You Can Now Turn Your DREAMS Into Videos?!
A new A.I.-powered device called the “Dream Recorder” is going viral — and it turns your wildest dreams into trippy videos. But here’s the twist: you have to build it yourself. This post breaks down how it works, why it’s not reading your brainwaves (yet), and why TikTok’s about to be flooded with nightmare-fueled dream clips. Perfect for tech lovers, DIYers, and anyone who wakes up asking, “What the hell was that dream about?”

If you’ve ever had a crazy dream and thought, “Yo, that needs to be a movie” — someone might’ve just made that happen… kind of.
A group of tech creators in Amsterdam invented something called a Dream Recorder. It's a small device — about the size of an alarm clock — that takes your verbal description of a dream and turns it into a video using A.I. tools.
No brain scans, no chips in your head — you just remember your dream, tell the machine what happened, and it spits out a wild little video clip that looks more like a trippy music video than anything realistic. Think “low-def acid trip” but make it vibes.
It stores about a week's worth of dreams, and they say it’s made for people who want to “reflect on the meanings of your dreams as they echo into waking life.” (Translation: You get to watch your weird dream about flying goats and exes from middle school.)
BUT HERE’S THE CATCH:
You can’t buy it in stores. You have to build it yourself.
They’ve posted a full shopping list and instructions online, and the total cost comes to about $330 to build — plus 15 cents per dream.
The whole thing runs on a video AI platform called Luma, so you’ll need a little tech confidence to pull it off. But if you’re someone who’s dreamed of turning your sleep into content — congratulations, your influencer era just expanded into REM cycles.
