Michael Raduga (born 1983) is a Russian-American researcher specializing on lucid dreaming. He is the SEO of REMspace Inc., a Californian company, and the author of 15 books on the subject. In 2023, in order to conduct medical experiments on himself, he successfully performed the first-ever self-neurosurgery, which included electrode implantation.
Michael Raduga raises awareness that lucid dreams, sleep paralysis, false awakenings, out-of-body experiences, and similar phenomena should be united and studied as a single phenomenon due to their shared nature—activation of consciousness during REM sleep. He uses the umbrella term the phase state to encompass all these experiences. Additionally, he promotes the idea that this phenomenon has had a significant indirect impact on culture and religious beliefs.
Notable experiments
editIn 2011–2012, Michael Raduga conducted a series of famous experiments demonstrating that lucid dreams could be responsible for many alien abduction stories[1] (later it was confirmed on a larger group[2]), religious visions[3], and near-death experiences[4].
In 2020, Michael Raduga published a study in Medical Hypotheses that demonstrated close correlations between the frequencies of lucid dreams, sleep paralysis, false awakenings, and out-of-body experiences. Additionally, almost all of these phenomena were correlated with dream recall frequency and sleep duration. This study remains Michael Raduga's most cited peer-reviewed publication.[5]
In 2023-2024 he has demonstrated that speech[6] and melodies[7] can be transmitted from dreams in real-time. In addition, his team have shown that a virtual Cybertruck[8] or a smart home[9] can be controlled from sleep.
Every year since 2020, Michael Raduga has published more scholarly papers on the topic of lucid dreaming than any other researcher.Google Scholar
Self-neurosurgery
editIn 2023, Michael Raduga, to avoid bureaucratic obstacles and speed up his studies, performed self-neurosurgery that included trepanation, electrode implantation, and electrical stimulation of the motor cortex.[10][11][12][13]
Lucid dreaming education and facilitation
editMichael Raduga has authored 15 books on lucid dreaming and related topics. Some of these books have been translated into multiple languages and are often available for free on his website. Additionally, Michael Raduga has developed several devices to assist people in achieving lucid dreams.
