dream sequence

If I hear any sound in my dreams its some sound from outside my head seeping in just before it wakes me up.

I think that's one of the traits of the sound I'm thinking of in this thread

One morning, listening to this I woke up at the terminal stop of London's central line, two or three times.

Other people's dreams are notoriously boring. That being said, I have had some of the most lurid, realistic dreams ever experienced. Full sensory range including pain, fear, etc

Had a recurring dream set in an airport departure lounge in an unknown city/destination

The urge was always to get on the plane but infinite distractions got in the way. Like pizza, or cards or any inane shit. If this batch had a themed soundtrack it would be

me and fat jim saw him live and offended everyone by getting pissed adding unneeded vocal commentary and going to the toilet every 3 minutes

never seen him live apart from some relaxed djing at oto a couple weeks ago, but I've heard his performances are as bad as great his releases are.
feeling him on the bladder problems tho, I recall trying to pee right before my set one night waiting for 15 mins in the usually busy toilet queue at the venue

there was only one bathroom there for about two hundred people, at some point I ended up going my mate's place across the street just to have a wee

is it normal to hear sound in dreams?

I never hear conversation, dialogue seems to be beamed directly into my brain. Silent conversation.

Now that scientists can manipulate dream content, advertisers want in

The start of a harmful trend

As an example, consider the collaboration between Coors beer and Harvard sleep scientist Deirdre Barrett, who has been on a media whirlwind after her project to track pandemic dreams (I am skeptical there is anything very interesting to track, but it sure is clickable). Here’s the description of the collaboration:

“Visit CoorsBigGameDream.com, watch the dream inducing film three times, play the soundscape, go to sleep, and leave those “quarandreams” behind. Yes, it’s that simple.”

In response to these new initiatives, just last week a number of prominent sleep scientists signed a petition against advertisers using TDI by companies having people play soundscapes during their sleep that supposedly lead to Coors dreams. The letter reads:

“[It] is easy to envision a world in which smart speakers […] become instruments of passive, unconscious overnight advertising, with or without our permission,” the letter authors said. “These tailored soundtracks would become background scenery for our sleep, as the unending billboards that litter American highways have become for our waking life.”

One of the letter’s authors was motivated to write the letter specifically because he’d already been contact by three companies (Microsoft included) trying to rope him into dream incubation advertising.

the book i just read 24/7 is about this. sleep as the last standing refuge and stronghold from capitalism and that it is being encroached on and undermined at every angle by capitalism with the ultimate fantasy being eradication of sleep or failing that adverts in dreams.

The Uncanny

You know it when you hear it... The album thread has me going back over Amber for the first time in a while and realising just how strangely familiar and dreamlike the whole thing is. It's probably not my favourite of theirs (Autechre), but it's the only one that really has this quality for me...
