Structures…

     I have always been blessed or cursed with the ability to vividly remember many of my dreams.  However, last night not so good because bad nerve pain made it difficult to sleep more than a half-hour at a time.  It usually takes me about an hour or an hour and a half to get into an intense dream state.

     The night before however, I dreamt of strange structures.  Apartment like buildings, dwellings, that on their roof there was a giant structure that resembled ribs, and they attached to part of a huge dome like structure above.  At some point this massive dome like structure was going to lift all of these apartment buildings with their occupants and take them to another world.  How air and oxygen would be supplied wasn’t clear.  The dome structure was truly huge, many of these dwelling complexes were attached to the under side of it.  The “ribs” allowed the following of the curvature to attach to flat buildings.

     I often wish I could get a picture of something I dreamt, like this, because I’d like to show it to people, but artistic I’m not, my drawing ability is very poor.  I remember seeing a research project in which they were actually extracting images from peoples brains based upon their brain waves.  It involved a neural net being trained by showing people images and using that and the various electrical sensing points as input, and over time the neural network was able to roughly reproduce the images people were seeing but even more that they just thought about.  I wish I had a machine like that to apply to my dreams.
