    One thing I’m learning from this thread is maybe some people can visualise but it takes them effort?

    Strange to imagine minds that are not one’s own.

      Imo its just a different thing.

      Like, 1 or 2 here with sort of moving images like memories, sounds, conversations.

      I still listen to interviews despite being able to make up convos in my head. I watch comedy despite being able to make up jokes and funny stories.

      I watch movies despite being able to visualise whatever i want.

      I mean for me it’s like a checklist. But it goes by fast. Like I’ll list the characteristics and then apply them to a kind of “3D model” in my head.

      Or I’ll just use past objects from my memory. I’ve seen lots of apples in my life, lol.

        This sounds familiar.
