Neuroscientists say that it's possible to engineer dreams.

“A powerful way to investigate memory consolidation during sleep utilizes acoustic stimulation to reactivate memories. In multiple studies, Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) using sounds associated with prior learning improved later memory, as in recalling locations where objects previously appeared.” (APAPsycNet, Targeted memory reactivation during sleep to strengthen memory for arbitrary pairings). 

Reseachers say that the purpose of dreams is to analyze things that happened during the daytime, or wake-up time. Friedrich August Kekulé von Stradonitz (1829 – 1896) was the chemist who uncovered. The structure of benzene. Saw in a dream. Where the snake. To bite its tail. When he woke up, Kekulé von Stradonitz realized that benzene is composed of a ring of carbon atoms. Same way. Compositors are seen. When a devil or angel. Who played some composition. In dreams. 

The most well-known case is the case of Giuseppe Tartini (1692–1770), who saw. The devil played violin in his dreams, and then Tartini created his Devil's Trill Sonata by following. The things that he saw in his dreams. 

Those things support the theory that dreams are made. For solving problems. The problem with the dream analysis is that people don’t remember their dreams. But. A technology called targeted memory reactivation (TMR). The TMR uses acoustic waves to activate memory blocks after sleep. The opposite system is TMD, targeted memory deactivator. TMD deactivates memory. 

That system might. Help people. To remember their dreams. The TMR technology has uncovered that.

 “Seventy-five percent of participants reported dreams that contained elements related to the unsolved puzzles. Problems that appeared in dreams were later solved at a much higher rate than those that did not (42% vs 17%)”. (ScitechDaily, Can You Engineer a Dream? Neuroscientists Say Yes – and It Boosts Creativity) 

"Tartini's Dream" by Louis-Léopold Boilly (1761-1845). Illustration of the legend behind Giuseppe Tartini's "Devil's Trill Sonata". Caption: TARTINI'S DREAM. It is said that Tartini saw in a dream the Devil who offered him his services, and that, at his command, he performed a sonata on the violin, which Tartini had never heard before and which he tried to recall upon waking. He then composed that singular sonata that is still known today under the name of the Devil's Sonata.” (Wikipedia, Devil's Trill Sonata)

That means that dreams are meant to solve problems. Or they can help to solve them. The ability to send information into human brains just before people sleep. It can make people more productive. Maybe, things like AI can someday turn our dreams into mode. That we could project them on the computer screen. Things. Like a brain-computer interface, BCI systems. Which can also. Connect human creativity. Into a model that the AI can control and use in its training. The problem is how to send the right information. Into the brain. In the right moment. 

The BCI can also read those things from the electrodes or brain implants. The ability to control dreams makes people more creative. Or, the problem is. How we remember things. That we saw while we sleep. “Targeted Memory Reactivation (TMR) is a noninvasive technique from cognitive neuroscience that allows researchers to selectively influence which recent memories are strengthened during sleep. The method is based on the brain’s natural process of consolidating memories while a person is resting”. (Biologyinsights, How Targeted Memory Reactivation Works and Its Uses)

Do you notice the double-image in this picture?

Above the text is an image, what is drawn by artist Patrick Reilly. The image is about the fictional shipwreck in some planet, what is far away from the Earth. This image hides also the double-effect because this kind of picture or object in the picture also looks like some kind of cannon. So when we are thinking about the art and drawings, there is something, what makes the image inside the artists head, and when we are thinking about sci-fi art, there are many times very militaristic things in those pictures. In the last text, what I wrote is a picture above it. When we are thinking about that propaganda poster, there are many interesting details, what I was not mentioned. Link to that picture is here: https://imginationsasnthoughts.blogspot.com/2018/12/somebody-is-watching-theme-in-sci-fi-art.html

The person who stands on the left side seems, that this action would not be done voluntary, and the other man seems to show the things of the space station and the spaceship at the front of it for the other person by using force. The spacecraft looks like a nuclear weapon, where is the chemical laser in the middle of it, and then the acetylene lamps would start to pump energy to that device.

At the top will be the tank, what is filled with Lithium, and when the laser will hit it, or to the small bite of plutonium, would it start the fusion reaction. This kind of base could also be the underwater position, and it can locate at the near of the Novaja Zemlja. When we are thinking about this kind of paintings or the bases, what they would portray, the similar technology, what is developed for space stations would also be used in the special underwater structures.

The extraordinary people, who are making extraordinary things, need an extraordinary workspace. In fact if the thing is about the underwater developing center, would that atom bomb used for terminating those scientists and engineers, who are working in the station, what would be used to create the most interesting military technology, would be controlled by using that kind of threat. The window actually seems like equipped with similar explosives what are used in the fighter-aircraft. And they can be exploded if somebody would try to rebel against the government. There are rumors, that this kind of bases actually exists, and the persons, who are working in there are specially secured, what means, that their skins might be sterilized.
