Nancy J.Young, Janice Hill As college instructors of English/Psychology 2700:Writing and Dreams, working with traditional and CE undergraduates, we will share some of the challenges and successes of developing and teaching this course at a small college with a significant population of LD students. Students from our Spring courses will add their perspectives.
DREAMWORK CE
CULTURES OF DREAMING
Robert Bosnak While dreaming we are in an environment we experience as entirely real. Upon awakening we call these experiences dreams and enter them into the cultural vernacular which surrounds us, be it the culture of our country, ethnicity, temperament, or professional and philosophical affiliation, e.g., science, art or therapy. I will review results of a dream incubation experiment in the paleolithic Cro-Magnon caves in France, and look at them from a cultural perspective.

Shaman Dreams of Power for Teaching Dreamwork
Maria Volchenko The paper presents the results of a long-term experience in the use of the author’s dreams of power as guided meditations aimed to empower visualization skills of dream seminar students. Dreams of power are a natural consequence of shamanic initiation rituals, and the use of a shamanic approach in personal dreamwork.
SHOCK WAVES: EFFECTS OF A STROKE ON SLEEP AND DREAMS
Allan Hobson One of the ways that the brain-mind interface can be studied is to examine the effects of stroke upon sleep and dreams.As Mark Solms has shown, there are certain brain regions which are critical for dreaming and when they are damaged dreaming is eliminated or altered. But dream research has so far done little to pursue this paradigm and to use it to further explore this neurogenesis.This report of the author’s recent experience with a lateral medullary infarct is meant to sound a clarion call to the scientific community regarding this paradigm and the theoretical and empirical issues that are involved in its pursuit.
11:30 AM–1:30 PM LUNCH
Collective Heart Dreams: Inner Guidance in Dissociative Identity Disorder
Sarah Krakauer An innovative new model for the treatment of Dissociative Identity Disorder emphasizes techniques for mobilizing inner guidance.The Collective Heart model is illustrated by a clinical case in which a series of dreams illuminates the etiology of the disorder, the current dynamics, and directions for healing.
Sunday · June Dream Analysis in the Treatment of Dissociative Disorders
Monica B. Tiscione Dissociative Disorders result from childhood trauma.The traumatized child copes with overwhelming fear and helplessness by compartmentalizing traumatic memories, and limiting their accessibility to consciousness. One important part of the treatment of dissociative disorders involves the reprocessing of traumatic memories.This paper will describe how dream analysis can be effectively used in the psychotherapy of patients presenting dissociative disorders.

RESEARCHING BIG DREAMS, THEIR CORRELATES, AND THEIR EFFECTS Significant Dreams and the Construction of Autobiographical Narrative
Roger M. Knudson This paper integrates the literature on autobiographical narrative, personal event memory, and significant dreams leading to a discussion of the role of significant dreams in the construction of the dreamer’s life story.A set of dreams is presented in support of the argument.
The Alchemy of Sound in Working with Dream Images
Sven Doehner Becoming sensitive to sound in dreamwork, by making conscious our experience of it, offers an experiential mirror for reflecting unconscious aspects of our dream images.Working alchemically with the sounds that emerge from our dreams allows for the appearance and experience of something not yet known, and for the opening of different perspectives in our relationship to our images.
Significant Dreams of First-Year College Students
Megan L. Nordquest, Roger M. Knudson This paper will discuss dreams of first-year students experiencing the life transitions associated with beginning college.These dreams may reflect changes of thinking, questioning of the surrounding world as well as call attention to individual “callings. ” Exemplary dreams will be presented with the discussion.
Significant Dreams and Transpersonal Awareness
Matthew S. Allen, Roger M. Knudson This paper reviews the literature on significant dreams and transpersonal states of awareness.An attempt is made to examine the role of significant dreams in the development of transpersonal awareness. Reference will be made to dreams provided by research participants.
Fairy Tales as a Dream Text Book
Maria Volchenko There are fairy tales about a dreamer’s adventures.These tales are a valuable source of information about different traditions of dream tuning rituals, creative dream realization, and dream interpretation. Each fairy tale is a hero’s journey, and the hero is a dreamer.There are interesting intersections of dream plots from different cultures.
Neuropsychological Correlates of Big Dreams
Kelly Bulkeley This presentation will present preliminary findings from a research project on highly memorable dreams, and will discuss the possible neuropsychological correlates of these unusual types of dreams.The chief argument will be that “big dreams” ( Jung’s phrase) represent distinctive modes of neural activation that differ in significant ways from ordinary dreaming.

