0 Day one of polyphasic sleep cycle
Day one of Everyperson (aka Puredoxyk or Everyman) polyphasic sleep cycle
Some folks have said they are interested in how my experience of the Everyperson cycle turns out. I’m posting my daily journal entries on the experience. Meeps is thrilled to have me awake for an additional three hours everyday.
Why am I changing my sleep cycle?
The motivation for trying the Everyperson polyphasic sleep is to reduce the pain I experience in the mornings from degenerative disc disease (DDD), get higher quality sleep in spite of my delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS) and gain three hours a day of awake time.
The longer I sleep the more DDD pain I experience when I wake up. This sleep schedule seems like a viable solution.
Assuming it doesn’t make me crazier 😜
Anecdotes I’ve read have shown people with DSPS often experience higher quality and more consistent sleep using this cycle.
Day One
OK, made it through the first day. Overall I’ve been alert, focused and productive all day. I have noticed some changes in my vision. I need my glasses more frequently. All day long my vision was the way it typically is at the end of the day when I’m tired. No changes in my eating, exercise or medication except for lowering my caffeine intake. Typically I drink a 12oz cup of coffee in the morning. Today I did not drink any coffee. I did have a some Dr. Pepper during the day.
I went to sleep at midnight and woke up at 3:30 AM. I’m a little tired but not particularly uncomfortable. I do have a bit of the “burning” sensation in my eyes that comes with lack of sleep. Most importantly I have no back pain.
I’ll take my first of three, twenty minute naps today at 7:10 AM.
Ugh, I made a timing mistake and got back from the gym an hour late so the first nap was at 8:10. I woke up feeling like absolute shit because I overslept a bit and went into a second REM cycle. Felt fine after 15 minutes.
Second nap at 12:10. No problem other then being groggy for the first few minutes after getting up.
Third nap at 5:10. Same experience as the previous nap.

0 New Faux Pas Quartet Release
MCSD NetLabel is happy to announce the new five song, 52 min. release by Faux Pas Quartet “MflT Favorites Vol. 2; That’s not music!” #nerdhop
Faux Pas Quartet has performed live improvisations on the streaming radio and podcast “Music from last Thursday” (MflT) on radio.electro-music.com for more then fifty-eight episodes at the time of this release.
“MflT Favorites Vol. 2; That’s not music!” contains fifty-six minutes of the fifty plus hours of music that has been created during the show to date. Including a track with guest “lower case” artist jmtta.
Podcasts of MflT are available for download at www.mflt.info or iTunes – search “Music from last Thursday”.
Faux Pas Quartet is a free form improvisation ensemble whose sole purpose is the spontaneous expression of the unconscious.
The resulting music, quite literally, comes from the same stuff of which dreams are made. Archetypes of the psyche rising unfettered through the medium of the unconscious and becoming manifest in the share conscious reality.
The music is soothing, agitating, floating, rhythmic, funny, scary, sad, angry, melodic and atonal.
Relax, open up and take the time to flow with the music. Above all, give your self permission to explore the irrational.
Aaron Urbanski: Keyboards, controllers, soft-synths and processing
