When we imagine something and see the images in our head, where exactly is it all happening and how?

Question

For example let’s say I’m daydreaming about a car, I can now see a detailed ‘video’ of the car driving and doing whatever I want it to. Obviously I’m not seeing this with my eyes, so where am I seeing it?

Answer 1

You’re essentially asking how human conciousness works, in order to understand that you’d need to access something more complicated than human conciousness. Which of course is impossible as human conciousness is the upper limit of anything you can experience.

So the only honest answer here is nobody knows.
