Aphantasia Q&A with Adam Zeman

Send us a textIn 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....Adam Zeman Honorary Fellow,Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences,University of Edinburgh Honorary Professor of Neurology,University of Exeter Webpage: http://medicine.exeter.ac.uk/people/profile/index.php?web_id=Adam_Zeman Email: [email protected] TIME project: http://projects.exeter.ac.uk/time/ The Eye’s Mind: https://blogs.exeter.ac.uk/eyesmind/ BNPA: http://www.bnpa.org.uk/Support the showHere is a link to the apple graph, the nature picture, and the carnival picture. https://www.shanesbraindomain.com/aphantasiaYou could be on the podcast with YouPhantasia!
