I think I've probably seen you too much. But that doesn't mean you look like how you really look like in my head. It's complicated, because I don't vizualize very much. We talked about this once or twice, like when you did that post about what you see when you write or something, I think. The thing is when I, for instance, picture *you* in my head, there's a very distinct impression, but I feel almost as though I'm looking at it out of the corner of my eye, and when I turn to look at it it disappears. When I look at this artist, though, I *recognize* the figures, like that's what things in my head *would* look like if I could actually look at them.

Sorry for the ramble. This topic fascinates me because the more I talk about it, the more I realize I see the world differently than most people. Or else we each have our own individual ways of seeing, but we have to work on a common ground. Just like how when you see purple you might be really seeing what I see when I see yellow, but since you see all yellows as purple I'll never be able to know you see the world completely differently.

boggle-y.
