I’m interested in imagination. Are we only capable of imagining things that we’re already familiar with or is it possible to imagine beyond? What’s the most unimaginable thing you could think of? I’m so excited to learn your views!
Imagination is a synthesis of what has been perceived.
Memory is essential.
Mind can recombine and invert what it has perceived.
Novelty is found in such combinations.
Still posting at philosophy forums after twenty years of it. That’s the most unimaginable thing i have ever done.

May I ask you for your personal most unimaginable imagination?
Humans governed by truth.
Outlandish.
I have a very vivid imagination…most of which I cannot share.
When I was a child I would pass my time creating alternate universes, populated with strange lifeforms…detailed down to their reproductive methods and linguistics.
Then I read Tolkien.
I would read sci-fi and fantasy novels without stop.
By the time I was 18 I think I had read 40-50 novels.
The world being a [permanently] better place..
