<-- Hypertext | Transhumanist Terminology Index | Hypotext -->
A
pathological deficiency of
imagination. The
inability to
dream, not in the
sleeping sense, but in the sense of
thinking about what could come, about what you can
acheive.
It can come about by never really using your imagination, so never getting the chance to develop and exercise it. It can also arise when someone is bombarded with the concept that imagination is harmful, that they should focus on what is here now.
