That description reminded me of aphantasia (famous post about it: https://www.facebook.com/notes/blake-ross/aphantasia-how-it-...). Or, Kubrick may have just had a real grasp of the limits of human working memory, especially given the complexity of many of his films.

Wow I started reading it and it rings true enough that honestly I don't want to think about it too much and I stopped reading. Maybe we are on a spectrum and I and towards that end but not completely without the ability to have fantasies. It reminds me of thinking about either (a) what happens when I die and simply cease to exist or equally terrifying (b) eternity is real and I go on living forever. These are just not fun places for me to go in my thoughts.
