Your Dreams To Movies Overnight Watch your dreams when you wake up

[BooZker 0]

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!

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 love remembering dreams, in my dreams I live in empires where i alone am god, and control everything, i dream of beautiful women, being rich as bill gates and all kinds of things of the sort, but i only remember dreams about once a week. -.-" but yeah i'd totally buy that *BLEEP*!

i have some pretty weird dreams, when one time i ran up my stairs, jumped into my bed, looked at my clock (5:42 AM) and fell asleep, and at the moment i fell asleep, i woke up, and guess what time it was =D 5:42 AM

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?

YES! I would always of wanted one of those because most of our dreams have things we really want to go back to and see again, but later on the dream is lost in your mind. If they ever get one of these, I bet there will be lots of problems and risk that you would have to go through, and I wouldn't want to go through them. Cost if an important problems that would not be possible for probably me or others. I remember thinking about a way to record our dreams, it's nice to hear someone has the idea too!

No.

I'm not trying to take personal shots at you. I always take the role of a realist in this forum in order to attempt to keep the ideas levelheaded. This isn't the fiction forum, I believe it's meant for possible ideas or concepts, and I'm not taking hard shots at your idea alone, I'm just trying to bring the idea more down-to-earth.

Well i think it's funny your site says,"Dare to let your imagination dance." Well it is.

Touchy.

Hey, I'm all for science fiction, but as I said, this is an ideas thread, not a science fiction thread, and I enjoy attempting to keep things a bit more level-headed around here (like with an old topic in which a guy suggested a real HUD that can tell you how much life you have left and what the consequences of your actions are).

That's not very clear though either. What if you were to walk out in front of a car. Then that thing was useless because it would never have time to tell you. Right now you can go to the doctors and give them a bunch of answers such as do you smoke, drink, ect and they can estimate pretty good. The HUD would be pretty useless because you can only get hurt so much. Life is not like a game where you can get shot 300 times and not die.
