👋 Hi there, I’m Tom—founder of Aphantasia Network.
In 2011, I discovered I had aphantasia—the inability to visualize images in my mind. This revelation changed my life, leading me to become the first identified case featured in the New York Times in 2015.
Since then, I’ve connected with thousands who share this unique way of thinking. Their stories of isolation, confusion, and curiosity inspired me to create Aphantasia Network.
Our mission? To bring aphantasia from academic obscurity to mainstream awareness, fostering research and building a supportive community.
Today, we’re a thriving network:
- 60,000+ newsletter subscribers
- 1,200,000+ aphantasia test takers
- Featured in NYT, Forbes, CBC, and WSJ
By joining our premium membership, you’re not just accessing exclusive content—you’re becoming part of a pioneering movement. Together, we’re exploring the vast landscape of the human mind and redefining what it means to imagine.

G'Day to all our new members. I'm pretty new myself, but finding this is an awesome forum for some very interesting conversations (unlike FB!!! LOL). Hoping there will be someone new from Australia!!! We are a bit out-numbered!!! 🤣

"I must express my deep appreciation for your pioneering efforts within the Aphantasia community. Your dedication and unwavering commitment to advancing our understanding of this realm is truly admirable. You're proven yourself to be a 5⭐ trailblazer 🙂 an innovator making strides in unchartered territory and setting new standards in this field."
Nick Junes
"I admit I am down the rabbit hole of aphantasia because I am the polar opposite and it's actually helping me understand how I relate to people better. I am incredibly visual and do much in my head. Now when I talk to people I try and figure out if we're thinking differently and I think it's helping me communicate better. When I discover someone is not a visual thinker I can adjust the way I communicate. I think this science is SUPER important and I'm so happy the world is finally starting to focus on it even thought it's probably been with us since the dawn of time!""
Cooper Francis
"I've already found it just incredible lurking in this community and seeing how not just similar but essentially identical many of our life experiences are. Thanks for hosting this incomparable community. I've found the conversations really incredible, thanks so much to everyone for sharing."
Dobri
"Wow, this is a way stronger community than I was expecting! I've been lurking various sources online for months since figuring out I have total aphantasia, and going through the whole "what do you mean not everyone does?" 😂 Thanks for making this group."

"After I retired, I learned that scientists were now studying my condition and had a name for it: Aphantasia. Since then, I have met many others like me. In percentages there aren’t many of us, but as individuals there are millions of us all over the world. I have learned so much more about it and have learned that we aphants, are not all alike. There are many, who like me, are good at STEM careers, but there are others who are good in the arts and other fields. We all learn strategies that work for us. All people are unique. Aphants and non-aphants too, have unique abilities and talents. We need to learn from each other to prosper. If you think you may be an aphant, find out! If you are, find people like you to learn with and from. I highly recommend joining the Aphantasia Network and their Discord community where you, like me, can learn about this growing science, and learn from others who have gone before. "
