In dreams, I walk with you……

In dreams, I walk with you……

(Dontcha just love Roy Orbison?) Just read this blog post about dreaming about SL in RL.  This is something I’ve done a few times but each time I’ve woken up and gone ‘WOW!’.  I have relatively good dream recall coming to think of it, and my dreams have always been of the technicolour big screen variety. My most vivid one was just before Christmas, where I was flying around the metaverse as my RL self, but a psychedelic version of me.  In fact, everything around me was as though it was real, physical and tangible BUT rendered in a SL style.  It’s hard to describe, but if you’ve ever experienced it then you’ll know exactly what I mean.  I also use a trick when I’m having trouble sleeping..I walk around my SL house, or recount walking around some of the beautiful places in world.  It’s amazing how well I can recreate these places in my minds eye.  That could be partly due to training I’ve had in visualisation techniques as part of my RL Witchery, but it’s astounding nonetheless.  When you can immerse yourself completely in the world to the point where you can make yourself feel the virtual warmth coming from your fireplace then you know you’ve got either an exceptionally vivid imagination, or you are completely mad:) I go for the former, although it’s probably the latter that is true:) Either way I can do it very well..which kind of enhances the experience of being in a virtual world somewhat. I wondered if many of you do that too?   Have you found that using Windlight has meant that your virtual experience has become more intense? Be interested to see what you have to say on the subject.

Anyway-must dash.  New..shoes..at..TESLA!

  1. You are very right about the vivid imagination . people with a vivid imagination have a (too) good time in sl :))
    But to answer your question , i think if graphics would improve drastically , lag is totally gone. it wouldn’t make the sl experience less intense thats for sure.

  2. Mad is a rude name for those with vivid imagination. 🙂 I am glad to hear I am not the only one that use that method of getting asleep.
    While I enjoyed nice SL sunsets even before WindLight rippled reflections on the water is a great thing for the experience. Not to mention that client is faster and more stable.
