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 Project 14 rationale is that
Native American concepts work in lucid Pehuenche Mapuche Dreamwork in extreme conflict resolution, raising of consciousness and purification.

Project Title Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot
Eric J. Lindblom PhD
Project Summary:
Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis is a phase one pilot project toward the establishment of an ultimate Dream Interaction Laboratory. Project 14 has a multi-disciplinary goal in the meld of theory and practice in humanistic, transpersonal, organizational, social transformation, consciousness and spirituality. The areas of concentration are investigation of bias (ethics), in conjunction with epistemology, criteria selection and dreamwork praxis.
Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot would assemble defining factors in what or which dreamwork could be implemented within the scientific enterprise. The Maimonides Dream Laboratory and the Ganzfeld and Autoganzfeld Experiments are the inspirations, s and protocols.
There is a problem internal to dreamwork that needs to be addressed first to establish a basis. The following objection has been registered by R. L. Van de Castle a psychologist with a background in dream research and dream telepathy.
"Subsequently, Van de Castle (1989) expressed particular distress by the failure of replication studies to adhere to Maimonides research protocols." (Ullman et al., 2000)
It has been noted, by Ullman et al., the academic community has shown bias in evaluation of the Maimonides dreamwork. In that there may be ethical questions in the inspirations, s and protocols, there is a call for further research in two congruent steps: 1.) investigation of areas of bias, epistemology and criteria selection then 2.) a look at praxis.
Project 14 feels that there is a basis for investigation, research and epistemology. That basis needs to be shown first in the Maimonides et al. research protocols. "Perhaps our data base and our research protocols will be a continuing source of material for serious researchers who are attempting to encompass the study of anomalous phenomena within the scientific enterprise." Krippner, S. (1993) "The Maimonides ESP-dream studies." Durham, NC: The Journal of Parapsychology.
Several researchable 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) These questions are seen as bias, epistemology and criteria selection, the three concentrations of Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot. In the sense of investigation of bias, Project 14 is a project with a strong ethics imperative.
The goal of a pilot analysis would be to expand the three concentrations of bias, epistemology and criteria selection 1.) to determine the relevant researchable questions for subsequent replication studies, 2.) to identify calumniators, lampooners, traducers, libelers and dawpluckers, 3.) to identify research criteria, 4.) to propose methodology, research design, data analysis formats, falsifiabilty protocols and ways to determine results.
A second part of Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot is to look at transformative praxis (Lucid Native American Pehuenche Mapuche Dreamwork) as the initial sets of questions are addressed in bias, epistemology and criteria selection. The project conducts dreamwork praxis as defined on the other project websites particularly http://project14.bravehost.com .
Project 14 is assembling a body of knowledge on project websites and in coursework at Harvard University (h2o) that is dedicated to a continuous cycle in theory, method, practice, peer review, reflection, data analysis and revision fostering learning in the three concentrations of bias, epistemology and criteria selection in Mapuche dreamwork in the context of Juarez issues.
A third part of Project 14: dreamwork analysis pilot is to encourage a community of scholars in awareness of bias, epistemology and criteria selection in dreamwork and
It is important to state that while Project 14 an exercise in academic enterprise, Project 14 would also foster lasting receiver relationships (recipient of funds and recognition) that are in the academic, financial foundation and publications communities. In that interest a new Dream Interaction Laboratory could be created once the defining factors are assembled, proposed and funded.
How, specifically, does this work tie in with the aims and priorities of the
Project 14: Dreamwork Analysis Pilot reinforces Saybrook's multi-disciplinary humanist mission to investigate researchable questions for bias, epistemology and criteria selection and support the
Project 14 will generate its financial support external to Saybrook for the project itself and, hopefully, for other's receiver relationships. That means that Project 14 would receive and be in a postion to teach other recipients of funds and recognition once the learning curve is accomplished.

• Proposed timetable, including the timing of all project landmarks
Generally, Project 14 is divided into sections of two months duration each and are identified as 1.) investigation of bias, epistemology and criteria selection, 2.) determination of relevant researchable questions for subsequent replication studies, 3.) identification of the calumniators of bias and identify ethical issues, 4.) identification of research criteria and 5.) to design, propose and define methodology, research design, data analysis formats, falsifiabilty and ways to determine results. 6.) The sixth section would be to assemble data and arrange publication strategy to demonstrate receiver ability. Throughout a year long process, dreamwork praxis would be conducted as an integral part of the process and support would be sought.
• Planned outputs include but are not limited to regular proposals, grantspersonship, reports and written assembly based on each two month section, presentations as requested, action projects (such as the actual dreamwork praxis and Juarez involvements) and publication (open access articles and at least one book).
