Hi everyone, here's a kind of random question that I thought could have interesting ramifications. |

I think this could happen either way based on expectations and vividness of the dream. Still, I may give it a try if I think of it. |

Yeah that makes sense that expectation would play a role, thanks for the response! |

After reading about it... you should have asked for participation prior to writting what you thought could happen. |

I've tried this a few times in LD's, with mixed results: |

As always, well said, Sageous. |

And to add to what Sageous said: There are very few fixed processes in dreams, and this isn't one of the few. The ramifications of this are that the process varies from time to time, from person to person. Much more important and interesting though is the fact that with enough skill you can consciously change and adapt the process which ever way you want. Stuff like 360° vision, or seeing colors the daytime eyes can't perceive, I could even imagine seeing in 4D if you are able to add another whole dimsension (time) into what you're seeing. I'm sure there are more possibilites here as well. |

Personal Records so far: Max lucids per day: 2 | Max lucids per week: 4 | Max lucids per month: 8 | Max dreams recalled in one night: 17
Longest lucid dream: ~35min | Highest flight: zoomed out of common existence [WTF?] | Fastest speed: FTL | DILD/EILD/DEILD [X] | WILD/VILD [X] | MILD/FILD/HILD [ ]
Interested to know how I got 17 dreams in one single night? And how I think I still could Improve? Check out my new and improved Dream Recall Compendium: The Dream Recall Compendium
I can attest too seeing in completely different manners than is possible in real life. I'm not sure whether it's some intense trickery and self delusion going on, or the brain is actually capable of experiencing (and creating) an adapted form of vision. |

I think this would be easier to test if you WILD, so you can go from one state to another and right back, so that there's no gap in between. That way you can more easily compare those states. You could also try to take apart the flux of information you got during dreams and compare it to real life. |

I've never really tried to test this before so I wouldn't know. |

Hi - thought I'd throw in my 2 cents for whats its worth - its an interesting question! (Sorry if this is a bit garbled in advance, hitting the wine alittle early tonight!). Firstly (slightly tongue-in-check) you'd have to ensure all your observers had developed binocular vision - the cells in the brain which deal with binocular vision will only develop normally in someone who has had binocular vision (generally required from a young age) - so any 'one-eyed' lucid dreamers accounts - would be null and void I'm afraid. From your avatars I can see - NO eyes in 123 and StaySharp (slightly ironic in this context given your name!), and 2 eyes (though this does not guarantee normal stereopsis) in Sageous and Xanous, and squinty animal eyes (geese? - eyes wide set= limited stereopsis - more interested in peripheral vision to avoid predators) in Hukif! And dutchraptor - a vegetable with eyes - very untrustworthy! Just jokin |
