More likely than hooking your brain to a machine, though, in my view would be the development of a drug that allows for luciddreaming like in the film Inception.
Luciddreaming refers to the ability to become aware during a dream that you are in fact, dreaming, and being able to exert some control over what happens in the dream.
These four-day galas have blended keynote talks by the likes of Bill Clinton and Richard Branson with shark-tagging expeditions, seminars on luciddreaming and an all-night concert with the Roots.
