Dreams, Memory, and the Mandela Effect

This chapter explores the nature of dreams as simulations that prepare us for real-life events, paralleling them with previsualization techniques in filmmaking. It investigates the Mandela Effect, a phenomenon where collective memories diverge from factual history, using examples from popular culture and religious texts to illustrate how memory can be distorted. The discussion extends to the implications of these discrepancies, suggesting a deeper understanding of reality and perception through the lens of simulation and collective consciousness.
