      I am in the beginning stages of an experiment which anyone can diplicate to gain their own personal dreaming hours at night while they sleep. Confused...... Dont worry i will fill you in!

      My experiment consists of a webcam, my laptop, my bed and me :-)

      When i sleep i have found that i smile or frown alot during dreaming period along with the REM action of my eyes. I know this as my girlfriend has informed me for sometime that she thought i was awake when really i was sleeping/dreaming.

      I intend to film my sleeping periods and find an average over a five days to find which hours through my sleep show most signs of dreaming. Now this is very useful information as i can set my audio alarms at these specific hours to induce lucid dreams alot easier. I can also then detect how much dream activity is noticed over the nightly periods and wheather it becomes a variable, for example if i am more tired than the night before or i have eaten something which is suspected of helping the dream state.

      I hope to keep everyone updated and would like any feedback you can offer.

      Thx Sostyles

      Haha, have fun watching 6 hours of footage! Sounds like an awesome idea, but how do you plan on watching all that footage?

      You can use the "night vision" option, but I don't know if that may affect your sleep in any way.

      Watching 6 hours , :/

      these are the kind of experiments I like. I just hope you don't roll over over at night so you turn your back on the camera.

      for doing so would make us Blind for the unimaginable, unparalleled Capacity of and Wisdom contained within our Felt Knowledge;Subconscious Intuition.

      This i have taken into account by using pillows mounted at each side of me to try and stop me rolling over, as for watching 6 hours of footage..... not really with good video software it is possible to cut the main 6 hours into blocks of 2 hours each then scan through it until my features or movements show signs of dreaming!

      Thanks for your interest, any more questions im all ears

      Thx sostyles
