Do you mean to tell me that most people can literally have at will the brain state that is otherwise produced involuntarily by seeing (presumably) real objects out in the world ?

I mean my brain does something when I “visualize” or else I would have come to this conclusion much earlier, but it’s not the same as seeing at all. Maybe it is more like a conceptual process

All I actually see at those times is what’s in front of me, if I try real hard to visualize I might kinda look up towards the ceiling to avoid distractions. But it doesn’t make any similar experience appear in my head

When you close your eyes and think about the twitter desktop compose window, if you can’t see it behind your eyes literally the same way it appears with your eyes open, you have aphantasia! Your nonvisual reasoning must be incredible!

This is nuts I almost can’t believe anyone does this straightforwardly.

Here’s the craziest part: we can also “envision” (see with eyes closed) things that *aren’t even real* - and from what I gather this is how most shit gets invented

Yeah the trivial stuff constrained by 3d visualization, we aphantasiacs play 4+ d conceptual invention algorithms in our spotless minds
