Blogpost #6: Lucid Dreaming and the Inception

           Having a lucid dreaming means a lot for other people, because somehow, lucid dreaming is a kind of living entertainment to all who do it. Because there you have two roles, one is the writer who acts like an architect of the whole story and the other one is being the main actor of the scene. It is like the a mainstream class-A movie for all those people who experience it.

         In our generation today, lucid dreaming raise it's concept not only for those people who are interested to it. It also one of those concept in some movies in our industry. Some of them have the box office rated because of those effects that given and the uniqueness of the story. One of those movies is the Inception. Inception is kind of movie which is related to the concept of lucid dreaming. It is somehow define the concept of being lucid in a dream. Here are some articles that I'd read for the topic.

           According to a news editor named as Rowan Hooper, in his article "Inception: Peering into the Science of Dreams" in the website of newscientist.com. Some of those thing in the movie of Inception were related and inspired by the concept of lucid dreaming. Aside from that he also state that it lies between those previous movies, James Bond film and The Matrix Trilogy. He also relate some informal laws that lucid dreaming and Inception has.

          As for my opinion fro that article, I can say that this kind of movie is well prepared for the story, because they not only do that but they also made a research that somehow when the audience will it and has a thing that we will never forget and get confused on and do some research to know it better.

          One of Rowan Hooper statements that I agreed with, "Dreams follow some "real life" rules". That dream is always a part of our life and like real life too, it also need some rules, rules that from the real world rules. Somehow, we can say that things in lucid dreaming has a connection between the real world.

         Another article I read was entitled, "What is Inception Really About?" by Damian Nordmann in the website som.org that in every words that has a connection between the two, which are Inception and Lucid Dreaming. Other from that, he also discuss how powerful our subconscious is and what is the meaning of being a dead person in a lucid dream.

         The article was great because he actually explains how those concept which relate to our topic, lucid dreaming, applied in the movie, Inception. And I realize that lucid dreaming is like an over acting reference book of the real life because of some points that those two have in common.

        One of Mr.Damian Nordmann statements got my attention is, "Dreams are experiences in the subconscious mind that we have each night when we sleep.". Meaning those dreams that we got every night come from our subconscious mind that's why it is in the dreamland than in the waking state like in the Inception.

          I conclude that Inception reveals some iceberg of lucid dreaming but just like in the movies. Movies is just an iceberg from the whole story of it's book. But even though people have information about lucid dreaming, it won't be able to open the mysticism of the lucid dreaming.
