Did you ever have a narrator talk in your LD's?

No, but I was the narrator once. Harassing the poor DCs who could do nothing about it. First I would narrate things they weren't doing, and this would get them angry. Then I would narrate something undesirable and make it come to pass.

Hehe, all good fun. :)

Wow! I had no idea this occurred so frequently!

For me, sadly (luckily?), I get no narrations. Not in lucid dreams, nor normal dreams. I narrated my chemistry studying last night (in a dream), but that doesn't count for much.

Abra, I would say luckily because for me it's just annoying if someone narrates my dreams. It' like WTF, get out, this is MY dream, ya know?

i draw a lot, and write stories. most of my drawings are things that have never set foot on this earth, you can call it surrealism or whatever i don't really bother with art genres. anyway, my point is, just because you see something you've never seen before, doesn't mean there's something special or significant about. by the way, everything i've ever seen in a dream i could have easily imagined during waking life (flying, robots, being one with everything, etc.) nothing has been totally alien to me in any dream of any sort lucid or non-lucid. that does not mean they aren't amazing and definitely unique, i'm just saying i could have thought of everything i've ever dreamed about while awake. i'm open to the slight possibility of dreams being "real" because as you've said you experience real feelings, memories, etc. but i know that dreams aren't real in the same way that you and me are, and what i mean by that is solid. dreams are very fluid and flow easily and change constantly even with recurring dreams nothing is exactly the same, there's always something different about it, at least with my experiences and from what i've heard of others.

I agree. wouldnt you say that the creation of something absolutely unique is part of what gives credit to the reason why creativity and imagination are words that have come to exist?

i'm not following :P

what do you mean exactly?

everything comes from somewhere, we just rearrange things, sort of like molecules and atoms rearranging to make 'different' things, although it's the same things just moved around.

what people define as creative is just people rearranging things in there own way. so really there is no 'creation', just perpetual rearrangement.

for example, a dragon is made up of a bird (talons), a big cat (big sharp teeth) a lizard (scales), etc. basically all the major predators combined to make a 'super predator'. so all these things put together make something 'new'. my point is that's how people can think of new ideas from things that already exist.

well certainly there is a limited number of things to work with (only so many elements, colors, materials, ideas) but new things do come into fruition that aren't just re imaginings. yes everything comes from somewhere, but do you mean to imply that everything is based on one thing? a bird, you could argue, is made up of its organs, organs made of tissue, made of cells, made of atoms, made of all the parts that make up atoms down to that very tiny final piece of whatever that makes up all life. it seems if you continue your point though it would make sense to say that there are infinite possibilities for new things rather than just a limited number of re-imaginings.

you're right, everything is based on the same thing, if you want to get atomic about it, but a new animal is not a new element, and a new element is not a new idea. I guess what I'm saying (in a certainly convoluted fashion) is that new ideas can be created, some may be rearrangements (printing press essentially automating scribes), but some can be entirely new. (scientific explanations typically do this)

Yes, I have. It said, "Here is a perfect example of the three most evil things in existence; Thieves, people who climb walls, and dolphins."

I got my first narrator 2 days ago although it was not lucid. I was flying over a kind of big forest with little swamps in it. It was kind of creepy. Narrator was a female. She talked the whole time when I flied and landed. There were shapes, symbols on the swamp and the narrotor was saying these symbols mean something very evil. Then saying " Doomsday is coming". When I landed and went to see the symbols I felt an unknown evil and danger instantly. By the way those symbols were kyriptonian as the narrator said. But they were different than kyriptonian symbols. I guess too much Smallville can cause that kind of dreams :D

omg i did have a dream earlier this week anyways i saw titles and it was kinda like a movie it was like me refering water sports and music was playing and something in my head was like part 2 n cant remember what he was saying but i kinda realised i dreamt this before then i just thought oh well -.-

i don't agree that something can be completely new. you don't have to go to the atomic level or below to see this, planets and solar systems resemble atoms anyway but that's beside the point. if i kept going with my point (which is nothing is new) than yes it is a limited number of the 'human' imagination, and that was part of my point also (that humans can't imagine something new). reconfiguring doesn't need conscious effort, you and i can't possibly comprehend the magnitude of how things rearrange. we as humans take what we see and say "i discovered this, or i 'made' this" where in fact it's always been there (america for example), or we just move things around and make a new invention. but what's new to us is really something that has always been there just not in the same place (so distance between molecules and atoms is the difference between 'new' and 'old' from the human view point).

in short, the imagination is limited, not the possibilities, like i said we can't even comprehend the possibilities. i should have just said that in the first place :P

edit: i know america has not always been around, it's just been there long before we knew about it.

I would love for Morgan Freeman to narrate my dreams. Whenever I read things, I here his voice. It's quite fun.
