dream log: mostly mundane, like i was slacking at home, just in a dseam. o3ten notice a spinnimg rushing sensation as i fall aslefp. last night this was to quake scenery.
As I fall asleep (thanks for the link!). It is very much like tripping, when you close your eyes and you don't actually get hallucinations as such, but you do get battered with a procession of images. Except in this (let's call it) hypnagogic state, it's generally me moving rather than the images.
It's probably hypnagogic imagery, but you experience it very differently than I. For me it's a procession of images as you say, like closed-eye visuals while tripping. What you experience sounds really neat, in comparison!
Heh - blame a tripped-out childhood and slightly damaged inner ears :) Together they make it very easy to imagine that it's me that's still and everything else that's moving - I get something similar to vertigo with fast moving water.
And yeah - it is quite cool. Reminds me of this little film they used to show on TV loads when I was a kid, where they travel round the coast of Britain in like, two minutes or something. I read a book about it later (but not travelling in two minutes!), so I suppose it got reinforced somehow.
