very neat, it would be cool in the future to be able to watch your dreams later that day, it would kinda bug me if dreaming went mainstream, but i guess the pros would still be pros and the joes joes. |

That's so cool. Now they just need a way of interpreting and playing back the recording. |

Give it 5 years and there will be 1 i bet ya!, the computer at the moment can collect images that you are thinking within 5 years i bet you will be able to record and playback your dreams hopefully anyway |

This was one-half of the premise of my Nanowrimo 2009 novel. I set it some 200-300 years in the future. That's life as a sci-fi writer: sometimes things aren't as far in the future as you think they are. |

I'm talking more about people sharing dreams that have other real people in them. like if i had a dream about someone that i know in which they were naked and i showed others (or the opposite), that would infringe on an individual right to privacy. |

I would not be interested because the beauty of dreams it's that it's something personal and recalling stories on your own is great. |
|
nikkonic, I understand what you mean but its just a dream.... also what exactly do you mean by dream plane. and I agree it would kinda ruin dreams.... |

I still think it's a heck of a jump to go from PET brain scans while the subject is sleeping to what we would call a "video" of a dream. |

I'm guessing he means the whole supernatural thing where when you dream your spirits flies up to the dream plane and parties with other people dreaming at the same time, and fight off evil dream entities assuming you have a low enough Thac0. |

I agree with you moongrass it is just a dream. However we live in a world where a majority of people are paranoid post 911 and people can be arrested for buying things that just happen to resemble what someone would need to buy to make bombs or cook up drugs. They're a potential threat. Could you imagine what would happen if the proper people got a hold of some of the dreams that we record, full of violence, sex, drug use and probably a whole lot more that people just are just not to keen in sharing with the general public. I believe that the authorities would see our dreams as the hardest evidence that one could collect to build a case against someone for the simple reason that the dream comes directly from our subconscious. We (or at least I) use my dreams as a way to escape reality and do all those things that i can't really do in this world, unfortunately i don't think that the people who hold the power would see it as so. Granted this is just my opinion, but my gut tells me that if this does become a reality, we're just one step closer to the thought police we've read about in George Orwells' 1984. |

yup so true. Dreams really are a great way to do ANYTHING! Some friends I have want to read my dream journal and I'm like no, it's a very personal thing that some just would not understand. |

Oh man, I'd be way too embarassed to let someone record my dreams. I like to share my dreams, but only after the fact. You never know what sort of crazy things you might dream! I think the stress of knowing someone is recording it would make me have a nightmare. It's going to be the case of the observer changing what he observes. People probably dream and sleep a little differently in sleep labs with recording devices than they would at home, comfortably. |

This would be cool to use as a personal device that only you can access, watch, and use, but if hackers figured out how to get into them... well, you're in some trouble. The only way make this go public is if you created some advanced kind of security system for it and some very good sealing. Plus, police could, at any time, come into your house and watch your dreams, and, like Nikkonic said, police can arrest you for suspicious dream material. Even though you may know that you're doing this and it's just to do stuff that you normally wouldn't do but want to, the authorities probably wouldn't buy it. Then 34,000+ people get arrested, people go ranting everywhere they go because of it, they do all kinds of stuff to stop it, &c, &c, &c. Really, it's just an idea for chaos. |

yeah, I agree. I researched this article for a collage assignment and it brought up some good discussion, |

come on guys if there was a dream recording device, the police wouldnt come and arrest you beacause of a dream, theres no physical evidence of any law breaking, sometimes it is uncontrollable what you dream about. They would surely be understanding im sure some police have dreams that they wouldnt want any1 else to see. + why be afraid people will know your thoughts do u not think you couldnt delete any footage captured?! |

Don't forget brain hackers. Once you figure out to do one thing, you can easily do the reverse. In this case they can feed nightmares and horror movies into your dreams. |
