The Lucid Guide

Watch the fantastic lucid dream inspired sci-fi series Anamnesis in full.
Back in 2013 I was fortunate enough to work as dream-science consultant for the wonderful Finite Films, the team behind Anamnesis — the unique sci-fi series centred around the experience of lucid dreaming.
My role was to keep the series as true to the genuine experience of a lucid dream as possible (with wiggle room for artistic expression of course). Throughout the series you'll spot all manner of "Easter eggs" that only those experienced lucid dreamer will understand.
It's a fantastic series which sadly never made it to a second season. Even so, it's a rare gem that every lucid dreamer should watch.
Watch it in full below.
(A combined run time of 91 minutes.)
