Thread: Dream System Idea.. yea..

well, well sorry for double posting.. but i tried to edit in my spaces in the text and apparently my edits dont work..

I REALLY like the idea, and if you really believe it to be possible, i bet it will.

However, in regards to the "save files", i am not sure that could be possible, atleast not down the minute details.
But much like flying with some form of aid, this could very well aid in general dream control!

Yea I'm not really going for minute details. It's more like I would want to save something like the sky being some absurd color so that I know whenever the sky is that color that I'm in a dream.. Or other broader details like that..

It is hard to save things like that to normal dreams (non LDs)

Hyu however found a way to make a persistent realm, (when DJs are up go there and switch whatever username to hyu instead) it is a lot different, but it has a few close things. like persistence.

A lot of people have things like a pouch that has all your dream items that you ever put in it there. So this is kind of the same thing. Every time you become lucid you could pull out the control panel or something.

I really like the idea. One thing you might want (I don't know why, I thought that this would be cool ) is to put it in a secure location so that only you can get to it, this makes it to where in your mind some random DC won't wander around and mess it up. So have a sort of adventure and try and find it in a secure location and any time you want to change a setting (like sky or something) you have to go there to change it. This adventure might help keep it permanent. When you are there you should grab a remote for changing small things on the go. You don't want time dilated in every dream, but when you do, you press "slow" This only works when you touch it.
So... go on an adventure like in Inception^^^

AH!!! I really love this idea. You are awesome.

P.S. I feel pain in dreams because I believe it makes them more realistic. By choice and belief. Sometimes it hurts, but I believe that it makes it better.

P.P.S. If this doesn't make sense I will rewrite. I am in a hurry right now.

So big things need to be changed by going to location, that saves them. Small things are at the touch of a button^^^

Thank you BrandonBoss for taking the time to read it. And so let's see here I do like your idea of putting it in a secure location, but I have already accounted for DC's thinking their funny and messing with things. So what I've done and while this might sound a bit crazy, I'll explain it after saying what it is, I've essentially written up the code of the program to what makes sense to me in real life. Now let me explain my thought process here.. I figured that if I already had all the rules established in waking life for this "dream system" then it'd be that much easier once in dream to just get it going. (Although I don't plan to post the whole code thing, its more like just the rules and what is expected after I make certain requests and etc.) So, I've also decided it's going to be a mostly verbal system. I'll make a request and the system will respond back with a voice that says completed once the change is made. So anyways, anyways, I'll also have what I've started calling "menus" that come up with the swipe of my hand and they are essentially just interactive holograms with all the same features that I could use with my verbal commands. I don't know if this all makes sense, I kind of think some people are going to think I'm crazy, but oh well. And also, this is all assuming I'm going to be able to get everything to work.

Well, not everything works like you would expect in LDs. but you probably know that since you have... more than one.

But I am a fan of the "Anything that you want to happen in dreams can happen" idea. It might be hard, but don't give up if it fails! Think of Einstein! OH! Some people say he was an LDer, him and Tesla.

Some people like to limit "anything" to one dream. I do not believe it is so. Someone on here said that every time he dreamed he dreamed that he was in the "Plain of existence" from Simpsons (I am probably getting this wrong, so don't hate ).
I think that we are in control, but it is a hard thing to control completely consciously.

I think that you can get it in all dreams, but I think you should start by getting it in all LDs and then try and move it over.

I feel like we have to think of things like this when we are not dreaming.
"It is easy to have an epiphany in dreams, though you might not remember your name."

Yea I hear what you're saying.. And I definitely will never give up on this idea, the implications are just too great to me haha. And that's what I'm going to do definitely is start with it in lucid dreams then try to have it transition to every dream. I'm imagining that this whole thing is going to take me a lot of time. But, I have my entire life to perfect it.. And I'm planning on it being like a real computer program with regards to the fact that I'll keep improving on the 'system' overtime. But my hope is one day to have it function in every dream..

So it will be a real computer code right? That is awesome.

That is good. I believe that every good LDer has certain things that they do each time they are lucid. Something that makes it entirely their own. Your system could work for many, but each one would look different depending on what people interpret it to.

Also. I think that the best thing to do is always have fun doing it. I enjoy non LDs like crazy, so it helps me stay positive about LDing. You should enjoy working on your system.

I am more of an adventurer sort than most on here. For instance, when I am next lucid instead of making a bag to store all dream items that stays on my side at all times so I can always have whatever I want with an easy summon. I am going to begin a quest to create it. Might take me a few tries, but I believe that it will mean more to me if I do it this way. I do not know why I am this way. Prolly too much reading.

Well its not going to be a real computer code exactly.. I wrote it like one with all the functions and whatnot.. but its not written in an actual programming language its written in what I'm thinking will function as a programming language in my dream. And as a result everything in the system will work properly. I had to do this so that everything seemed logical and had reasons for happening.. I'm not very creative when it comes to things that are just imagination I guess.. I would post my whole 'code' but its uhh.. pretty long.. well probably not longer than my original post.. but I just feel it wouldn't make as much sense to someone else as it would to me..

And I do also think other could use my system too but they would have to write their own rules and functions so that its tailored to them.. That's one of the reasons I shared this was so that maybe it would inspire someone else to do it.

And I see how quests could be pretty fun in lucid dreaming.. Although I really am more impulsive I kind of just do whatever when I feel like it.. So this way too I feel like I'll have a lot more structure in my lucid dreams..

Yeah, one of the reasons I love LDing, is that there is no wrong thing to do in an LD. I have heard a few people say that they were bored in their lucid dreams, but I think that they need professional help.

Yeah, code doesn't really help me. I am a beginner coder, and I haven't decided if I am going to pursue anything more than what I can do (graphing calculator, very simple).

Dreams: Tailored to perfection

Yeah I'm not really a coder or anything I mean I used to do some programming in java, but I just like all the logic that it makes. It's all very organized and easy to understand.
