Seeking Circuits

There are few true treasures

That resonate with the shape

Of this personified perspective

But throughout life

The hand of time

Has provided many pleasures

Which ignite the heart

Sear through the soul

Animating curiosity

A Marriage of Science & Mysticism

Dysikonesia, Aphantasia and a Sophisma: Uncovering a Key to the Minds Mental Mixing Deck. It occurred to me one day, that taken for their literal meaning only, the psychic concepts of the Seven Clair's and the Daimon, provide handy language framework for all the main mental senses. Clairvoyance, literally means ' clear seeing ' or the ' foreseeing light of mind ' - the minds vision. This understanding was a very helpful key for me in pondering the differences between people with regards to mental perceptions in the absence of defined language, even if it was not suitable for long-term use. Explaining Mental Perception with The Seven Clair's a nd The Daimon: Vision - Clairvoyance , clarity of thought in vision. Sound - Clairaudience , clarity of thought in sound. Smell - Clairalience clarity of thought in smell. Taste - C lairgustance , clarity of thought in taste. Touch - C...

Fifteen Types of Mental Imagery and Vividness Ranges

Introduction to the Proposed Framework The new framework that I have presented, designed to help with understanding mental imagery, now includes fifteen distinct modalities (or " yeda's "), each with a range of four variations in strength: aphantasia, hypophantasia, phantasia and hyperphantasia . This results in a total of sixty variations leading to over one billion possible combinations of mental experiences. This expanded framework offers a deeper insight into the diverse ways our minds perceive and interact with imagery, unlocking a more detailed understanding of the mental senses. Neurodiversity is the norm, we all possess a unique perspective to bring to the table. It has taken two years and a lot of feedback from the community to be able to articulate the instant " feeling " or " knowing " I had two years ago when I discovered aphantasia and a door was opened—the topic of neurodivergence suddenly " all made sense ", as did a lo...

A Transgenic Note

Transgenic mutants are deliberately deformed, disabled and disordered for animal research purposes. We can create human-animal chimeras, put human DNA into every cell of a mouse, make cells glow green with jellyfish protein, just to be sure, but no amount of human DNA in a mouse will turn it into a human. No matter how much that mouse thinks it might be able to identify with minute aspects of being human, it cannot. It will always be a mutant of a mouse, exploited for biotech gain. Humanized mice do not get human rights. Law and language for transgenic animals and other such biotech mutants is important and nomenclature is complex . The breeding, movement and welfare of animals under such procedures must be monitored and regulated for the welfare and integrity of both wild and lab lines. Law and language applies differently to animals outside of laboratories, for good reason. Transgenic mutants are covered by the basic animal welfare laws, but they also have ASPA (1986), t...

Anauralia and Anendophasia

The Mind’s Eye: A Conversation with Dr. Adam Zeman

Dr. Adam Zeman is a pioneering figure in the study of aphantasia, the inability to produce mental imagery. In a recent discussion with him, I explored the evolving understanding of this fascinating condition, its terminology, and the spectrum of experiences associated with it. Dr. Zeman defines aphantasia as the lack of mental imagery . Initially, this definition referred solely to visual imagery (or what might be termed visual aphantasia ). Over time, the term has broadened to encompass deficits across multiple sensory modalities, forming what is now referred to as multisensory aphantasia . This includes conditions such as auditory aphantasia (the inability to imagine sounds), tactile aphantasia (a lack of imagined touch), and emotional aphantasia (the absence or reduction of emotional imagery). While we didn’t discuss all the possible senses, I mentioned I am aware that researchers are currently investigating up to 20 modalities. This number wasn’t confirmed during our discussion...
