I'm a 1. I was today years old when I learned that there are people who can only visualize the outline of an apple, nothing at all, or anything other than a fully 3D rendered apple like in a computer generated image. To answer your question, no I don't!
I remember when I learned people weren't just being metaphorical when they talked about "picturing" something in their mind.
Do you have an internal dialogue? Or is it all visual? Cuz my internal world is basically a lightly illustrated book, 95% dialogue and occasionally I can imagine a vague image.
I can create images, sounds, smells, etc the whole gaumut experience OF an apple in my mind. I almost always go for visual it made up in my mind. Just depends.
Not the person you were asking, but seems like you're curious.
Damn that's wild, all I can do is verbally describe sounds and smells to myself in my internal dialogue.
