Question

Oculus Rift & Vivid Dreams

Hey guys!

Just got my Rift yesterday and have been lugging it around everywhere I go showing off some of the demos on my laptop. The reactions are overall pretty positive and can't wait to start getting my hands a little dirty working on it. (Probably when things calm down at work...)

I did have an observation though and I was wondering if anyone else had noticed it.

Now you have to understand, I don't remember the last time I had a dream. My job is pretty fun but very routine and after playing in the Rift for only about 30 minutes (all I could manage before I started feeling a little unwell) I had a night full of crazy detailed dreams that I can actually recall.

Anyone else notice a difference in their sleep?

    When I go on diets I eat huge bowls of cereal or ice cream in my lucid dreams. It feels like cheating but it's not. :lol:



    Lol, I do this too, and with Ice cream as well, weird, I wonder if ice cream represents the subconscious archetype of gluttonous hunger...

    We should co-author a book called "The Lucid Dreamers Diet." If we can get Oprah to use it and put it on her show we could make millions. :lol:

    I just found this thread after googling oculus rift and dreams because every night since i first got the rift ive had vivid dreams. Sometimes i can remember about 3 hours of dream content when I wake up, i haven't lucid dreamed yet but i also havent attempted to, a while back (1 year) when i was trying to I pulled off a 30 second one.
