What is your experience? Color? Sounds? Just quiet? I'm super curious...

I'd naievly relate it to how some individuls don't hear in their dreams, they just see in images. The specific type of processing doesn't matter, so long as the resulting behavior is compatible.

The brain is so amazing.

I know a lot of engineers and artists with no internal monolog because they think it pictures.

I didn't realize that they had none until I asked them, if they hear a voice in their head, and they were like, Whoa, you might want to see a doctor about that. 👀

😂 They were genuinely concerned.

just nothing… like when i’m thinking of coding architecture. Theres not really words for that, just something abstract thats hard to describe.

sounds dreamy.

i have to create this silence with headphones and wordless ambient music.

Fascinating. I know the feeling but it’s not normal for me. Takes really getting into a flow state and sometimes even then the flow state has narration of sorts.

When I’m thinking of software architecture and code I’m actually often talking (even out loud) to myself.
