On this episode we're joined by British neurologist Adam Zeman. Adam is most known for his pioneering work that led to the development and on-going refinement of the condition known as aphantasia–the inability to visualize inside our minds eye.

In this conversation with Adam, we explore what we know about this condition. How common is it? What evidence in the brain tells us this is a real phenomenon? And what are the implications? How does it change our relationship to stress, emotion, memory, and even PTSD? Does it change how we dream or experience psychedelic drugs, and can one have no visual imagination and still be an artist? We explore these questions and more. Enjoy!
