Dest Institute
Dest Institute is a sleep clinic from an alternate reality, drawing on real science from this one.
Our technology is based on cephalopod tissue, not silicon.
All you need to do is listen to our handshake lullaby while wearing your own individualised sepia chip. Up to three dreamers can sleep in the same room, each wearing their own chip and dreaming their own dream.
Our technology does not work while you are awake.
The only risk we have found is a little eye crust in the morning.
PROCESS
Guided by psychologists, we work across biology, neurology and optical physics. Teuthologists study the cephalopod tissue. Neurologists keep watch on the sleeping brain. The Optical Translation Group works the light.
The "sepia chip" is living cephalopod tissue. Its chromatophores, iridophores and leucophores make it a living display controlled by neural impulses.
The chip captures the brain's optic firing as bioluminescence before our Dream Access Video Engine (DAVE) sees a single bit of data. The output is light, not a clean digital signal. The Optical Translation Group reads that light and adjusts for temperature, cellular decay and fluid pressure. DAVE then transcodes it into video.
The real science and its sources are in the library.
Dest Institute does not record dreams in this reality.
Disclaimer
We should mention that we have been working in this reality for over a quarter of a century. We work in the dark because we are fully aware of the repercussions that alternate realities and time travelling (subjective or otherwise) might bring. They might have an undesired effect on the status quo. For some of us, this is the desired effect. For some, it is the opposite.
We invite all opposition to distrust us.
