Time control: possible in another way
There's a lot of discussion whether time control is possible in dreams. Most plausible is: our brain is not capable of processing everything x times faster (so that would be time control relative to RL time, slowing RL time down), therefore it's not possible.
However, I figured there's another "kind" of time control, and it's gotta be no problem to our brain. "in-dream environment" time control. And I think (I still gotta try) we would have the following possibilities:
- 1x to 0x speed (so one would just sorta "pause" the environment, meaning everything the dreamer sees doesn't move, but he/she can move around.
- Slowing things down (0.5x speed) by just slowing down the environment. Our brain is perfectly capable of it, think of it as imitating someone getting slow-mo punched in the face when you were at the primary school. Everything gets slowed down, except you. This would enable one to make awesome matrix-style moves :cheeky:
- Jumping back in time. I think this is clear to everyone. Just going back a few second to a few minutes back in times, with either the dreamer staying at the same place or returning to his/her position back in time
I don't know for sure, but with a little bit of imagination one could also go forward in time.
A time-controlling-device would make things even easier.
It all sound pretty easy to me but it might turn out quite tricky. Let the first one who gets to try it out post the results :D
Maybe it's a very stupid suggestion because it's already very common known :shock:
Anyway,
Let me know what you think. Correct me if I'm wrong with anything.
