The Seeders

He was a boy of imagination. He read a lot, watched movies and dreamed.

He remembered his dreams in every minute detail well after he had awoken. But noone seemed to care to listen the stories of his dreams. The truth is that some were really boring; most of them though were adventures and travels and pictures that cannot happen in real world. His dreams were so vivid, the characters so alive and fresh with no possibility they had been seen in his entire real life. Sometimes no consistent story, some others a well defined scenario with start, middle and end.

He saw a lot of movies. He liked feeling them, whether they were science fiction, or comedies, or dramas, or love-stories. He could not stand crowded theaters and popcorn and whispers all around. He wanted to get into the atmosphere of the movie and be part of it. He used torrent to download movies... waiting for all the seeders to provide the parts of the movies, seeing the graphic with green threads condensing here and there on the line showing the progress of the download.

His readings were of all kinds and each of it left something in his mind; some ideas would grow some others would be lost in his subconscious mind. A wild forest of thoughts with central trees of life and flowers and weeds and roots.

Then as he was growing new thougths came... poping out from the things he loved.

What if dreams were parts of other realities? What happens to all those places, characters he dreams of when he moves on to the next dream or when he wakes up? They are information taking existence and life even for limited time.

What if his own dream was a contribution to an act of a seeding process shared with others seeders just like torrent downloaded movies?

What if there are master seeders that create the story and "junior" seeders that develop the story's web, some taking it from where some others have left it to expand it to a new reality?

What if our real purpose as a developing expanding society is to create and build other worlds? What if that is why we do have to sleep in order to live? What if there is no personal purpose in this life but only contributions in common greater goals?

He became a man of action on the ideas and questions of his youth.

He developed the most advanced application for capturing dreams. Key words, graphics, notations and symbols could be used by the users to captue their dreams, snapshot pictures and flow of stories.

Behind the scenes cloud databases would sort and arrange everything. Combinations would be attempted, patterns would be recognized, timings would be put in order and changed again to build alternative meaningful scenarios.

Then artificial intelligence programs would take action and attempt to create the stories and then paintings and then films. The contributors would be tagged for each single part of every universe that would be built. If additional characteristics were provided by each dreamer (like on their physical appearence, the character, the psychology, the ideas and any other) they would be stored in the cloud databases. One could also allow social media profiles to be accessed for filling the gaps of one's dreamland. At a certain point of time all contributors would be at once informed on their special connection of building a parallel reality, on the time and place of the contributed content and if they wanted they could contact each other for discussing their common creation.

Many years passed and all happened as planned... people responded to the call and wrote down their dreams using the application. The mechanisms worked perfectly and inuberable dreamlands surfaced.

Results came out as a miracle for mankind... dreamers met each other in dreams, contacted characters of the dreams and discussed ideas and fears and feelings with them.

People at that point entered the era of their real creation.

The increase of population had offered an increase in the collective unconscious, the conscious and subconscious of each person were the touches on the canvas of our world. Our tangible creations, the technology, and the science provided the tools for discovering the purpose and putting in order the pieces of a greater puzzle. All these together acted towards the creation of something more; the realization of our role as creators. Every piece of information, thought, feeling, behavior, affect the part of the dreamland we build. The better persons we are, the better worlds we build in common with other unknown to us minds while we sleep. Our happines is not our purpose, not our road; it is the tool we practice and use for creating better worlds somewhere else...

He himself was a sparkle that ignited the era of responsibility for our being and our society; for what we build and feel here on earth in this universe but mainly for the infinite worlds that reveal and spread somewhere else, wherever we create them, in the land and time of dreams.
