I’m a 5 :) Thought for way to long that all this “Picture in your mind” stuff was just a figure of speech, not that people actually SEE pictures on their mind.
I find this totally fascinating. I have a friend that is a 1 and I’m a 5. I asked him to picture his childhood home and he said that he just knows that it was white, not that he can see it. We both thought the other was shitting on each other. He’s a good artist too, I have no idea how. Maybe because he’s true innocence? He’s not planning anything out in his head.
I’ve got the video thing too, I never really thought about it. Thanks for mentioning that. I can feel and touch, but I can’t smell. I don’t have a good smell memory unless it just happened.
I’ve got full 4D video, but the framerate in the world-gen system doesn’t match with my occipital processors, so it’s really choppy and it takes a lot of BPU cycles.
Though I am unable to smell in there, my smell-Memory is spot on in when and where I smelled something, I can’t even see while doing this. But I’ve learned to trust my body to just keep me alive while… hardcore daydreaming I guess?
I used to have a synced framerate and AR capability, where I could project my thoughtscreen into the air, or onto a wall. I know what you may be asking, but no, other people could not see it.
Then I lost it over time, seems like one of the OS updates didn’t support my hardware.
Ok. That’s cool. I don’t know if I’ve intentionally recalled touch in that way before. Lamb’s ear and comfrey plants are interesting and satisfying to recall.
I… Didn’t know that was a thing but it makes sense. Is less than 1 something that people typically do without intent? That is, I can imagine a cartoon apple but, it’s different than imagining an actual apple.
Anything less than a 1 makes me raise eyebrows, but the fact some people see just an outline or even nothing still blows my mind

I have this but somehow with video? Like I can take a mental tour through an area I’ve been to. Oh, and I can feel touch in those mental tours.

(BPU = Brain Processing Unit)
LOL same

The human brain is truly a strange machine!

c/Aphantasia FTW!
I imagine things at 2, but if I concentrate I can imagine at level 1.
I can see all of them up to 5, which looks blank to me.
Definetaly a 1 here, I knew some people were a 5 but I always assumed that 1 is the norm.

I can see it but it’s kind of blurry.
It’s more like a blurry flash to me
