how is the brain able to give us images when we are imagining something?
In: Biology
Each time you experience something it’s saved in the labyrinth of memories in your mind.
When you try to recall a memory you travel that labyrinth, each correct thing you think that helps you remember is a turn in the right direction and each wrong is a wrong turn. At every dead end is a memory
Now when you are imagining something it’s similar, but you travel multiple paths at the same time and at every dead end you take a piece of that memory. You then take those pieces and mash them together into something new.
You have imagined something.
