Lucid Dreaming Database

Chris Olsen, doctoral student at ITP, created the Lucid Dreaming Database as a part of his doctoral research. The site includes over 800 articles on topics related to lucid dreaming. A clip of the documentary,Wake Up! Exploring the Potential of Lucid Dreaming, is also hosted on the site. Both projects are rich contributions to the field.