The Dream in the Individuation Process in Group Analysis
Manlio Caporali This presentation will focus on the analysis of oneiric data reported by five patients treated with group analysis over a period of five years.The dreams were analyzed across time in the single individual and in the group viewed as a whole.The findings suggest that dreams can be a reliable and valid indicator of individual development as framed within the evolution of the group as a whole.
The Psychology of Adoption: The Dream Landscape
Robert M. Childs The psychology of adoption will be explored through the mapping of dreams that occurred during the search and reunion experiences of adult adoptees. Because there is an inherent regression constellated through search and reunion, the potential for transformative experience will also be highlighted.

THE BENEFITS OF DREAM RESTAGING IN PSYCHOTHERAPY: FINDING THE LESSON, THE MESSAGE AND THE GIFT
Ann Sayre Wiseman Dream Restaging affords the dreamer a three-dimensional way to explore the message of a dream, a message of enlightenment. Assuming what we see is always filtered through the mirror of our own projections, Restaging affords a better more clarifying way to observe the self from the outside as we become ready to interpret and integrate the metaphor.This allows the dreamer to test alternative solutions and renegotiate the outcome of a problem to suit the dreamer’s satisfaction.

An Analysis of Dreams Told by Persons Going Through Retirement
Fabian Ramseyer, Arthur T. Funkhouser, Othmar Würmle, Karin Carnes, Peter Locher, Marcel Bahro The contents of dreams collected by means of weekly telephone calls in subjects undergoing retirement were analyzed.The analysis rests upon a specially designed category system and specific “screening-questions” employed for each dream told.This paper also compares the collected dreams with competing contemporary functional dream theories.

Peter Locher, Arthur T. Funkhouser, Othmar Würmle, Karin Carnes, Fabian Ramseyer, Marcel Bahro The dreams of 33 subjects participating in the Bern “DreamTelling and Retirement” study have been collected and divided into two broad overlapping categories: archetypal dreams and non-archetypal dreams. In a second step specific dream-content patterns for each of these categories were delineated.

Systematic Findings with a Dream Journal: How ASD Members Can Work Together to Advance Dream Research
G. William Domhoff This paper presents the detailed findings from a Hall/Van de Castle study of 3,100 dreams from an adult woman over a 25year period. It shows there is consistency in her dreams and continuity with waking concerns, but also material that may lack meaning.
EXPLORING THE TRANSFORMATIVE ROLE OF SOUND IN WORKING ALCHEMICALLY WITH DREAMS (PART 1)

Erotic and Affectionate Feelings for Dream Characters
David Kahn We investigated the statistical dependence between eroticism and other feelings towards dream characters reported by 35 subjects. We found a significant statistical dependence between eroticism and affection.We hope to compare the results to a recent, ongoing study that is examining interdependencies between sexual experience and dimensions that include intentions, feelings, beliefs, memories, spiritual connections and life changes,
Personality Correlates of Dream and Nightmare Recall Frequency
Mark Blagrove, Jenny Clark, and Bethan Rees Boundariness is known to be a correlate of dream recall frequency, and to be correlated with the widely used personality measure of openness.We found that boundariness and openness both correlate significantly with frequency of dream recall, but that frequency of nightmare recall correlates only with boundariness.
EMBODYING THE DREAM: DISCOVERING THE DREAM IN THE BODY
Laurel McCabe This workshop presents techniques for working with the dream in the body.We begin with body-awareness and centering techniques. In the dreamwork, we pay attention to our body-mindemotion experiences.The archetypal energies of the dream move through dreamer and group members to provide psychological shifts and new awareness and healing.

