In a Grammar of Dreams, David Foulkes in 1978 wrote:
Dreaming must be seen as something more than anomalous perceiving. It is a human conceptual achievement of the first magnitude, & one of the core problems of cognitive psychology. Dreaming needs once again, as it was by Freud, to be recognized as a problem so central to the study of the mind that its resolution can help to reveal the fundamental structures of human thought.
If we suddenly woke up within our sleep, what would it look like? Our normal dream states are often story-based, yet many participants in the innerdance share the indescribability of what our Sleep Unconscious might see, if it tried to describe the experience to our Wake Consciousness.
From what we have explored in White, Red and Orange so far, dimensionalities shift between Content, Context and Code where stories in the linear sense are two dimensional. Contextual connections are three dimensional. Code, to the bewildered mind, lays at the wide expanse of the Tessaract, as it is dramatized in Cristopher Nolan's Interstellar.

When people in the innerdance process share, "I fell asleep during the process," they also often relate that the Sleep they mention isn't exactly just a dark place filled with nothing.
Traditionally, Dream is regarded from the Received View, a theory of Dream that posits (as per Descartes and Freud), we live out our repressed narratives in escapist slumber.
Today, scientists and philosophers realize, the Sleep Stages may not host the same linear interpretive experiences Wake Consciousness live through.

When Caroline shares - "It’s happening at a point when I’m asleep but aware. The energy is full of insight and information I could comprehend. It felt as if I was in dialogue with it mentally and physically and my body felt so alive and awake yet I was asleep and I knew I was asleep." - she is able to retrieve Code from conscious awareness what most people fail to maintain in Wake States, which deal in Context and Content.
Code and Context are terms used by the Russian Linguist Roman Jakobson to reveal two types of Aphasias, which also correspond to two types of Epileptic Seizures (Tonic-Clonic and Absence Seizures).
Code is the place where all Contexts and Content meet. What we call Sleep is demystified in the current awakening process. In the innerdance, such experiences arise in shifts in the music, as certain playlists awaken stories, while certain sound processes bring about experiences Caroline tries to describe.

One innovative Theory of Dream (proposed by Professor Daniel Dennett) considers that our dreams are pre-loaded narratives encoded in the unconscious. Dennett calls this the Cassette Theory of Dream.
The Cassette Theory explains that, when we wake up, we snatch interpretive narratives at the moment of retrieving Content and Contexts from a much larger library of Cassettes, a 4 or 5-dimensional Tessaract of information. To Dennett, Dreams are false narratives, which are not really what we see when asleep. To Dennett, we do not experience anything in a linear consciousness during sleep stages.
The changing innerdance contexts supports the notion that not only are we beginning to experience Wakeful REM, we are also coming to awareness of non-REM Wake States.
Those who shift from Wakeful REM to Wakeful Non-REM move from 3-dimensional definitions of Dream Time, towards the 4th and 5th dimensional Tessaract and Hypercube descriptions of life.

Such is the current Brain that undergoes changes now. The Dream as we know it, mediates Sleep and Wake, respectively, Code and Context as well as Space and Time. In the following video, Marie meditates on the different movements in Yellow, from her apt metaphor of the butterfly's stages of metamorphosis and transformation. The innerdance is our very movement from Code and Context, bringing Dream reality into careful consideration. |
