What is a receiver and what do they do?
"A 'receiver' participant in a soundproof, electronically shielded room would be monitored while sleeping for EEG patterns and rapid eye movements (REMs) indicating dream state."

How about ESP?
Note: "Montague Ullman from the research team commented that if a subjects dream "is vivid, coloured,… and somewhat puzzling to the dreamer and does not 'fit' into his dream pattern or reflect recent activity, then we can be alerted to the possibility that the dream is being influenced by ESP."

What exactly is sent and received?

Sender/ Receiver
"Shamans were the first dreamworkers and the first to ask traditional philosophical questions. They used (and still use) altered states of consciousness to travel into "dreamtime," obtaining power and knowledge to help and heal members of their communities -- the social group that awarded them shamanic status."

Waking life: Dreaming life.. The construction of Realiity in Walking life and dreaming life., http://www.geocities.com/dreamerbooks2003/dreaming_life.html Maimonides Protocols:
"In the Maimonides dream studies, two subjects—a "receiver" and a "sender"—spent the night in a sleep laboratory. The receiver's brainwaves and eye movements were monitored as he or she slept in an isolated room. When the receiver entered a period of REM sleep, the experimenter pressed a buzzer that signaled the sender--under the supervision of a second experimenter--to begin a sending period. The sender would then concentrate on a randomly chosen picture (the "target") with the goal of influencing the content of the receiver's dream.
Toward the end of the REM period, the receiver was awakened and asked to describe any dream just experienced. This procedure was repeated throughout the night with the same target. A transcription of the receiver's dream reports was given to outside judges who blindly rated the similarity of the night's dreams to several pictures, including the target. "

Repast of the Lion: Henri Rouseau
"The Repast of the Lion Henri Rousseau (May 21, 1844 - September 2, 1910) was a French Post-Impressionist painter in the Naive or Primitive manner. He is also known as Le Douanier (the customs officer) after his place of employment. Ridiculed during his life, he is now seen as an untaught genius whose works are of the highest artistic quality. Henri Rousseau was born in 1844 in a city called Laval. He did not start painting until he was forty. Before that, having served in the army, he then worked in a tollbooth on the edge of Paris. Rousseau had never had any artistic training, and was not influenced by any particular art school. Typically he would start by drawing a landscape such as a stunning view or a favourite part of a city and paint a person in the foreground. He called this "portrait landscape". Rousseau’s most famous paintings are of jungles which is surprising because Henri never saw a jungle, he never left France, but he got his inspiration from illustrated books and the botanical gardens in Paris."

Using "Repast of the Lion" as a dream target.
"In one experiment, Henri Rousseau?s painting Repast of the Lion, in which a lion is biting into the body of a smaller animal, was selected as the dream target. The dreamer had several dreams about and animals. In one dream, about dogs, "the two of them had been fighting before. You could kind of see their jaws were open and you could see their teeth.. .. It?s almost as though could be dripping from their teeth." For this particular dreamer, the judges confirmed that five of eight dreams corresponded to the image that was sent. The odds against a chance explanation for this outcome were over one thousand to one. The onides studies are classics in dream research, and they strongly suggest that dreams are an avenue of nonlocal communication between separate, distant persons."
