[Psychology Today] #Hyperphantasia: when imagination is as vivid as real life https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/mind-unseen/202602/hyperphantasia-when-imagination-is-as-vivid-as-real-life Would people with hyperphantasia have an advantage in mastering sound-guided mental imagery? (visual-to-auditory sensory substitution for the blind)

Any #hyperphantasiacs here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVugtxWmW4E Sound-guided mental imagery, #hyperphantasia

I'll start off by highlighting my updated profile pic today and banner art tomorrow. I made this image for the cover art of a song I created last July for my #Hyperphantasia concept album project. Listen here: https://alonetone.com/Metamere/playlists/hyperphantasia---2025-concept-album/dream-parade

It was another piece made from a set of #WindsweptInfinity images layered and blended in #Krita. I sought images that fit the feel of the different parts of the song, and I really like how they came together in the final result.

Interesting article exploring the relationship between ADHD and Hyperphantasia, thought I'd share -

"Hyperphantasia, a term coined relatively recently in the field of cognitive science, refers to the ability to create exceptionally vivid and detailed mental images. This extraordinary capacity for visualization stands in stark contrast to aphantasia, a condition where individuals lack the ability to form mental images."

Very interesting article about #aphantasia and #hyperphantasia. I discovered I have aphantasia about two years ago BTW. https://archive.ph/iMdvd#selection-3181.0-3181.628

Title: Lost In The Labyrinth of Nightmares

I made another song and companion artwork in the same vein as the one I posted a month ago, but this one is quite a bit heavier. Structured beats and arpeggiated ambience from the Deluge, and improvised analog sorcery from the Typhon.

Lucid dreams can be visually extremely vivid, detailed and realistic. So our brain is capable of very high quality mental imagery, perhaps like #hyperphantasia. Then what is normally blocking our brain from switching to such a state while awake? We have a use case. #neuroscience

#Hyperphantasia affects about 3% of the population. Here's how to tell if you have it https://www.self.com/story/hyperphantasia "Exceptionally vivid mental imagery can seem like a superpower—but it can also be incredibly distracting."

An international estimate of the prevalence of differing visual imagery abilities https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/psychology/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2024.1454107/full 0.9% #aphantasia, 3.3% #hypophantasia, 89.7% #typical imagery, 6.1% #hyperphantasia; mental imagery, #VVIQ

Worked out today in a meeting (yeah, anecdotal and everything) that while I, the #UX product manager have #aphantasia, the UX design lead has #hyperphantasia. Many lols.

This is an updated version of a post I've had pinned on my profile for a couple of years. Like anything related to the study of the brain, there's always new information coming out. This is a more detailed overview, of a very interesting phenomenon, and one I actually experience.

Would love to see people with #aphantasia and #hyperphantasia as well as #neurotypicals train with The vOICe, visualizing the veridical auditory "description" ahead of the appearance of the ground truth image https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihSbdGjB3BQ mental imagery

Does anyone else ever imagine when someone says that they "have no more fucks to give", that they had one wrapped in a box, tied with a bow, until they gave it away?

The neural basis of a cognitive function that suppresses the generation of mental imagery: evidence from a functional magnetic resonance imaging study https://www.mdpi.com/2411-5150/8/2/18 "left posterior cingulate gyrus suppresses mental imagery generation"; implications for understanding #aphantasia, #hyperphantasia?

William Blake’s imagination is thought to have burned with such intensity that,
when creating his great artworks,
he needed little reference to the physical world.

While drawing historical or mythical figures, for instance, he would wait until the “spirit” appeared in his mind’s eye.

The visions were apparently so detailed that Blake could sketch as if a real person were sitting before him.

Such intense and detailed imaginations are thought to reflect a condition known as hyperphantasia,
and it may not be nearly as rare as we once thought, with as many as one in 30 people reporting incredibly vivid mind’s eyes

#Aphantasia and #hyperphantasia: exploring imagery vividness extremes https://www.cell.com/trends/cognitive-sciences/fulltext/S1364-6613(24)00034-2 mental imagery #neuroscience

(YouTube) Mental imagery challenge: can you visualize in just a second what's in a soundscape? Try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RLIvorKeKg Every 2 seconds a soundscape with black background plays, followed by the same soundscape but then showing the source image; #BCI #NeuroTech #BrainTraining

No idea if people with #aphantasia can make any sense of this exercise, of if people with #hyperphantasia fair any better?

Predicting the subjective intensity of imagined sensory experiences from electrophysiological measures of oscillatory brain activity https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.10.31.564917v1 "can be predicted by the power of distinct rhythms of brain activity"; #neuroscience of #mental #imagery, #aphantasia and #hyperphantasia

People with #aphantasia "often report also being unable to voluntarily generate and experience a mental soundscape, other than internal speech".

Synesthetic Hyperphantasia https://fishofgold.net/2022/04/29/synesthetic-hyperphantasia/ Blog post self-reporting on auditory-visual #synesthesia, and #hyperphantasia; resulting from #hyperconnectivity?

Would it be possible that in people with #hyperphantasia there are instead more (excitatory?) connections between visual cortex V1 layers carrying top-down feedback and mental imagery signals and V1 layers carrying bottom-up perceptual signals (from eyesight)? #neuroscience

For me, #hyperphantasia sometimes takes the form of being able to rewind and replay episodes from my life like a virtual reality hologram. Sometimes that includes movies and shows I've seen, especially if I've seen them more than once.
