John Marshall's painting about the figure, what Italian violist and composer Giuseppe Tartini (1692-1770) claimed to see in a dream. This figure played the composition, what is known as the Devil's Sonata. This story is one of the most incredible tales about things, what people see in dreams. I think that Marshall took the image of the red-skinned devil from the medieval paintings and the story has told about the case, that one composer claimed that devil has taught one of the greatest compositions,  made to him. The story, about the devil, who sits on the bed at the next of Tartini, and played the violin, is the thing, what made Tartini very scary. One remarkable thing is, that this man remembers the dream in the morning because the memory has been shut down during the sleep.

So there were suspicious that somebody was really sitting on the bed of this composer. Many people don't even remember, what they saw while dreaming, and one thing is sure. Humans are most creative while sleeping. The reason, why memory is cut off while sleeping is that this thing releases all brain capacity for the creative work, but the thing, that we cannot remember our dreams makes the investigation of dreams very problematic. There have been used EEG-machines and another kind of systems to investigate things, what is happening during the dreams.

But those machines tell only, about the physiology of dreams. And the things, what people see while sleeping remains silent. The situation is similar than we would investigate some film, and the methods what we would use are only chemical analysis. Soon we would know exactly the chemical combinations, what was used to make that film. But the most important thing has been forgotten. What was stored in that film? When we are thinking about Tartini's relationship with dreams, also many other composers have claimed to hear their compositions in sleep. But one thing is quite interesting. How they could remember the things, what happened during sleep?

Image above: The Damsel of the Sanct Grael by Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1874) (Wikipedia, Holy Grail) The image above portrays the lady. Lady keeps the Holy Gail in her hand. And there is a bird behind that lady. The bird carries some ball, and that causes an idea. That maybe the Holy Grail was two-part merchandise. The human has the cup, and then. Some unknown thing brings the activator. So, the Holy Grail requires two parts. The cup and the activator. And in stories, the Holy Grail is ineffective without that activator.   And if we think freely, that activator can be the ball, there is forming a miniature black hole when the lightning hits that thing. Or maybe the electric shock drives DNA to the person who keeps the Holy Grail in their hands. The high-power electric shock that the electric eel makes can transfer genomes from one species to another. And that makes Holy Grail interesting.  There is lots of fiction and almost fact about the Holy Grail. Somebody said that the Holy Grail w

Minimal space is an inspiring thing.

An empty, or minimal space is a thing that can form interesting ideas. That means empty rooms and a couple of merchandise can be a very inspiring thing.
