Grilled Corn Avocado Salad

20210630 #breakfastdiary 135, 22°C/foggy I sauté canned corn in a pan with olive oil, then add chopped tomato, avocado, and perilla leaves. I squeeze in the juice of one lime and finish with olive oil, salt, and pepper. *The corn really should be grilled and then cut in, cherry tomatoes should stand in for regular tomato, and the avocado needs to be fully ripe for a creamy texture. I nailed none of the three — so much for the #grilledcornavocadosalad. 'Advertising is coming into our dreams: excuse me?' A group of sleep and dream researchers published an online statement under that title. The statement warns that a day may come when our dreams are used as space for advertising and marketing, and argues we need to prepare for it. Thirty-eight prominent dream researchers from places like Harvard Medical School and MIT signed on. (Oh Cheol-woo, 'If Commercial Ads Start Showing Up in Our Dreams') Apparently this technology is called 'Targeted Dream Incubation' (TDI). MIT has even unveiled a wearable device that, by delivering outside stimuli — smell, sound, light, a story — at a specific point early in sleep, something like a hypnotic state, can steer the theme of a dream. A future where dreams can be shared, and even manipulated, the way #Inception and #Paprika imagined, is getting closer. https://youtu.be/ZBLejVwX85o
