Not too long ago, I was dreaming I was reading a newspaper. I
was in the process of doing so when I realised that this was a lucid
dream, and I started to be impressed by the amount of detail.
I immediately became really interested in the newspaper (I
already knew what it was about, it was relevant to the main theme of the
dream), but I wanted to see if I had dreamed a page of text.
I tried to read it really carefully, but it came out as
gibberish, from memory the words were all twisting and the letters made
no sense. They were grouped so it looked real, but it didnt say anything..

Anyone else closely scrutinised a dream object after
realising that it is a dream object?

This is really interesting. The dada movement in art, which branched
of the surrealist movement-- which was an art movement studying the
subconsious and dream images (you follow that? hehehe),,, hmmm I will
start over...
Many of the dada artists would take newspaper clippings and cut
them into little bits, and then rearrange them so they looked like words,
but they weren't. If you get a book of dada, your newspaper and a few books
like this will be there! Kinda neat huh?

Sometimes I do, like in my last dream I posted here-- I stared
at a gate for "hours" marvelling the detail. Most of the time, I must
admit, the small objects in my dream, I study them no more than I would
study my house keys. Perhaps I would find out more in a dream if I
looked a little closer. hmmmm...
