My friend is one such person. He is amazed I can "hear" the opening soundtrack of Star Wars. I'm amazed there are people who cannot.
It's probably a related phenomenon to visual aphantasia. My friend, poor thing, has it all.
- anthonypasq 1y agowould your friend be able to hum the star wars theme song from memory? it seems impossible for me to be able to recreate the star wars theme song without being able to hear it in my head.
- teamonkey 1y agoIt’s probably related but not directly connected. My mind’s eye is almost totally blind but I can have John Williams conducting a full orchestra in my head if I want. (I can’t ‘hear’ lyrics though and have great difficulty remembering them)
