An Example of Eidetic Imagery


This is an example an individual who has remarkable eidetic imagery in the auditory modality. He can repeat word-for-word the narration of a sports event such as boxing. In this demonstration he will repeat on the piano a piece of music that is played to him once from an audio cassette. You will hear the cassette rendition of the piano piece which he as never heard, and then he will repeat it on the piano. By the way, he is blind, retarded and has never had piano lessons. I've been practicing for four years on the piano and can hardly play twinkle twinkle little star.
