alta	Alta: a detailed dreamer	2	1985-1997	8/11/67	F	A	I'm at a family reunion in a large fine house with grounds (or a maybe a rented public building like in a park) - maybe it's granite or something, very imposing. I'm on a little round balcony with a few others (I think men), there are lots more people inside. I feel faint and collapse. They see that I'm very sick, and ...	2MSA, 2JSA	null
alta	Alta: a detailed dreamer	3	1985-1997	8/1/85	F	A	I watch a plane fly past and shortly realize it was too low. It crashes not half a block away (rather as though it fell from a height of a few yards than flying straight into the ground). and I think there might be survivors, and that I should call the police. Before I get the number dialed, I realize I want the fire d...	2ISA, 1FSA, 2ISA, 1MKA, 1MKA	null

A boy of 10 or 12 is impatiently telling me, "Mother's asleep" (I think) - as if I'm not supposed to be doing what I'm doing instead of her or without her knowledge or something.

I am there because I live there or at least it belongs to me and I spend time there, and I am on vacation or something. It's afternoon and I remember how the light looked and my cousin came to see me for a visit, as though...	1MKA, 2IOA, 1MKA, 2JSA, 1MSA	CO D, AN 1MKA

I'm in her place, and aware that the door is open to my place and anyone could walk in and steal things.

The place doesn't seem like anything specific, not an office, but definitely not a residence of any kind - call it a waiting room.

The table is loaded with dishes and I've finished eating, so the idea is to get the tray of dishes off the table (my side anyway). To do this I balance it on my forehead and try to lower to the floor. Doesn't work. I can ...	1FKA, 2IOA	null

There are some really strange guys been looking for that other person (a young boy) and my brother doesn't know what they want but I'm afraid I do. They won't necessarily hurt anybody but you ca...	1MKA, 1MSA, 1MSA	AP D, SD D

The direction seems to be north, as though I still live in San Paulo. We're going to stop somewhere for Thanksgiving dinner. On the way we stop at a roadside "garage sale" where there's a lot of old furniture and things - i...	2JKA, 1FKA, 1MKA, 2JSA, 1MKA, 2JSA	HA 1FKA

I break away from them and go out to the middle where a lot of people can see me and vice versa, and I start yelling so...	2JSA, 2MSA, 2JSA, 1MSA, 2JSA	SD 2JKA

Loretta's there and has something in a bag she wants to share since somebody else didn't or couldn't take it. We talk to somebody. I have to go somewhere for a while - it involves riding home on a bicycle and doing some errands. I'm going to return some books in the OL chute but as...	1FKA, 1ISA, 1FKA, 1MOA	HA D, AP D

My area is stuffed full of things, and there's only 1 electrical outlet. I've just brought in a new lamp and rearranged the extension...	1FKA	null

I'd gotten something here I liked a lot, in the way of jewellery, I think, from an older guy, a craftsman, in a middle booth.

I'm on the phone with a branch manager who's trying to handle a book returned in some way she couldn't handle - wanted to know how to handle it and somehow it's turned around - it's Friday and she can't raise anybody for advice.

The killer isn't mad to kill him, just determined, as if he's a hit man. The other guy is nice looking, I believe I know him, and he's clever and has been able to outwit the other guy [the killer] up to now. He's still loo...	1MSA, 1MSA, 2JSA	AP 1MSA, HA 1MKA

Part of it involves sitting at a desk or table, a long one, like rows of people at desks or tables, keeping track of something or some kind of current paperwork.

One thing is a sort-of knife but I see it has a collapsible blade that recedes when I try to get it in her mouth. I also see toothpaste and toothbrushes, including one that conta...	1FKA, 2JSA, 2JSA	HA D

It's very "family" out here, everybody's close. I'm going toward one of the houses - is it my house? I think I'm just staying here on a visit.

Both of us are having trouble walking, and we've fallen behind the others, but I'm ahead of her for some reason. I seem to be infirm in some way, maybe I'm limping.

Presentation

DreamBank, an open corpus of more than 27,000 dream narratives, mostly written in English.

Annotations were produced using dream-t5, a LaMini-Flan-T5 model finetuned on Hall and Van de Castle annotations to predict character and emotion. I've introduced this task in this paper:

Gustave Cortal. 2024. Sequence-to-Sequence Language Models for Character and Emotion Detection in Dream Narratives. In Proceedings of the 2024 Joint International Conference on Computational Linguistics, Language Resources and Evaluation (LREC-COLING 2024), pages 14717–14728, Torino, Italia. ELRA and ICCL.

This work was performed using HPC resources (Jean Zay supercomputer) from GENCI-IDRIS (Grant 20XX-AD011014205).
