Thread: Dreams

your whole argument is based off of this sentence:

This can generally be overcome.

if you can cite me some form of evidence that proves that humans can "generally" overcome the transition of knowledge from unconscious to conscious i will concede my efforts and thank you for the enlightenment

It's called writing down your dreams when you wake up.

You miss a lot at first, but you do hold on to the key events, characters and symbols as well as basic plot. This is what storytelling is in the first place.

The more you do it, the more you remember your dreams, but the longer you take from the moment you woke up to writing it down, the more it slips away.

a similar event occurs when you experience things consciously, but the memory loss occurs over a larger time frame, and it is just as prone to embellishment as dream recollection/recording.

Its not exactly evidence but many people have learnt to remember their dreams, which is a form of what you said basically I think.

I did all this years ago and it worked for me. I haven't always been able to remember my dreams so well.


edit: also no I don't think so simon, I'm guessing his dreams just went into a lot of detail and he's describing it. I've had dreams that do similar, I find it wierd, as its almost real to be honest. But it is interesting, and I enjoyed reading coqs dreams.
