> It’s as if there’s a bunch of points in virtual space, again not visualized, but accessible to my thinking process. I can imagine how they relate, and how they can fit together, without actually seeing it rendered. Not sure if that makes sense or I’m just muddying the waters.

Would it be accurate to call it a wireframe? https://boingboing.net/2023/07/05/this-wireframe-car-looks-l...

If so, this isn't considered aphantasia, just a very weak visualization. A 4 on this scale rather than a 5: https://creativerevolution.io/aphantasia-a-blind-minds-eye/




I describe myself as similar to parent post.

There is no wireframe. There's no visual component for me in any capacity. I have no ability to perceive a visualization of something.

But I know what something would look like if I could see it. I know what an apple looks like. I can know that things are connected or related without seeing them. It is fairly easy for me to "conceptualize" a graph, but there's 0 visual component even if closing my eyes.

I would love if I could wireframe visualize like that post you sent. That would be actually awesome, but I cannot.
