A friend took this photo while Dash listened to her stories.

Dash is working on a complex financial ledger project. She uses coding agents to help with the project and is learning how to use them effectively as the tools evolve. She has been building several other businesses privately.

Lucid dream research

She is also collecting data for an AI model that predicts transitions from REM sleep to waking. The frequent electrode applications caused skin rashes and breakouts. She has had to adjust her electrode setup to reduce skin irritation.

Psychedelic Synagogue

Dash recently hosted Psychedelic Synagogue’s Yom Kippur event at the Chicago Botanic Garden. She is gathering feedback to help shape future events.

Hosting events

She has been focusing on hosting events with creative and purposeful activities. These include dance improvisation, DIY Project Runway, art nights, pole dancing and karaoke, vision boarding, and more.

Interest in humor

She collects stand-up clips and transcripts, then studies what makes the jokes work. Lately, she has been paying attention to how comedians build tension and then undercut it.

Health

Dash follows a protein-focused, organic diet. For exercise, she walks, pole dances, and does calisthenics.

Looking ahead

Dash and her spouse plan to live in Los Angeles this winter, closer to friends and family.
