Memory and Inscription

The Missed Conversation August 15, 2025 Bettina Bergo

Abstract This chapter explores Husserl’s innovative conception of immanent time in three parts: retention, now-moments, and protention. It explains his advance relative to Brentano’s conception of time and memory being the result of “productive imagination.” Early on, it demonstrates that sensation, welling up from the body, both accounted for our feeling of temporal flow and depended on that...

Are We Asking the Right Questions? Sex Specificity of Dream Characteristics in Probable Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice August 15, 2025 Samantha Bramich, Alastair J. Noyce, Laura Pérez-carbonell et al. 1 citation

Abstract Background Dream enactment behavior is a common feature of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep behavior disorder (RBD); however, there has been surprisingly little focus on sex differences in dream characterization in RBD. This is important to evaluate further, as it is possible that females and males have different dream characteristics in RBD, and screening questionnaires that focus on...

A dream EEG and mentation database.

Nature Communications August 13, 2025 William Wong, Rubén Herzog, Kátia Cristine Andrade et al. 10 citations

Magneto/electroencephalography (M/EEG) studies of dreaming are an essential paradigm in the investigation of neurocognitive processes of human consciousness during sleep, but they are limited by the number of observations that can be collected per study. Dream research also involves substantial methodological and conceptual variability, which poses problems for the integration of results. To...

Anthropology of Consciousness August 11, 2025 Yoshio Watanabe

ABSTRACT Healers of the Shipibo, known as onayas , reside in Eastern Peru and build relationships with plant spirits through dreams seen during a training process called samá . Since they comprehend the process of building relationships with plant spirits by interpreting their dreams, dream interpretation serves as the medium through which the onayas learn how to build relationships with plant...

Salvador Dalí’s Liquid and Gaseous Television a Mystical and Wireless Dream

VIEW Journal of European Television History and Culture August 7, 2025 Anna Luigia de Simone

How can you reach the sky? For Salvador Dalí, just turn on your TV. That is, the Liquid and Gaseous Television: one of his inventions (1975) turning TV into a vehicle for cosmic voyages that allow man to communicate with the universe. Perhaps even with God. This device needs no wires. In it, communicative and transcendental horizons converge, updating the surrealist techniques of activating the...

Prevalence of spiritual and religious experiences in the general population: A Brazilian nationwide study.

Transcultural Psychiatry August 1, 2025 Maria Cristina Monteiro de Barros, Frederico Camelo Leão, Homero Vallada Filho et al.

Spiritual and religious experiences (SREs) are common subjective phenomena related to the awareness of transcendence, which transforms one's perception of life, death and suffering. Despite the high prevalence of SREs worldwide, not enough studies have been conducted beyond Europe and North America. To fill this gap, this study investigates the prevalence of SREs in Brazil and their association...

Molecular Pathways Potentially Involved in Hallucinatory Experiences During Sleep Paralysis: The Emerging Role of β-Arrestin-2

International Journal of Molecular Sciences July 26, 2025 Lena M. Rudy, Michał M. Godlewski 2 citations

Sleep paralysis (SP), an REM parasomnia, can be characterized as one of the symptoms of narcolepsy. The SP phenomenon involves regaining meta-consciousness by the dreamer during REM, when the physiological atonia of skeletal muscles is accompanied by visual and auditory hallucinations that are perceived as vivid and distressing nightmares. Sensory impressions include personification of an...

Dreams are more “predictable” than you think

Frontiers in Sleep July 23, 2025 Lorenzo Bertolini, Sergio Consoli, Julie Weeds 2 citations

Introduction: A growing body of work has used machine learning and AI tools to analyse dream reports, and compare them to other textual content. Since these tools are usually trained on text from the web, researchers have speculated they might not be suited to model dreams reports, often labeled as "unusual" and "bizarre" content. Methods: We used a set of large language models (LLMs) to encode...
