What kind of models and representation of things do you do?
What I am talking about is not imagination it's like you are programming in the language of the mind to make permanent programs in your mind. I would say it would be equivalent to making up an imaginary friend that keeps track of peoples name, birthdays and important things so you won't have to. ( but of course it is you and only you that keeps track of it but atleast it won't be conscious)
Also I think a pre-requisite for making these is that you have to be bored out of your mind
At the time it felt like a mental revolution since it seems to have a lot of potential but I never got around doing it so I hoped someone else might have