Psychoanalysis, once the natural home for dreams and the unconscious, also seems to have lost passion for the “flowers of the night,” and pursues other interests.This panel, a report from the minority within psychoanalysis, suggests that we not join the general culture in abandoning an interest in dreams, and that we find creative ways to return to the dream for clinical and theoretical inspiration.

It soon became clear that several members brought dreams to the weekend that reflected their dream efforts to assimilate and integrate the events of September 11th and the following weeks. In this panel, members will discuss the experience of entering the terror-laden dream space of another, and the creative transformations those dreams produced.

DREAM GUIDANCE: A SPIRITUAL LIFELINE FOR THESE TROUBLED TIMES
Rita Dwyer, Carol D. Warner Since the terrorist attacks of September 11th, there has been a renewed focus on spirituality. Dreams can be a valuable tool for connecting us at a soul level with our higher self and with God/Spirit.We’ll first look at the different forms that spirit can take in dreams and then provide tools, time and guidance for working with a recent dream to “divine” its spiritual message.
4:15 PM–6:00 PM WORKSHOP EATON 201
Drugs That Induce Nightmares
James Pagel This study integrates textbook pharmacological data with a meta-analysis of recent clinical trials and case reports of drugs reported to induce nightmares. In most cases, the medications reported to induce nightmares can be characterized into the following groups: (1) drugs affecting domamine, serotonin, norepinephrine or acetylcholine neurotransmitters, (2) drugs affecting immunologic/infectious response, or (3) drugs altering conscious awareness.
PRACTICAL DREAMWORK (PART 1)
Robert Bosnak Practical dreamwork is based on principles first developed by Jung in his work on alchemy. By using a variety of body oriented techniques, practical dreamwork allows the dreamer to flashback into the dream experience and relive the dream in a hypnogogic state of consciousness. By working on dreams in this way, personal as well as archetypal, emotional and physical elements are uncovered.This technique has been used in psychotherapy, psychosomatics and in work with patients suffering from severe physical illness. It has also been used effectively to enhance the work of actors, directors, visual artists and writers.
The Effect of Everyday Stress on Dream Content
Michael Schredl Research has shown that the effect of experimental stress on dream content is rather small. More promising is the investigation of “real” stress such as major surgery or divorce.The findings of the present study indicate that every-day stress is associated with negatively toned dreams.
The Threat Simulation Theory of Dreaming: Evidence from Dreams of Traumatized Children
Katja Valli, Antti Revonsuo According to the threat simulation theory of dreaming, the threat simulation system should become fully activated in the presence of ecologically valid threat cues and stay in a resting state in the absence of such cues.We tested this hypothesis by comparing the dreams of traumatized and non-traumatized children and adolescents.
Monday · June Dreams—Their Primitive Function
Keith Stevens The theory as presented asserts that dreams, via their absolute content and not through symbolism, are a stimulus, exercise and rehearsal of our basic driving instincts, being an aid to survival and for the furthering of the species.They are categorized into nine specific groups according to the emotional stimulus.

Night Wars: Dreams Following the Attack of September 11th
Deirdre Barrett Common patterns have been observed in dreams from survivors of diverse kinds of trauma and we are already seeing many of these patterns play out with the post-September 11th dreams. This talk will present a sample of post-September 11th dreams and describe differences in the nightmares of those directly involved in the disaster and those witnessing it in the media. It will explore how most dreams evolve from mildly embroidered reenactments of terrifying moments to dreams of mastery and describe who is likeliest to get stuck with unchanging nightmares.

