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.

Fast Beat

Rapid Eye Movement Graph Heartbeat
The blinks were too weak to activate the audio track, but the heartbeat reading is very clear throughout the entire recording. 16 REM blinks can be seen in the featured minute along with 74 heartbeats – much faster than usual.

Rapid Eye Movement Chart Lucid Dream

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.

Too Loud

Rapid Eye Movement Dream

Six blinks can be seen before the audio track played, but I couldn’t contain myself and woke up. The latest version of Lucid Scribe now shows which track was played and makes navigating to the detected REM periods easier.

Eye Movement Types

Rapid Eye Movement Types
There are two distinct classes of eye movements that I have been observing. There are the solid blinks, five of which can be seen in the first twenty seconds of the minute above, that peak for over a thousand milliseconds. 

Then there are the twitches, six of which can be seen in the second half, that barely last a hundred milliseconds. I suspect that some are lost because the resolution (10 FPS) is too low; there was probably one before and one after the four twitches in the middle.

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 during a Dream.
The track played within a minute of the onset of REM – after 8 blinks, and the dream lasted for almost 3 minutes, although the effect of the anthem is not noticeable on the eye movements.
