Hmmm, good question, I don’t know how to describe it other than it “feels” like my consciousness which normally occupies my head totally and equally, “pulls back” to the back of my head, my vision switches off (it’s not dark it’s just I’m not paying attention to it) and then the imagined imagery takes centre stage in my “vision” or whatever word describes my synthesised imagination theatre.
To turn this on it takes effort and directed focus - the action is voluntary and feels like it takes effort, every time I do it my eyes lose focus and look straight ahead, I cannot do it while I’m looking up/down etc (I just tried). It’s a mental only exercise, it’s almost like you know when you move the muscles behind / beside your ears and you can wiggle your ears a little? That pull-back sensation is just like that.
To turn it off and return to normal takes no effort, it’s almost like dropping a ball and it falls to the ground, I just release and normal vision and stream of consciousness resumes.
I probably did a terrible job of explaining that, sorry