WHERE HAVE ALL THE TOWERS GONE? GENTLE GRIEF WORK WITH CHILDREN, POETRY AND FLOWERS
James Villarreal “A little child shall lead them.” This special event will take us on the tremulous September journey through the three stages of grief guided by the eyes of children and the wisdom of the dream. Dreams are indeed wiser than men (Russo) to help make our world sacred again.With adapted Senoi shamanic guides we will learn to make a path by walking.This is presented with video, slides, photographs, art work, and a book display accompanied by soft appropriate music.

THE FOUR ELEMENTS OF THE DREAM
Aad van Ouwerkerk As demonstration of a dreamwork method a dream is approached in four ways: the images (earth), the dynamics (water), the ratio (air) and the perspective (fire) of the dream.All this presents information that can be related to the dreamer’s actual and past experiences. lt results in a creative and symbolic expression of the dream’s essence.

AUDITORY DREAMING: EXPLORING SOUND, MUSIC AND LANGUAGE IN DREAMS
Craig Webb After a brief look at how the brain interprets music and spoken language, I will explore how sound, music and language show up in dreams, offer a hypothesis for why dreams often involve word plays, look at how dreams can provide musical inspiration, and play some auditory principle demonstrations and dream-inspired compositions.

THE DREAMY CINEMA OF DAVID LYNCH
Kelly Bulkeley This presentation will discuss the many different means by which dreams and dreaming are woven into the filmmaking of David Lynch. Focusing particular attention on “Mulholland Drive” (2001),“Lost Highway” (1997),“Blue Velvet” (1986), and the television series “Twin Peaks” (1990–91), the presentation will consider the role these multiple dream elements have played in the broader cultural influence of Lynch’s films on contemporary American society.

REALISM AND ITS DISCONTENTS: ONEIRIC ELEMENTS IN EARLY FRENCH CINEMA
SYMPOSIUM COHEN
9:00 AM–11:00 AM
Patricia A. Kilroe This paper looks at a variety of means that early French filmmakers employed to represent the oneiric on film. Film clips are used to compare dreamlike imagery with other kinds of cinematic imagery.The study of film offers a fresh approach to defining the dream.
THE CINEMATIC IMAGINATION: DREAMS AND FILM
This symposium will discuss various ways of exploring the relationship between dreams and film: how directors use their own dreams in filmmaking; what cinematic techniques are used to portray dream experience; how movies influence the dreams of people in the audience; what psychological dynamics are shared by experiencing a dream and watching a movie. Films to be discussed include Robert Altman’s “Three Women,” John Sayles’“Brother From Another Planet,” David Lynch’s “Mulholland Drive,” G.W. Pabst’s “Secrets of a Soul,” and works by the French surrealists.
CHARACTERISTICS OF THE CINEMATIC DREAM
James F. Pagel Many filmmakers include dream imagery in their films. Such dreamscapes often differ in cinematographic focus and framing, sound, pace, story and imagery from non-dream portions of the film.This study attempts to describe the art and science used by a selection of current filmmakers in creating dreamscapes for cinema.
SOURCES OF DREAM FORM AND CONTENT CE/DIV 32
DREAMS AND FILMMAKING
Deirdre Barrett Dreams and film have an obvious affinity: the movie theater is as close as we may ever get to watching another person’s dreams or sharing such a private experience with an entire audience. In Britain the first buildings constructed for the showing of films were referred to as “dream palaces. ”And, just as in the other visual and narrative arts, some films are also actual nocturnal dreams of an individual filmmaker.This presentation will discuss several films dreamed by the writer/director in their entirety.

USING THE NIGHTCAP TO DO REAL SCIENCE: HYPNAGOGIC DREAMING IN NORMALS AND AMNESICS
Robert Stickgold Studies are described in which subjects’ sleep is monitored in their homes using the Nightcap sleep monitoring system, which not only monitors their sleep but performs instrumental awakenings at predetermined points in the sleep cycle. Subjects playing video games and awakened from the sleep onset period report a high frequency of relatively accurate incorporation of scenes from the games into hypnagogic dreams, as do amnesic patients who do not remember having played the games.

