Not quite the same, and it sounds kind of hellish, but check out Polyphasic Sleeping.

The transition is hellish if you go for the more extreme versions, and you need total control of your schedule because one missed or delayed nap will totally wreck you.

A buddy did that. He did bifurcated, polyphasic, martian 25/10, and the naps. He felt lonely and sad, and wasn't sure it wasn't just the lack of human contact.

Ultimately, not worth it when one has to interact with humans.

So if the average nap is four seconds, the average period of wakefulness is five seconds.

What a life.
