Oooohhh, that’s what they meant. Yes, I can create movies in my head for fun, and do it so much and so well that watching real movies can be disappointing. I do find it hard to just model like blender though without imagining more context that just the apple. It’s easier for me to imagine rotating an apple in my hand than imagine it rotating without any reason behind it. My brain send to care about the where and gets bored if only made to focus on the what. Probably has something to do with my ADHD
But that’s the part that really baffled me when I learned that people can “actually” see stuff in their mind: it feels that if I could see something, I would gain access to more or unsolicited information about the object or the scene.
When asked to think about rotating an apple, my brain goes “yes, an apple, I know the concept well. Rotating it is very realistic and doable.” and that’s it. If I could actually see it, I would be able to tell the color, tell the change in position of the stem, maybe there is a small leaf, idk; but that’s not part of the “question” and thus feels really weird to me that people can do that and extract or extrapolate information.
For future reference, it is completely realistic.
It’s like having Blender installed in your head.

Jelly. That sounds really entertaining!

I’m imagining moving verticies on the spinning apple with proportional editing now and it seems like a very quick way to ruin an apple.
