Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot
Saybrook Research Center Fellowship Application
The Dead Women of Juárez
"--- More than 411 women have been murdered and more than 500 disappeared among what is known today as "The Dead Women of Juárez," cases of mostly young, pretty women often found mutilated in the desert around Ciudad Juárez and elsewhere in the state of Chihuahua."
Toward a Linear Logic:
The initial rationale for Project 14 is that Native American concepts (Kachina) can be used in lucid Mapuche dreamwork for extreme conflict resolution, raising of consciousness and purification.
An overall view of Project 14 can be found by clicking:
To that end of creation of a more linear logic, Project 14 is in application to The Saybrook Research Center for a fellowship.

Project Summary:
Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis is a pilot project toward the establishment of a Dream Laboratory with a multi-disciplinary goal in the meld of humanistic, transpersonal, organizational systems, social transformation, consciousness and spirituality. The Maimonides Dream Laboratory, at
To wit, the following objection has been registered by R. L. Van de Castle, a psychologist, who has a background in dream research and dream telepathy experimentation.
"Subsequently, Van de Castle (1989) expressed particular distress by the failure of replication studies to adhere to Maimonides research protocols." Ullman, M., S. Krippner, R. L. Van de Castle, M. E. Potts, and D. J. Potts. (2000) "Maimonides ESP dream laboratory experiments: evaluating the assault of the calumniators."
It has been noted, by Ullman et al., that the academic and laboratory community has shown bias in evaluation of the Maimonides dreamwork. There is a call for further research.
Thereby, several questions exist for the Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot project to consider: "Given the diametrically opposed assessments of the Maimonides dream experiments, and setting aside momentarily the manifest malice in some of them, which side is correct? Equally disconcerting, how is one to tell? What criteria should govern?" (Ullman, 2000)
What those questions suggest is that the beginning task, hence the pilot project, would be to address the issues involved in bias, epistemology and criteria selection. The goal of that pilot analysis would be 1.) to determine the relevant researchable questions for subsequent replication studies, 2.) to identify calumniators, lampooners, traducers, libelers, dawpluckers, bias and ethical issues, 3.) to research criteria, 4.) to propose methodology, research design, data analysis formats, falsifiabilty and ways to determine results.
Again, the goal is in the suggestion of potential replicability studies. In addition, measures of validity would be explored in the Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot.
A second part of Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot is to conduct small systems study on limited basis (transformative praxis) to assemble a body of knowledge and suggest feasibility for future study. Project 14 is dedicated to a continuous cycle in theory, practice, reflection and revision that fosters learning. There would be, for example, a continuous, extensive and solid call for further research particularly in calling for replication studies, study of bias, and research criteria.
A third part of Project 14: dreamwork analysis pilot is to encourage a community of scholars in awareness and/or participation in dreamwork and
While primarily an exercise in academic diplomacy, Project 14 would also foster lasting relationships that are in the financial foundation and publications communities.
