    What things are you talking about? If you're wondering if I could visualize the world as a pure land, I can.

    ok, how would that work, visualizing is one thing, formulating how it would come into existence is another.

    It starts first with thought.

    If we're discussing creativity, it starts first with visualization, which is thought.

    Hmmm. I still think every visualization stems from some observed sense. My sister explained to me how Helen Keller visualized color. Ice was blue, fire= red, yellow the warmth of a sunny day-- visualized through observation. How could one think of something which had no basis of observation? Can you give me an example?

    For someone to create anything, he or she has to mentally design it, visualize first.

    As God, I would also turn random white conservatives into poor blacks, illegal Mexicans or Muslims. So they can know how the other half lives.
    In other words, every life you touched with this power would be worse off!

    in order to mentally design something you have to combine elements of things you have already seen, people never really "CREATE" anything, we just recombine.

    try viualizing or drawing something you have never seen before,,,and it cant be composed of anything you have ever seen before either.

    as for helen keller, I really dont honestly know how anyone can claim to think they know what was going on in her visual mind.

    Visualization improves performance. Basketball player who visualize the ball going through the hoop before they throw are more accurate. Visualization actually moves muscle tissue. If you visualize moving your leg before you move it, the mind has affected the body already.

    Visualization is a powerful spiritual and mental tool to create something previously uncreated.

    Nikola Tesla the great inventor, (of X-rays among other things) used visualization first in all of his miraculous inventions. He would imagine how each invention would work before he ever put anything on paper.

    That's fine for visual thinkers. I am a pattern thinker. The matrix is the source of my inspiration. I mean a formal matrix, the one that gives you determinants and inverses. The ones where [X'X]-1 * [X'Y] gives you ordinary least squares, dispensing with memorizing formulas to do statistics. Matrices are the basis of programming arrays/collections of any number of dimensions, decision contingencies, differential equations. They are the key to many mathematical and scientific advancements.

    Not true ... I have created some quite spectacular mosaics simply by dropping several pieces of dishes at the same time. Had no mental design or visualization until after the accident when I went to clean it up and saw the beauty in the chaos. Sometimes cataclysmic events happen that way.
