The dreams you recall are just artefacts of the restore process initialising your mind.
i always remember the bit about trying to flip light switches in a dream to determine whether you're really dreaming or not.
I could be wrong but the experience you're describing sounds like lucid dreaming.
It's almost as if dreaming is quasi-psychedelic
does it feel different (better) than vivid daydreams?
I remember reading that people used to believe that your whole dream happened in the few seconds before you woke up. Would be interesting if that was actually close to the truth.
We already do this it's called dreaming.
interesting. sounds a lot like something i experienced for a long time, where i was unable to differenciate between dreams and reality
I find this notion hard to reconcile with the occasional phenomenon of recalling the contents of an earlier dream only after several hours of having been awake.
Sounds like we've invented dreaming now.
