this DJ is more to help identify dream control methods and tackle a system of dream control that works outnght, today are more abstract note
Notes
- REM sleep is vivid to the point where clothing can feel entirely different to what's worn outside of a dream.
- the dream can react poorly in terms of stability if the form is altered.
- The effects of the dream aren't flashy because one's visual imagination may not have a direct point of reference.
- dream control in relation to magic systems isn't necessarily a shortcut, but it can help to organise dream control
- The brain likes it's realism, it's similar to "consensus" from Mage: The Ascension, and dream control seems to be oddly easier once no one is looking.
WAKING TASK: find a reliable system to build your dream control around, and practice visualization that isn't tactile.
Dream Points
- I managed to destabilise the dream until it changed most of it's topic.
- There was a really, really nice roadside shopping mall with multiple levels.
- I got into a toy war with a NERF gun that had multiple firing modes dependant on how you squeezed the trigger, automatic was "mid-way", semi-automatic was all the way, and the NERF gun appeared to have some kind of pneumatic firing mechanism.
Techniques attempted:
- Shapeshifting (attempted a female form in order to destabilise the dream enough to change it's topic).
- Conjuration, attempted to conjure the book from hunter x hunter's greed island arc
- Flight, wanted to traverse the mall.
