Ask HN: Mental Games (?)
I was going to write everything here but it quickly became too much, so here's the link https://gist.github.com/grownseed/5384323. I would like to know if other people have come up with other personal mental games, just out of sheer curiosity.
Thanks!

Hope this helps!
Actually found these really interesting and started playing around with the selective sight, although I used to do that when I was younger with my fingers, making them disappear. I think that's more of a physical action to do with your retinas, but still. Regarding the "illusions," how detailed of an object can you perceive? Is it actually tangible in your vision or just a projection of your imagination onto a location in your sight?
