a montage has five main features… 1: the most significant aspect of montages is that the dreamer is aware she/he is awake – 2: the theme of the scenes are usually the same – 3: to date they have been observer-only – 4: they usually have a high vividness rating (3.3 and higher) – 5: the duration of any one scene is less than two seconds of dream-time
also, montages can be controlled by the person in that the images can be of the persons own making
moving images can be replayed and “freeze-framed” which enables a person to take in the detail
