:30 AM everyday for awhile because your supposed to do that if you want to remember your dreams and now i wake up naturaly at that time and remember my dreams much more vividly. It's awesome. All my dreams are at night though which is weird.

First, this "WDS" would cost a whole lot more than a thousand dollars. Maybe a few million after research, development, installation, programming, and testing. Second, when one wakes up and remembers their dreams, it is usually in some kind of logical order. However, if one watched the entire dream with every disgusting/odd detail, it wouldn't make much sense. Most dreams are just a jumble of detatched scenes that make rough transitions from one to the other, and the result would be a movie so stupid, it would almost make the new Adam Sandler movies make sense in comparison. Besides, a lot of dreams (whether we realize/remember it or not) are disgusting, embarassing things that we wouldn't want anyone (including ourselves) to know/remember. And then there's the whole thing about how one would get raw images out of the brain fast enough to be processed by a computer (since the brain operates much faster than any current supercomputer).

OK, dude, uhh if you havn't noticed this is the IDEAS forum. Well no *BLEEP* it would cost more then $1,000. Of course this could never happen. How can we convert brain images to images we can see with our eyes? We can't and probably won't be able to for 1,000's of years. It's just an idea. You don't have to say how this could never happen because i could go to just about 50% of all the topics in this forum and show you how it could never happen. Plus dreams are always things that you really want or really don't want. So even if it's embarassing its one of those two things. If it makes you feel better it would have a password system haha is that better?

QUOTE But if one would "save" a brainwave pattern and then force the mind into that same pattern, wouldn't it also cause one to be put into the same sleeping state as they were when having the dream, thus making the dream just as vague as before when one awoke? This could be a problem. Maybe it would be possible in these other two ways i thought of: 1. The Daydream Version: You will still be awake and you will see whatever is in front of you, but it would be just like a day dream. The problem is that it might make it sort of vague sence you are awake and the brain waves are not the same. 2. There is actualy a way to fall asleep into a dream. This way will actually make you paralyzed before you are asleep and this is sometimes very scary for people because they can not move. You become like this because your body shuts down as though it was ready to go to sleep. Maybe you would be able to make do a sort of thing like this. Your body is in sleep mode, but your mind is slightly aware that your body has shutdown. This way when the dream is over you can awake and your body will also wake. What you were saying could be a problem though.

QUOTE(BooZker @ Jul 27 2006, 07:27 AM)  anjin, that is a good idea. I like the idea about sending it back to your brain. just save the brain waves and then send them back to your brain. Well the computer would be able to make it just as you saw it in your sleep. So lets say you only saw a person and eveything else is black, but her face then that is what you would see on the computer. I see the problem though.
Thank you. I thought about this a little more and to be frank we are already more than half way there. Think about it there aree already programs that monitor brain waves and brain activities, if they could find a way to emit duplicate waves from the machine and then send them back to the brain we could rewatch our dreams.

This would be pretty awsome to watch...Also, I might try that way of remembering dreams you mentioned, might be fun  I have some weird dreams...but most of the time I know it's a dream, and thus I can do what ever I want, and I usually pick people up and throw them about...and make myself fly and run really fast...s'pretty weird, but cool
