REM Mining
noun | pronounced /rem ˈmaɪnɪŋ/

Definition of REM Mining

The intentional practice of accessing the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) stage of sleep or hypnagogic state to extract creative ideas, insights, or inspiration, especially for storytelling, writing, or artistic expression.

A creative technique developed by author C.M. James in which one consciously induces an early dreamlike state (without full sleep) to mentally "mine" or retrieve narrative elements, emotions, or visions for use in fiction or art.
Examples:

"I used REM Mining last night and came up with the next twist in my novel."

"C.M. James swears by REM Mining as the secret to building the Dreamfall universe."
