In this episode, we are very excited and fortunate to have a discussion with Adam Zeman. Adam tells us his story about how he was involved in coining the term "aphantasia" and how his research and articles got picked up by the media, resulting in the large interest in this phenomenon that we see today. He shares with us where he falls in all of this including all of his inner senses. We ask him about many things that we have been curious about as well as questions from a number of people from an aphantasia facebook group. These topics include, the VVIQ, early imagery research, aphantasia percentages, SDAM, pupil response, wakeful imagery vs dreaming, links to trauma, and unconscious imagery or "seeing without seeing". He also explains to us an interesting study surrounding "Blind Sight".

You can learn more about Adam and his research below....

In this episode we discover how Nikki O'Connor's mind's eye works using the Discovering Your Mind Protocol. Nikki is a Creative Arts Therapist with aphantasia. She shares some very unique experiences such as musical hallucinations and auditory tactile synesthesia. Although she has aphantasia, she ranks very high on the senses of hearing and touch in her mind, which is pretty rare, especially where touch is concerned.
