why only in dreams? that was the question which blocked all progress. every solution which could reduce time to something wholly present ruled that the pre-images should be just as observable when one was awake as they were when one slept. ~So why only in dreams?
A little consideration suggested the simplest way to set about a waking experiment would be to take a book which one intended to read within the next few minutes, think determindly of the title - so as to begin with an idea which should have associational links with whatever one might come upon in that future reading - and then wait for odds and ends of images to come into the mind by simple assocation.
The first experiment was a gorgeous success - until i discovered i had read the book before.
