Nova-mining

Nova-mining (noun): The hypothetical process of using a planet-sized object to collect and process the dust expelled by a supernova explosion in order to create new materials. The term conveys the idea of using advanced technology and resources to harness the energy and materials expelled during a supernova event.
In the future, scientists hope to develop nova-mining techniques to collect and process the materials expelled during a supernova event, in order to create new resources for humanity.

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."
