Never heard of this before, and it’s a pretty cool topic to delve into. I also stumbled upon hyperphantasia which sounds absolutely incredible. Imagination so vivid it’s basically like real seeing.
You can still have an eidedic memory (as mentioned by Brenstar).
A photographic memory is just a perfect visual memory.
I tried training it once. It didn’t go well. It turns out I’m mostly aphantastic as well. I can still have fully visualised dreams however, which is always odd.
As an aphantastic person I am on the opposite end I guess.¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Hey now you are still a phantastic person!
