01Starting point
Aphantasia – the inability to form mental images – is unknown to many who have it. There was no serious, accessible starting point in several languages that is honest about what a self-test can and cannot do.
02Approach
- 01Our own self-tests following research methods, every item in our own words; plus the original VVIQ with attribution.
- 02Every figure and source checked against primary literature, consistent across all five languages.
- 03Relaunched as a “darkroom”: a custom WebGL shader develops a print as you scroll, and each scene photo sharpens with your answer.
- 04No accounts, no database: results stay on the device or in the share link.
03Outcome
#1 on Google for “aphantasie test” and a test portal in five languages that is honest about what a self-test can do – it shows how design, motion and verified content work together.
