Wake Initiated Lucid Dream
I went to bed very late and started dreaming exactly ten minutes after I lay down. The track played a minute into the dream which continued for another 3 minutes. 13 blinks can be seen in the minute above before the track played. 

Preparation: chewed a few Calea leaves four hours earlier.

Six blinks can be seen again before the audio track played and induced a few seconds of lucidity. Another track played an hour and twenty minutes later when the next REM phase was detected and I was able to remain airborne for almost a minute.

REM Lucid Dream
I became lucid naturally, the old-fashioned way. So when the track played the euphoria and confidence doubled. But I flew too high too fast and the dream started fading very quickly. 

Three blinks can be seen before the anthem, then some strained eye movements followed by another four blinks.

REM Sleep Interrupted
The track woke me up and ended the dream that it detected rather abruptly as can be seen after the eight blinks above. I did, however, manage to remain completely still and awake for the next 10 minutes until the hallucinations started again. 

Although I was focusing on the end of the dream and thinking through all the things that I would have done differently with more awareness, I simply started seeing the room I was in through closed eyes. There were things that I knew could not be there and I was able to get up ever so slowly and set out on an epic adventure.

Good Timing

Rapid Eye Movement Graph
There were three brief occurances of REM onset that all ended abruptly. The track played a minute into the fourth and induced lucidity in the dream that ended naturally after 10 minutes.

Rapid Eye Movement - Music in a Dream
The anthem played twice again but the effect was only noticeable on the eye movements the first time it played although I made a note in the dream to finally write the playlist function when it played the second time.

Awake in a Dream
The track played twice and it was quite something to hear it start while I was already lucid. Now that I can export to video and even HD (coming soon to most entries) the very next feature that I need to finish coding is the ability to manage playlists…

Lucid Dreaming Rapid Eye Movement
A classic example of the process squezed into a single minute; vibrations for 10 seconds, 10 rapid eye movements over the course of 30 seconds and lucidity triggered by the track for 20 seconds. All in a night’s work.

Lucid Dreaming
I experimented with a slightly different position of the sensors in the halograph. Although the eye movements are a lot weaker than normal, they were luckily just strong enough for the algorithm to detect. 12 blinks can be seen in the minute above when the track was almost seamlessly integrated into the dream.

Earthquake

REM Detector
I started dreaming at 0243, became lucid at 0244 (pictured above) and removed the halograph at 0259 at the end of the dream. A very strange wave-like pattern can be seen in the hourly overview starting at 0306 and ending at 0706. This was recorded while idling on the bedpost. An earthquake, perhaps, thousands of miles from the Ring of Fire?
