@pathfinder @actuallyautistic Oh, this is fascinating! There has to be a name for it.

I wish I had a little bit less pervasive sound memory. It stands me in good stead with other humans, though, bc I am bad with faces and names, so once someone talks, I know if I know them.

Sounds, voices, accents, they all come with strong physical sensation and thus, strong memory. Sounds get stuck in my head, sometimes on repeat. I have to change my alarm tone frequently because even if I choose a seemingly pleasant one, it will end up stuck on a loop in my head. Sometimes I can sit down and reproduce it on the piano. But I don't think I have perfect pitch, despite having been a musician my entire life.

Our brains are so fascinating, aren't they?
