Imagine an apple on a table.
Did you do it?
What kind of apple was it? What was the tabletop made of?
I understand there’s an apple on a table, and I have an idea of it, but it’s hugely abstract. There’s no specificity to any of it.
Apparently “normal” people have a very definite image in mind for this test.
It’s called aphantasia, I think, if you want to learn more.
