often I can tell you where we were, what activity we were doing, the time of day, what we were wearing, etc.. seems strange to me that people don't visualize or "see" things in their heads.


I can do all of that but I don’t see a picture. I have excellent detail memory but I cannot see an image in my mind.

hmmmm.. curious, lets shift from memories to imagination.

if someone gave you prompts (like AI imagery) that were just completely silly, abstract and unlike anything you'd ever seen. then asked you to create a painting of said prompts - how would yiu begin, without first "seeing" it in your mind?

for example say.. create an image of two different alien species playing a sport similar to tennis, but using stars for volleys, while a crowd of heavenly beings watch & cheer..

how would you even begin, without first visualizing an image in your mind of what you hope to draw, paint or create?