SHAMANIC INITIATION IN DREAMTIME
Stanley Krippner, Maria Volchenko, Sven Doehner, Tom Crockett Shamans are specialists who use dreams to heal and balance.They are made or selected in different ways, but there are always two initiations: the material/physical initiation and the initiation that occurs in dreamtime.These dreamtime initiations come as visions and dreams and represent the initiation into the mysteries of Great Spirit.

PURPOSE AND PERSPECTIVE IN DREAM INTERPRETATION, OR, PEOPLE I’VE MET IN OTHER PEOPLE’S DREAMS IN PAPUA, NEW GUINEA
Roger Ivar Lohmann This address considers a selection of dreamed social encounters reported by the Asabano people of Papua, New Guinea, to demonstrate how dream relationships are variably interpreted depending upon purpose and perspective. Interpretations of dreams and other experiences are plural and changeable because they involve assigning meanings, not simply determining the pre-existing meanings of a phenomenon.These findings argue against approaches to dream analysis that seek a single, correct interpretation.

Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream: Rational Thought in Dreaming
Miloslava Kozmová, Richard N. Wolman This study of participants who kept a dream diary for two weeks indicates that a variety of rational thought exists in dreaming. This rational thought fits the dream environment and emotional and social circumstances of the dreams as noticed by the dreamer. In some cases, rational thought in dreaming was clearly under-reported and its recording may depend on the expressiveness of the writer.
Central to Richard Wagner’s Die Meistersinger is Walther’s prize song,“Morning Dream Song. ” This paper will examine the musico-poetic synthesis as well as the psychological and philosophical implications of this dream inspired song (which will be played before and after the presentation).
Anatomy of the Canadian Dream
Mark Hagan In anatomy of criticism the Canadian literary critic Northrop Frye states that the “whole domain of literature is a self-contained verbal universe, a massive, complex and intricate product of human imagination. ” According to Frye, literature projects an organized myth of human experience configuring and reconfiguring the world and individual selves according to the desires and anxieties that face the community and the individual. Dreams can provide insight into the cultural and historical dynamics of the literary universe and specifically the Canadian novel.
Observations on 35 Years of Experiential Dream Recording
Kieran Lynch Thirty-five years of personal dream records were re-examined and the themes appearing in one month’s dreams in each decade were related to psycho-social developments at the time.Analysis of these “dream snapshots” is presented in the light of accepted psychological and non-psychological theories on the functions of dreaming.
Language, Metaphor and Pun Revisited: Between Dream and Waking
Irving Massey As a pre-linguistic function, dreaming has difficulty in accommodating language. Metaphor depends on a tension between tenor and vehicle not available in dream. Interpretation of metaphor invites endless speculation, whereas dream interpretation attempts to be conclusive. Conscious puns require effort in the making, and produce surprise: dream puns show neither.

Dreamwork in the Light of Emotional and Spiritual Intelligence
Daniel Deslauriers As a natural transformative process, dreams are intimately related to the unfolding of the self.This paper discusses how dreamrelated skills—e.g., metaphorical thinking; understanding of the body-mind relationship; intentional dreaming; empathy—are connected to emotional and spiritual intelligence.This new view emphasizes how adult dreamers can modulate their own development via dreamwork.

DREAMING THE CHARACTER’S BODY
Janet Sonenberg During an experiment dedicated to giving actors direct access to the wild sea of autonomous imagination via incubated dreams, Robert Bosnak and Janet Sonenberg did just that. It arrived in the form of an acting technique that generates the character’s body.This “networked body” catalyzes a fundamental change in performance that takes the mask off acting itself.

Ernest Hartmann The Contextualizing Image or Central Image (CI) is a powerful image in a dream which can be understood as picturing the dominant emotion or emotional concern of the dreamer. In this workshop, participants will examine some of their own dreams to determine whether their memorable dreams, or “big dreams,” contain CIs, and if so, what emotions are pictured. Participants will have a chance to work on their own dreams, starting with the CI to determine whether this is useful in dreamwork.We may also try to construct or build a dream using the CI model.
