dreamers by way of The Ernest Hartmann Student Awards, the IASD Dream

Donate Now by Clicking Here CALL FOR ARTISTS TO PARTICIPATE IN DREAM BOOK DEADLINE DECEMBER 31 IASD is currently involved in the creation of books on dreams and we wanted to provide a chance for our IASD Arts community to participate. Dreams: A Tutorial Reference (tentative title) – deadline is December 31, 2016 – will examine all aspects of dreaming, from science and psychology to culture and the arts. To understand how art is typically used in therapy and as inspiration from dreams, we are surveying our IASD artist community, the results of which will be summarized and compiled into two separate chapters. The survey asks for short summaries from our artists as to how they use art in one or both of these ways and what process they go through. If you are interested in your work being mentioned or featured in either of these areas click here and complete the forms there. SUPPORT IASD WITH A SMILE Would you like to continue to support IASD?

Foundations of Mind at UC Berkeley is a serious group of neuroscientists,
biologists, quantum physicists, philosophers and consciousness researchers
in related fields. Their overarching interest is cognitive science from the
neural, informational, metabolic and phenomenal levels. WEBB EXPLORES THE POWER OF DREAMS AND MUSIC During four recent media interviews/presentations across the nation, Craig Webb shared how little-known dreams guided the well-known public figures from his new book The Dreams Behind the Music: Learn Creative Dreaming as 100+ Top Artists Reveal their Breakthrough Inspirations, including powerful creative dreams, lucid dreams, and warning dreams.
In this issue of Hot Off the Press we will be
focusing on flying dreams. The intention of this column is to publish
links to evidence-based scientific articles on the study of dreams that
are written for a non-research audience.
