Hey everyone,

For my work at uni i'm working on a live video installation. It's going to be based on dreams.

I want to collect as much information as possible about peoples dreams!

So if you would like to help me out please follow the link below, and write one sentence about a dream you remember really well.

Or if you have more detailed memories of your dreams (good or bad dreams) it would be great to hear about them! just write about them on this thread.

Thanks,
Liam.

(and i just realised this is the first post i have made in about a year... so, hi everyone!)

I submitted a sentence on your site. Good luck on the installation.

Some further thoughts on my dreams:

I am now over four years out of high school. I have had plenty of interesting experiences and interactions and friendships and struggles and whatnot since then. I maintain friendships with a very small number of my high school classmates. However, this does not stop me from dreaming almost exclusively about kids I went to high school and about the actual building I went to high school.

In adventures I take in dreams, I often encounter or am accompanied by random people from my high school. I'm not even necessarily talking about friends I've since lost contact with, but random kids I hadn't talked to since fifth grade but would still see in the halls.

I often have dreams in which I am playing soccer with the boys I played soccer with on the school team. In the dreams I'm only playing with the boys that were in my graduating class, not people who were a year above or below me, even though I played with them at the same time as I did those kids exactly my age. My dream soccer players play remarkably similar to the way they played in life.

By far the dream I have most often is as follows: I am struggling with getting my locker unlocked, messing up and forgetting the combo, etc. By the time I'm done with my locker I have to rush out of the school to get the bus. At this point, either the buses are already pulling away or are gone, or I simply cannot figure out which one in the long line of buses is the one I am supposed to take. So I either walk home (a feat that would have been impossible in real life but in the dream there are shortcuts) or call my mother for help.

I find it odd that I still dream almost exclusively of high school and not of what happens to me in my life now.

I'm journaling my experience with training myself to have lucid dreams.
