I've always dreamed in colour, and for that matter, in a dreamworld full of
smells, tastes, and textures as well.

I just woke up from the most amazing dream:  I dreamt that LEGO had started
making two-tone bricks.  The bricks were one colour on the top, and about
1/3 to 1/2 of the way down, they would change to a different colour.  The
change was a soft blend, not a harsh line.  And no two bricks were exactly
the same in the way they blended, though the top and bottom colours were the
same, making it possible to select specific bricks.  You wouldn't believe
the amazing MOCs that I created in my dream.  I wish I could have taken
pictures and uploaded them to Brickshelf!  I was creating *all* the physical
objects in my sister's wedding.  From floral arrangements to the bride's
shoes, to the wedding getaway car.  Even a cake.  (Now there's a weird
thought: edible LEGO!  Wonder what flavours they'd come in?!)

My favourite colour combinations for the wedding were a lemon-yellow topped
brick with a darker orangy-yellow bottom, and a violet topped one with a red
bottom half.  But there were suddenly 1000's of new colour combinations,
totally invalidating anyone's colour sorting scheme.  But everything that
you could create looked SO much more real.  There were a couple of two-tone
greys, brick colours, and sand colours, greens, and sand combinations that
also were extremely desirable.  And I got to keep all the left overs!

I wonder how difficult it would be to make bricks like this in real?  That
would be cool, TLC, if you are reading this!

To make this post at least somewhat relevant for other people, here's the
"sense"less survey of the week:  What senses do you dream in?  Especially in
your LEGO dreams?

(...) <snip> (...) How somewhat oddly coincidental. Sure, I've heard this discussion before. I've just never remembered from the time I woke up, to the time the question was asked. Not today however. This morning I remember what was in my dream last (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.general)
