Can you control what you dream?

Scientists have begun a study to see if it is possible to influence what we dream about.

They have designed a smartphone app which plays sounds such as birds in woodland or waves lapping against the shore.

The idea is that the noises should direct pleasant dreaming.

Prof Richard Wiseman, who is launching the trial as part of the Edinburgh International Science Festival, wants thousands of people to take part.

Rather than recruiting people directly, the 'mass participation' trial relies on members of the public volunteering.

The sounds are played around 20 minutes before participants say they want to wake up.

The Dream:ON app monitors movements to sense when the sleeper has started dreaming. It then plays the sounds.

If that is true, then what kind of dreams will occur if the smartphone app plays sounds from a porno?

Sure is possible to control what you dream, been doing it for years. Useful in unpleasant dreams, it is a dream after, you just have to know that it is a dream, and its your dream......called lucid dreaming, but I have never tried to dream about specific stuff, never did any of the stuff they tell you to. I have only done it to alter a dream I am already having, make bad things smaller, make a weapon appear, change directions, whatever. I have pretty crazy dreams, a lifetime of science fiction and fantasy reading, I suppose Failing to control it, knowing it's a dream lets you "punch out" so to speak, and wake up.
