User blog:Xerox180/Dreams and the brain a live conversation


 * Xerox180 so you wanna learn about the subconscious today?
 * or just my experience?
 * or both?
 * 8:26 Ivixor Sure.
 * 8:26 Xerox180 ?
 * both
 * 8:26 Ivixor Both
 * 8:26 Xerox180 okay well one night i had a dream i was falling off a building and i was falling onto the floor
 * 8:26 Ivixor I want to see what you think you know
 * 8:27 Xerox180 well what do you think you know?
 * what is subconcious to you?
 * 8:27 Ivixor I don't know anything
 * I really don't
 * 8:28 Xerox180 okay well the subconcious is the totality of mental processes of which the individual is not aware; unreportable mental activities.
 * 8:29 Ivixor I've heard,but that is about it.
 * Alright
 * 8:29 Xerox180 so when you dream your subconcious is working your concious has become innactive
 * notice how when you dream you remember when you awake how you remember parts of the dream or even the whole of the dream in detail but never the beggining
 * thats were inception comes into place
 * you can in fact give someone an idea without them knowing whereit came from
 * like how you dream about doing something like riding down a hill on your bike and the next morning you remember it so you try to attempt it
 * you see when the concious is innactive the memory part of the brain is still working
 * so some dreams you remember
 * there is a movi coming out called MALL with this kid takes a drug that makes his visualization supersensitive like at one point he visualizes turning into a werewolf and he actually beleives it and feels it and sees it
 * so there are drugs out there that can hyperstimulate your ability to visualize things with your mind just as there are certain things you can do to control your dreams allowing you to work both stimuli in your brain at once, your concious and subconcious
 * do you follow me?
 * 8:37 Ivixor Yep keep going
 * 8:38 Xerox180 so if i say dont think about tigers what will you think about?
 * Tigers right!
 * 8:38 Ivixor I would still think about tigers
 * 8:39 Xerox180 so me saying that just worked two parts of your brain
 * 8:39 Ivixor Yep, hate typing on my phone
 * 8:39 Xerox180 memory, because you just brought up a picture of a tiger in your head right
 * and it worked visualization because you visualized a tiger
 * now where that image of a tiger came from you dont know do you?
 * so your brain cannot trace the origins of a thought
 * but it can use memory you didnt know you had so in a sense you just used your subconcious thinking about tigers
