In this episode we discover how Stacy Fahrion's mind's eye works using the Discovering Your Mind Protocol. Stacy is a very talented and accomplished musician. She has aphantasia, SDAM, and is face blind. In addition, she doesn't have an inner voice, nor can she experience any of the other senses in her mind. She hardly ever remembers dreaming and is quite good at chess. A very interesting interview indeed!

In part 2 we discover more about how Brett Kelley's mind's eye works using the Discovering Your Mind Protocol. Brett talks about how imagining a mouse playing the violin worked better than counting sheep, how his mind serves up memories like orders at a deli, and how he used his imagination to help him memorize things in school.

Check out Brett's work on Instagram, Ko-Fi (online shop) and Reddit, all under the handle “BKArtWorks”
