Hi Rynkrt3, |
|
I wonder if Sageous has an opinion. It sounds promising to me. The test results they posted are similar to some of the regular lucid dreamers on here, so if I can just get there "naturally" along with the benefit of more self awareness and improved waking life, I would prefer to skip the expensive device...but it is tempting. |
|
I'v seen the kick starter video, and I don't really see how it is any different from the "other" lucid dreaming induction devices that they mentioned. I think even though the sound might bleed into the dream, you'd still have to be actively attempting to lucid dream to realize what the voice is saying and to act upon it, and then once you are lucid you would have no way of turning the voice off which could get annoying and could possibly wake you up. Although it is nice to see an active attempt to bring lucid aids to the spotlight. |

They say dreaming is dead, no one does it anymore.
It's not dead it's just that it's been forgotten, removed from our language.
Nobody teaches it so nobody knows it exists.
The dreamer is banished to obscurity.
Well, I'm trying to change all that, and I hope you are too.
By dreaming, every day.
Call me optimistic but i think it is easy to make a sound recorder you can turn off while in a lucid dream |

All lucid dreaming induction devices work through the same principle, EILD (externally induced lucid dream). No device that used EILD as of yet claims to produce results without first learning to recognize the external stimuli. For example, the REMI states that you must learn to reality check when you see a light source. just like how the LUCI will utilize a similar method with sound. |
|
When have I not had an opinion? |
|
Look here guys and gals: |
|
It is a scam. I have worked on an open source project that costs less and offers more, minus all the lucid dreaming hype. |

^^ Also, I just noticed that you cannot customize the audio message. It seems odd that such 1980's technology couldn't be included, and does indeed limit the unit's usefulness -- assuming of course that the electrodes work at all. Nice to know he'll add a USB port if people pour him some more money, though! |

Personally I prefer methods that don't use these crutches. I remember all the hype about the Remee and when I tried it out it either fell off unconsciously or It never got timed right. Never got properly lucid and when I saw the lights once I barely understood what they meant. The other ones that detect REM sleep are so bulky it's ridiculous and personally sleeping with earphones is incredibly uncomfortable so that thing won't work for me. There's no need to spend so much money for that thing just get a loop of a long track that's 90 minutes long and at the 90 minute place have your own voice saying your dreaming. I've listened to that track looped so it would hopefully get close to hitting all my REM cycles. It never worked in the 7 days I tried it. i couldn't fall asleep sometimes and others it probably got timed wrong. Sometimes it even woke me up from a dream. So i don't believe in these EILDs cause they have never worked for me |

^^ I think you have the right point of view (and, by trying this stuff out, you achieved it the right way as well). |
|
The magic word being "currently". |
|
^^ Yes, "currently" indeed! |
|
All the 'machines' marketed always seem to concentrate on wearing the damn thing all night. Of course it is going to be uncomfortable! I could never understand some of these designers. It is not natural to wear one of those things on your heed... plus you might get a visit from the Fashion Police. |

That is similar to the principal of TMS ( transcranial magnetic stimulation). We generally know the pattern of the brain during a lucid dream, and what parts are most active. The main idea is that we can stimulate neurons in those regions with a simlar pattern using magnetism or in the case of TCDS a direct metal strip. TMS is known to be effective in increasing the capacity to reason and the use for completely disabling a brain, it's a very powerful technology. |

Guys, do NOT invest in this! I repeat, DON'T. |

Do you have a link - or if that is for some reason not possible in here - a description of how to reach that page and see these? |

There is no rock solid evidence yet that it is a scam, but it's HIGHLY suspicious nevertheless. |
