    I took a one week break from working on projects, and it did a lot of good to my dream recall.
    Unfortunately I'm back to working now, which means no more WBTB/WILDs.
    My dream recall has already suffered notably from this.
    It's quite unfortunate, I felt like I was finally getting the hang of WILDing.


    The 4th Dimension

    I'm at uni, walking through the corridors towards my classroom.
    For some reason I end up in what seems to be some sort of physics laboratory.
    I question whether this is where I belong.
    I remember that I am actually majoring in CS and not physics, and that this is definitely not a room I've been in before.
    But as the teacher enters the room I decide to ignore this for some reason, and just go with it.

    I don't know what the course is about, but I recognize elements from quantum physics.
    Then the teacher talks about the fourth dimension (spacial dimension, not time).
    I know a few things about that, so I'm not too surprised when she shows us a hologram of a tesseract.
    But then she says she will materialize it. How on earth is she gonna do that?

    The teacher approaches me and hands me.... well... a tesseract... with transparent walls.
    I assume that it is some sort of model with joints that allows it to be moved similar to a rotation in the 4th dimension.
    But then I remember that this cannot work, it is physically impossible.
    As I touch the object, I realize that it is indeed solid. There are no joints, and all surfaces on it are perfectly solid.
    But I can rotate it the same way I would be able to rotate a 4 dimensional object... at least in theory:



    This fucks with my mind quite a bit.

    But then I understand that I am indeed dreaming, and don't understand why I didn't notice this any sooner.
    For some reason I still feel the need to figure out how this works though.
    How can I even interact with this? The dimensions do not match.
    But then I realize that I am somehow trapped in 4 dimensional space.
    Every object in the class room is 4 dimensional.
    My chair can no longer hold my body and I somehow fall through it.
    As I look up and see everything appear normal yet consisting of impossible shapes, my head starts to hurt and I wake up.




    Slight disorientation

    I'm home, hanging upside down from the lusters.
    A friend of mine enters the house.

    "What the fuck are you doing up there?"

    I look down... why the fuck am I hanging from the lusters?
    Or maybe I am not really hanging from the ceiling?

    "You mean down here. Why are you standing upside down over there?"
    "What? I am standing on the floor!"
    "Yes, and I'm hanging from the ceiling. What's your point?"
    "Dude..."
    "The ceiling is down, and the floor is up!"
    "No, it isn't."
    "Yes it is!"
    "Why?"
    "Because I say so."

    Gravity inverts and he falls down onto the ceiling.

    "What the fuck?"
    "Told you so."
    "I guess you were right."



    Trance

    I am sitting with a girl my age in front of a campfire.
    We have setup a tent over here, and it seems we are in the middle of the desert.
    But I can't tell for sure, it's pretty dark already.

    I realize the girl isn't human.
    Her hair is mixed with leaves... they are growing out of her head, just like normal hair.
    When I look into her eyes I can also clearly feel that she is not human.
    However she does look human, except for her hair.
    But I don't mind, I feel like this is the way it is supposed to be.
    I remember we both came here in order to get into some sort of trance with the goal to be enlightened.

    Wait a second... what the....?

    Oh! I'm dreaming!
    She looks at me, as if she just realized something.
    But she doesn't say anything, and hands me what appears to be a native american peace pipe.
    She smiles:

    "You need to smoke it."

    For some reason I feel like something special will happen if I smoke it.
    After all the goal was to get into trance right?
    I take a deep breath of smoke, and I instantly feel it in my head.
    I get extremely lightheaded, and have trouble not falling over, even though I'm sitting.

    "Good!"

    She smokes the pipe herself.
    Holy shit, what is going on, I feel like I'm falling through the chair, into the sand below it.
    I loose control over my body, and start to hallucinate quite vividly.
    At first it's similar to HI during SP, but then it gets much stronger.
    I see bright and vivid colors everywhere, intermixing with the landscape.
    I see plants growing out of the sand at an insanely fast rate.
    They start to blossom and fill the air with glowing pollen.
    The girl starts growing feathers over her body and flies away.

      Your dreams are awesome!!!!! The girl gave you a feeling of being very relaxed and self healing right? That is what she represents. the calm relaxing self healing aspect of yourself. You should meet up with her again and you can heal yourself if that makes sense....

      This is amazing. A Wrinkle in Time is an amazing book (if that's where you got the tesseract from.) The spacial version of the 4th dimension? Hrm. Hard to imagine, I have the 4th dimension grounded in my mind as time.

      I suppose so, the dream wasn't very vivid.

      No, I do not know the book, it does sound quite interesting though.
      I encountered some material related to higher dimensions during my shader programming studies (computer graphics), which is why I knew about hyperspheres and hypercubes.
      A tesseract is a 4-cube or 4 dimensional hypercube.
      If you think about how you can turn a 2d object (a square) into a 3d object (a cube), you can extrapolate how to create a tesseract (4d) from a cube (3d):

      That reminded me of the movies "The Cube". I think there are three of them, i ve watched the first two. The second has to do with the hypercube. Pretty nice movie. I laughed at your "disorientation" dream btw.
