Free Functionality (Aphantasia, #2)

Free Functionality invites us into an uncharted landscape of the mind-one where images are silent, yet perception runs deep. Centered around the phenomenon of aphantasia, this book redefines what it means to imagine, think, and know yourself without mental pictures. But it doesn't stop there.
Through poetic insight and practical reflection, Free Functionality offers a new way of relating to the mind-not by forcing imagery into it, but by unlocking what is already present in its stillness. Aphants-those who cannot voluntarily visualize-are not broken, limited, or lost. Instead, they may be free: free from visual clutter, from mental noise, from the tyranny of representation.
This book is not a guide to fixing aphantasia. It is a guide to living through it-and even because of it. It explores how memory, creativity, empathy, attention, and self-awareness operate in minds that function silently and inwardly. Along the way, it speaks to anyone-aphant or not-who has ever felt alien to the way their mind works, or who has struggled to make peace with how they think and feel.
Combining theory, lived experience, and a gently philosophical tone, Free Functionality becomes a quiet manifesto: an invitation to stop forcing your mind to work like someone else's, and instead learn the art of listening to how it works on its own.

Mustafa Acungil defines his profession as follows: Learning and assimilating complex subjects quickly and well, and presenting them to people in an easy and enjoyable way.
Just as his professional life is based on this definition, what he does as a poet and a writer is no different. He aims to present works that he pulls from the depths of his mind or perhaps from somewhere in space and transforms into an enjoyable chain of words.
Mustafa Acungil, meslegini söyle tanimlar: Karmasik konulari hizli ve iyi ögrenip özümseyerek, bunlari kolay ve keyifli anlasilacak sekilde insanlara sunmak.
Profesyonel is yasami bu tanima dayali oldugu gibi, bir sair ve bir yazar olarak yaptigi da bundan farkli degildir. Zihninin derinliklerinden ya da belki uzayin bir yerinden çekip çikardigi ve keyif alinabilir bir kelimeler zincirine dönüstürdügü eserler sunmayi hedefler.
