He seems to have hyperphantasia, judging by every example of mental images he described. It's not a requirement, as the example from the other person on the beach didn't need it to feel that level of self-feeding joy.
But I wonder if aphantastic people have a harder time with this? Or maybe easier with less mental distractions?
- anentropic 1y agoI have aphantasia, and I can definitely get deep into music and to be honest, for me, turning great music into a mental movie seems to be almost missing the point, I prefer experiencing it as music
- buildbot 1y agoI think aphantastic people would be able to but using an inner monologue/internal text? Or even just the feeling and concentration on that feeling? Tangentially trying to imagine not being able to visualize mental images is really hard.
