I'm definitely a 4. The shape is there, but even that's work for my brain. I know what a thing looks like, but I can't see it. Also, I think a lot less people are #1 than they think. A #1 is someone who can make photorealistic art from the picture in their brain. I'm guessing that's like 1% of the people if not less.
I can "see" my wife's face, down to the pores, but I couldn't put it on paper. That's a whole 'nother skill. And yes, the combination of traits are probably more rare than 1%.
Question for you - when you say it's work is it more like:
It's a challenge to summon any imagery in your mind's eye
Or
You can picture a vague hazy apple, but it morphs / distorts into other things?
Definitely that for me. I can force my brain to remember that the apple in question is red, but then my brain will question WHAT EXACTLY IS RED? AND IF RED WHICH RED??? AND SHOULDN'T THERE BE SOME GREEN IN THERE TOO? HOW MUCH? OH WAIT NOW YOUR APPLE IS GREEN. NO, THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU WANTED. APPLES HATE US! and now all of a sudden I'm focusing on a rotten apple core and my ADHD is working out what it would take to turn that apple core into a sapling and how long will it take to make a fruiting apple tree from those seeds? And now my boss is asking me what tf have I accomplished since 8am this morning
...and I can tell you the one thing I DIDN'T do this morning was draw an apple because how do you get 10,000 shades of color from red and black pencils?
The second one. I read somewhere that when you want to fall asleep you should try to picture the perfect apple, with the lighting, colours and everything. Like meditation for people who don’t want to meditate.
I gave myself a headache trying to keep the shape of an apple in my mind.
That's exactly how I am as well, it's infuriating at times for sure lol.
From what I've heard, people farthest on the left of the scale can not only picture an object but rotate it too, often while remembering what the non visible sides would look like. The best example i can think to describe this is rotating a rubix cube without mixing up the patterns/colors.
I’d say I’m a 4 at best but when I did some iq test as a kid (with an actual psychologist) I scored really highly on the spatial reasoning and can often imagine how things go back together or how the should fit when repairing something. But if i try to visualise something it’s usually taken directly from a memory, rather than created in my head…if any of that makes sense.
Yeah, I did a few of those tests for my ADHD diagnosis last year. I’m in the 99th percentile for spatial reasoning. I’m also a 5 on this scale. I can see a puzzle piece and know where it fits in the puzzle. I can see a bunch of weirdly shaped blocks, and figure out how to put them into the shape I want. I was really good at those “you have a bunch of geometric shapes, make them look like a dog” types of things as a kid. My shrink was visibly shocked at how quickly I flew through that section of the test, because the primary limiting factor was how quickly I could rearrange the pieces.
But I can’t fucking picture any of it in my mind. If I have a sketch pad, I can draw a scaled floor plan of my house. But I can’t picture what my furniture looks like. I can describe it. I know what it looks like. But I can’t picture it. Part of my current job involves making scaled drawings. I’m sure that’s not related at all \s
My brain likes to hallucinates the bump map textures from the Xbox 360 era and hard line non pixelated shadows.
