The Drug Song

Last night, I watched Inception (special showing for some people only - the movie is only going to the theaters here in Brazil on Friday. Me and some friends got the tickets at a Twitter promotion :D). This dream had a few vague things related to the dream, but none that I can recall properly.

I'm in a car with a friend. We are going back from some place where we had been doing something really important, something really big. I'm sitting on the left-hand seat, which would be the driver's seat IRL. My friend, however, is the one driving, as the wheel seems to be on the right side. Huh.

The friend's identity seemed to change during the course of the dream, as I remember at some point it was B., and other time it was G. There was a CD playing on the car's player. A song had just finished and another one started. I recognized it - apparently, it was a famous song that had the special effect of causing a drug-like high on whoever listened to it. It would be the same as if I smoked weed, I was told, though I couldn't really tell, as I have never smoked it. Regardless, I was pretty bothered with it. As the song played, everything seemed slower and I was getting drowsy. I felt as if I was drunk, too, and I wanted it to be over with. Besides, I was going to meet other people soon, and I didn't want to be intoxicated, even if pseudo-intoxicated.

We arrive and leave the car. Luckily for me, the effects of the song seem to wear off rather quickly, and I'm soon normal again. We meet my mother, and the three of us head somewhere else, in a hurry.

Hmm. Interesting dream!

I also recently watched Inception. Did you like it Bruno? I've noticed there's alot of talk on different dreaming sites I frequent regarding the film.

I quite liked the discussion of the 'architecture' of dreams. There was something there that got my attention, particularly with regards to deliberately intending particular locations such as a 'bank' to represent hidden information. Our dreaming often works with visual images, so I found it interesting the way the 'team' manipulated these visual metaphors for use for a particular goal within their dreaming.

If this were my dream:

I would notice that Inception (as in the formation of a new idea/feeling) seems to have come to me through the music.

Eer, that's Rodrigo, not Bruno :P

 

Also yeah, I loved it!

 

And about the "Inception"/Music thing... That makes a lot of sense! Thanks!
