I promise next time I am in a Lucid Dream I will try to compose something. i cannot wait |
|
There has been much discussion about writing songs or composing music in a lucid dream. The question is not weather its possible. I think we can all agree that in a lucid dream, writing a song is possible like flying to the moon is possible. The better question, i think, is if it's a good way to write music or if our bodies are just so doped up on melatonin(and whatever else is goign through your body at night) that we think its a good song. Now, I know there is no way to measure how good a song is. That will have to based on personal perspective of the one writing the song. And if a recording can be made, it'd be a plus if everyone could listen. |

I think Im most creative while dreaming. I can't just sit down any-time Im awake and write a good piece. but my hypothesis is that in a lucid dream...I can. Because in my dream Im not limited by anything. Thought becomes reality. And I dont see why non-lucid dreams would be any less wierd than lucid ones. My dreams are pretty strange...lucid and non-lucid alike. |

"There are two types of people in this world, people who think there are two types of people, and people who don't."
When Im in a dream, lucid or not, I am not in the same state of mind as awake. not even close. And besides that, when Im awake, it's much more difficult to take the music out of my head. But if I can actually HEAR the music. its so easy. Well, enough said. I should have results within the week. Assuming the best of success Ill have a recording ready. Even if the song is complete crap. For the sake of science Ill put whatever nonsense I come up with online. |

I play music entirely by ear. So we are alike. |

Writing music during lucid dreams is the entire reason I'm here. The first time I heard about lucid dreams was from a friend talking about people being able to write music during them. So, I'm extremely new .. about as new as it gets, but very interested in your results. |

I was attempting my WBTB that was sure to be a success,last night, and to my surprise I had a DILD before even waking up the first time. Unfortunately I wasn't prepared to do what I wanted to. Actually it didnt even occur to me what i wanted to do. Instead I walked around the dream world and passively made observations about the nature of it. it was very interesting. Then I did wake up and stayed up for 45 minutes and went back to sleep, hyped up, and ready to go lucid and write a song. Everything was perfect. I almost had a WILD as a matter of fact. My hypnagognic imagery was full on and I was getting so close to a dream. my thoughts were focused on my mission the whole time. Well, I didnt succeed at a WILD as I eventually lost focus, but still was set up for what should have definately been a good lucid dream. Unfortunately I was woken up by my brother, who is my roomate, right in the peak REM cycle. He needed my phone. So there goes my best day of the week for pulling it off. It's my fault though, since I didnt try it friday night. I didnt plan for it not working out. Well, Im impatient, so Im not just gonna wait til next weekend. Im gonna go to sleep as early as I can and try to pull it off in the week. Last night was not a total failure. I had a good DILD, which Im not particularly good at, and I now feel more aware of my dreams than I have been since coming back to DV. |

Ive been so busy this past week that I havent had a chance to try it, but Im not done with this experiement. I tried last night but for some reason didnt wake to my alarm. I did wake up after 6 and a half hours and decided itd be best not to stay up too late, since I over slept.. I didnt even get out of bed. I just went back to sleep. I had a bizzarre dream that eventually became lucid. It was a good length, but I didnt rememeber what I wanted to do(write a song), til the end. And when I realized it I did manage to get something out, but it wasnt the kind of music I write. It was hip-hop. I was freestyling. But to completely invalidate anything Im about to tell you, I cant remember any of it now. At the time I thought it was really good and I was paying attention to the words as it happened. I was impressed with it, especially because I can't rap, but still, this brings me right back where I started. The whole point is to be able to bring the music back with me. I failed. Im 0 for 3, but this was the closest so far. The reason it didnt work this time, Im pretty sure, was because I didnt stay up for awhile. I usually use that awake time to focus my thoughts on what im going to do. I get my self psyched. Last night, I was out of it. I just woke up, and went back to sleep. Telling myself to have a lucid dream, but not much mental preparation beyond that. |

Well I'm still following your progress. Good luck. |

I finally did it!......well....sorta. I just had one of the most vivid, intense lucid dreams ever and remembered this experiment during it. I had the most perfect circumstances to have a lucid dream. I just caught a flight from portland oregon to chicago. I got about 5 hours sleep on the flight. Then the time from getting off the plane til getting to my moms house and going back to sleep was between 60- and 90 minutes. Perfect! So tired from travelling I fell asleep easily and even had the thought as I was going to sleep that I should have a lucid dream in this situation. Enter dream... |

My computers been broken for about a month now and I finally got the chord I need. I accidentally ordered one from hong kong, so 3 weeks later, Im here. Ive since had one more failed success with this experiment. I again tried writing music in a lucid dream and it was crap. I think I put too much pressure on myself at the time. Hasnt worked at all as I expected. If I have any different results Ill post. Has anyone else even attempted this? |

Last night I had one more lucid music dream. This time I decided to follow through and try to capture the music next time. It's always music that is totally original. By that I mean I've never heard it before. But it is always conveyed to me in the guise of some tangible artist. Last night it was REM. In the past it has been Tom Petty . Another time it was George Harrison. It is always music of the flavor of that particular artist yet it is music that is totally new and previously unheard. I have finally gotten a little tape recorder that I am going to go to sleep with at my side. I will program myself to transfer the music of my lucid dream onto tape. I am excited about the possibilities. I am an amatteur musician and I know how to play rhythm guitar and drums. Up to this point I've been totally lazy about this phenomena. Now I'm getting serious. Here's my intention: I'll hum the song into the tape recorder while I am still lucid. Will let you know how the experiment goes. |

I woke up early last week with a song in my head. It was just as pronounced as it is when you get a song in your head during the day. |
|
Cool topic! Being a musician myself this is something i can completely relate to and would love to achieve myself one day. |
|
Nirvana songs and lyrics that dont exist turn up a lot in my non lucid dreams. I had one about a week ago with a melodic version of scentless apprentice, but I can never remember music from dreams. |

lucid dreams:1
Time to blow the dust off of this experiment and get it going again. I'm now realizing how caught up in things Ive been since I started the experiment. There's been so much on my mind the last several months, but lately I've been writing and recording a lot of music, so this might be the best time to try a lucid song writing session. |

That is one of my goals. However, even if I hear and remember it, I won't be able to compose it in real life. |

LD's Since Joining: 6
I have an experience with music in LD. I was looping on NPC. That was exactly. In the next LD I will attempt to play the piano, something hard for example classical Fantasie Imprompt. |

accually i have tried this before. it turns out the song i wrote was exactly the same as a real life song. lol. |
