Abstract
It is often said, even by philosophers, that dreams are essentially different from other experiences in that we cannot share them: they are solely available to the individual who had them, not “interpersonally verifiable.”
While we sleep here, we are awake elsewhere, and in this way every man is two men.
—Tlön aphorism.
