Recognize This Man?

http://www.thisman.org/thisman.jpg

http://www.thisman.org




HISTORY

In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.

That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist's desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.

The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.

From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.

At the moment there is no ascertained relation or common trait among the people that have dreamed of seeing this man. Moreover, no living man has ever been recognized as resembling the man of the portrait by the people who have seen this man in their dreams.

Re: Recognize This Man?

Pff. I doubt it's true at all. They're probably just thinking that and nobody can remember dreams that well. I have never seen him. Where did you hear about it?

Why does he look so much like Carl Sagan?

I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: Recognize This Man?

Err. Apparently some people think it's because A: He is God. Or B: He is a real person who uses some thing to get into your mind.

This makes me think the whole thing is a little bit loony.

A: No...
B: Maybe....


It's probably just that people are either lying, or dreaming of him because they saw the picture.

Re: Recognize This Man?

I have a theory about how this works. They see the picture and hear this story, and then he's in their dreams that night. Simple as that.

Re: Recognize This Man?

Maybe he looks so generic that in dreams when the brain can't find anyone else to put there, it automatically generates this. A perfectly generic man.
