A question about dreams
This question was sent to me through another forum, but it is interesting, and so I am posting it here to see if anyone has any information.
"I was recently trying to see if there was a technical term for the "in-dream invented backstory memories" (EG: In a dream you pick up a book from a shelf and wind up its central spring, like you do with books, you know? -- Obviously, books aren't clockwork. But in the dream it seemed perfectly normal as if books just were always clockwork. What I was and am wondering about is what the term is for those in-dream memories that preserve continuity within the dream)"

It's a good question. I have no idea.
