I'd love to participate. Preferred induction method: DILD. However, I occasionally try other methods.
How will you, within your dream, determine how vivid that dream is. What contributes to vividness, and on what scale do we measure it? Colour? Sound? Details?
Blurriness is a big thing for me. The more blurry, the less vivid. Also, my non-vivid dreams have only a small amount of background stuff at most. Usually, the background is a gray swirl. So basically, a vivid dream for me is in focus, has a definite background, is colorful when one would expect it to be.
How will you determine to what extent you have recalled your dream? On what scale is it measured? For how long after the dream must details of said dream remain in your memory? And to what extent?
Usually, if I can remember any dreams, I will immediately jot down as many details as I can remember in my Dream Journal and go back to sleep. If I can remember most of the major details after falling asleep again, or, if I don't go back to sleep, by midday, I would call the dream memorable.
What is your 'ratio' of Sleep/Dream/Lucid Dream? Once this is determined we will use transition and probability matrices to figure out probabilities before and after using the track.
Usually, if I do remember dreams a certain night, I will remember two; one from waking up in the middle of the night, one in the morning. This happens no more than thrice a week. My lucid count is dreadfully small, so I'll just call it zero.
For how many nights will you used this track?
Every night I need to or can. Which is most nights.
What time before bed?
As I crawl into bed, I put on my STEREO HEADPHONES!™ and put on the track. Or I just play it on my iHome. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. I find myself unable to fall asleep while listening to the track for some reason, so I'll say just before bed.
What method will be used?
I don't quite get this question. I usually go to bed and try to wake up during REM cycles without an alarm as many times as I can at night. If I remember nothing but it isn't my "get up time," I will listen to the track again and then sleep again.
Assuming you're trying for a Lucid what method will be used? WBTB? WILD? DILD?
DILD and WBTB. I've not been very successful with those, though, but I'm thinking that the isochronic tones will work.. I will be, every couple nights, trying some random lucid method that I find on the forums until I find one that seems to work for me. If I find one, I'll edit this post or something.
Personal variables (I think that this should be a question).
Apple juice drinker, will be a smoothie drinker once I get some materials. Takes a Vitamin B6 and Vitamin C pill every night. No allergy meds. Heavy computer user (like, most of the day heavy).
EDIT: QUESTION! How should I report back my results? Should I report back daily? Is there a template for the results?
