Before using AI or LLMs, handwrite your dream as a sprawling mind-map. Sketch its imagery. Note emotions. Link ideas freely: mine connect to occult, esoteric, and alchemical texts, plus art history/science. Keep your brain’s connections sharp/active. Turn to AI only if needed.
AI/LLMs may cut brain engagement, so I handwrite dream notes to spark sensorimotor areas. Draw dream symbol mind maps to boost visual-parietal links. Question AI outputs to fire up critical thinking. Chat with humans to strengthen frontal lobe connections. Keeps our brains sharp.
Final research symposium at #IASD2025 yesterday, @KatjaValli @UniTurku @UNIofSkovde @KNF_Skovde presented content analysis data on dreams of WW2 British prisoners of war in Germany. @DreamScholars International Association for the Study of Dreams 42nd annual conference.
Painted in our dream salon at #IASD2025, dream of taking from a box two joined crystal balls, with living spider & bugs inside. Discussion was very thoughtful & warm; wonderful dream & painting. @DreamScholars IASD 42nd annual conference. dreamsid.com/gallery-of-dre…
Saw @Mark_Blagrove lead an Ullman dreamwork group as @Prof_Lockheart painted the chosen dream live. A page from Freud's The Interpretation of Dreams (used as a found object) mirrored dream imagery with uncanny synchronicity, each word reflecting the dreamer by meaningful chance!

Just finished a @dreamsid workshop at #iasd2025 @DreamScholars. Such an amazing dream. 🙏 to all who attended.
Word of the day is ‘immiseration’: the act of making people progressively more miserable.
Great talk by Erin Wamsley @FurmanU at the 42nd annual International Association for the Study of Dreams conference today. On whether dream content is related to memory consolidation during sleep. #IASD2025 @DreamScholars
