Different Spectrums Podcast – June 17, 2024. 15-minute preview below. Watch the full episode here.
Description: Dr. Naz, Spencer, and I delve deeply into the experience of hyperphantasia, covering what it looks like, how it feels to the person experiencing it, how to interact with a person who has it, pitfalls and how to deal with them, the amazing depiction of it in (my favorite movie) Aronofsky’s 2006 masterpiece The Fountain brilliantly portrayed by Hugh Jackman, coping with picturing death, and processing grief. Dr. Naz discovers he experiences hyperphantasia as we speak. The 15-minute preview here is mostly of the clips I selected for us to use to discuss the topic in the full episode.
