Dream Avatar

This is an idea that came to me whilst watching Paprika. In the movie, whenever the main character, Atsuko Chiba, has a lucid dream, her dream form is a different person. Rather than an uptight, quiet 30-year old, she becomes an outgoing, happy, fearless 18-year-old named Paprika. This avatar is not the exact same person, but not exactly a separate consciousness either.

It made me think. Why not try to assume a new personality in a LD? View the world from another perspective. Become that person you’ve always wanted to be, regardless of social/cultural inhibitions. After some practice one could have a regular dream avatar, a representation of their true consciousness.

What are everyone’s thoughts on the subject?

Experiencing reality from another person’s perspective would be a really interesting and fun thing to do. Combine that idea with a 100 year dream and in a week you’ll be wiser than Socrates. Thanks for the great idea. (this would be perfect for the BIG fav. thing to do in a LD topic.)

I know i will be doing this! :cool_laugh:

It’s gonna be sweet.

Cuz come on…

I gotta look a LITTLE badass while doing this stuff!

Oooh, never thought of that! You could use that to solve conflicts with other people. Just take both sides and you’ll find the perfect compromise in a night.

Begin your creation of dream Avis!
