i can picture/taste/hear/smell/feel if i try, but it's more like a memory than a truly active sensory experience in high competition with others... unless i force it and am drowsy. my family tells me my recall is insane, though. i think they overestimate it, because my recall for auditory is probably my strongest relative to theirs. i experience that as a mental echo. i use it when i'm trying to remember something distinct and complex for a few minutes... i'll say it out loud to myself so i can hear it and let it echo for my recall.

i had was near sighted (uncorrected for a while) as a kid, so it makes sense to me why that one is not as potent. but my recall and general experience of colors is rich.

also, having a few calm, chill, cerebral psychedelic experiences can open up meta-cognitive functions. kind of a little journey behind the curtain to see the active work being done on the stage to create the show.
