It seems to me to the extent one can remember and describe a dream, one has the tools to generate it. Supposing that dreaming is a distributional learning process that moves experiences into long term memory, and is not surprising that
a lot of high energy events would arise: Weird plots with unusual interactions of objects and agents. What is surprising to me is not that there this is disorder, but that there is order. For example, I recently woke up in a dream, let the dog out, and
then the dream continued like a half hour later. It is like there is a training procedure underway, that was suspended and restarted.
