What do you think the future will bring to LDing? Do you think it will ever become popular among the general public? Will LDing benefit from new technologies? |

12 LDs at least (most short), all DILD I believe.

You talk to vacuum cleaners and safes, you've had apple trees growing in your living room, tigers and horses in your dining room, an elephant in your bedroom. I've seen you locked in a jail in the middle of your living room and once someone swore they saw you floating in mid-air! How do you explain that, Major Nelson!?
AHHH! In the future, LDs will be commercialized! Corporate America strikes again! |

They practically are already with all the LD-related stuff people are selling |

this is very interesting. i agree with Schmaven, LD's are definitely getting more "popular". also it was even on the news, and i know a lot of people watch that. |
|
future? same underground style as now. It will NEVER get mainstream and thats no problem to me. |
|
Quality LD's: 16
i know what you mean james, same thing with my friends also. but the people who are interested will invent new things to enhance the experience, that's how i feel anyway. for example the nova dreamer was at one point unthinkable. |
|
as technology progresses, i really do think at LEAST more scientists and researchers will approach the subject. LDing really is an unbelievable thing, and finding out how to record, share, etc. lucid dreams by recording brainwaves and bio-electric-activity will really be a money maker, so i think in the future it WILL be mainstream, since america is so greedy. lol i have no idea how they'll try to re-create the experiences.... binaural beats already completed the task of changing your brainwave frequencies, so the only thing left to do is figure out how to change the wavelength and amplitude of your brainwaves before we can share eachothers lucid dreams!!!! hahaha well at least i hope so... im not a neurologist.... |
|
I agree with you on that. |
|
For technology affecting LD'in further, I say that it probably will. Anything hat's affected be technology will eventually be affected by technological growth. As for the recording dreams, they could be rcorded, and possibl even decoded, but I really think they'll hae to be played on a media other than the sleeping human brain, considering that each human brain is different, physically as well as mentally. |

Well, we already have the technology the scan and record brainwaves in real time. Problem is we dont know how what does what.. we know a shit ton about the brain we just really dont have a proper theory. All we've been doing is whoring information in the however many years. We know whats there, we just cant connect all the the dots yet. Its just a matter of time before we have a complete and accurate 'map' of the brain. Obviously there will be exceptions, but this will go places. |

I have the same trouble convincing friends of the sheer amazement that lucid dreams offer. The thing is, a lot of them play RPG's and fantasy games to escape from the real world - but LD's are infinitely better escapes from the real world than video games (not that I don't love video games ). I guess I will never be able to understand why only a handful of people find LD's so interesting. |

Chillax, broski.
Dreams have always captivated people and we have yet to discover its mysteries. So as |
|
I think, future will bring some elcetronic devices which will help people to get lucid dreams both faster and easier, as a fun or some kind of distraction. May be there will be games which will involve tasks and other stuff about doing specific things once lucidity is achieved. I don't think "fights" will be the subject of such tasks because of its too easy to win the enemy since we have absolute power inside. |
|
I would not at all be surprised if very soon technology that could easily induce lucid dreaming was created and it became a serious commercial phenominon. It would certainly be appealing and as long as they passed it off as VR it would become popular and addictive. It shouldn't be too hard to create a "dream machine" should it? Think of the adverts! There's so much money involved I don't understand why more people aren't taking lucid dreaming seriously. |
