What to Expect

In 1880 Sir Francis Galton first identified a phenomenon in which people cannot visualize. Reports suggested that as much as 2.5% of the population may live this experience daily. Until now this phenomenon has remained largely unexplored. However, Cognitive neurologist Professor Adam Zeman, at the University of Exeter Medical School, has revisited this recently, including coining of the term "Aphantasia to describe the experience. In this episode, Abraham and RYANO talk about Aphantasia, in their typical "consumable psychology" style.
