This is like saying what you perceive in your head through the wall is exactly as real, vibrant and tangible as if that wall was actually replaced by a window. Most everybody can describe, or "picture," a familiar room in their head - even from long ago like walking through the house you grew up in - but it is not the same as saying it is indistinguishable from actually being in the room and your eyeballs actually looking at it.
- jaggederest 2y agoat least in my mind, it feels like there are two different systems for "imagine something" and "see it from this angle". Imagining something sets it into a sort of virtual space, and seeing it from this angle overlays reality with it. It's not a fully realized tangible experience but it's a lot closer than people with less vivid visualization think it is. My point is not "I can do this", but rather, "I'm close to that, and it's foolish to think the continuum ends where I am."
