He started with browsing deviant art
And now he's turning into Vsauce

[C_to_the_S]

That guy moving his mouth throughout the video almost looks like he’s lip syncing with Sands’ vocals perfectly.

[Corvus_Erectus]

I don’t know why, but the most interesting part of this video to me is that Solar Sands is an actual human and not a weird vocaloid

[SacarouK]

I can only imagine an image so long as I’ve seen that *exact* object

“Imagine an apple”
*imagines apple slices on paper towel*
“Now rotate the apple”
“What?”

[MahDryBread]

I'm one of the ones with aphantasia who can't picture things in their head, but can hear and manipulate sound very well. I didn't even realise it until I was about 20 or 21. I always though "Picture this" was a metaphor.

[unktheunk]

I think that the ability to have your thoughts be machine-readable will be a skill like any other, like writing or speaking. as neither writing or speaking are particularly clear indications of what one is thinking either

[krisspatrick]

solar sands: *interesting topic*
everybody: YOU’RE NOT AN HOURGLASS???

[Taganoym]

Waked up after a Lucid nightmare once, and I literally got so frightened, I couldn't recognize my sister by her face. It just felt like, I was alone everywhere. UNTIL I REMEMBERED I HAD HOMEWORK.

[spinebones]

The shock I felt when he casually appeared on screen. The amount of swag he exudes, I am swooning

[jacksonpetibone]

Solar sands before: This art is bad, no you cant see my face
Solar sands now: What if we can read your mind

[TheMaskedFox]

His hair looks so fluffy. Also I wasn't expecting an existential crisis.

[timetotalk]

My friend has aphantasia, I forget a lot and ask things like, “how do you think this hair would look on me?” I feel really bad when I forget and he tells me for the billionth time that he can’t picture things.

Do you guys ever try to imagine a song in your head but sometimes your mind just goes crazy and you keep reversing the song at a specific point like half a second back and keep doing it and it's hard to control?

[nacnud]

everyone is talking about the face reveal but I just saw a hat.

[reggie]

Rose= six inches with convoluted red form with a linear green attachment

Glove= continuous brown form with folds

Wife= hat

[rarebeeph]

i don't have aphantasia, but your description of how you visualize is much more vivid than i experience. i can call to mind vague images of things, fluctuating outlines, splotches of color, the general vibe of depth of a form, but i can only really maintain one such detail at a time. but i'm really good at math, which feels to me like a surprisingly visual discipline; whether that's mentally performing algebra on visualized math symbols, or coming up with and manipulating visuals of systems which exhibit a particular relation in one or more of their properties, etc.. it'd be interesting to see how my mental models/methods compare to those of near-aphantasic artists.

[EMJY]

lol i like how he's slowly but surely showing more of his face. it started with the hourglass mask, then sunglasses and a face mask, and now just the sunglasses. dope

[Cpt_Natalia]

I like how this channel is becoming a lot more psychological.

[thatonedude-]

“He could however identify Platonic solids”

damn his wife got friend zoned in multiple dimensions!

[brandonm]

I will never understand the concept of "seeing" things purely by imagining. The closest I can get is dreaming but that still seems like a long way from consciously deciding to picture an image in front of you whilst being disconnected from it
