I guess I'm a pretty auditory person, as I've never assumed music to take
on the form of pictures. It always just stays music in my head, often
triggering other music thoughts, making me think in music. Sometimes I
think that a particular scene would go along well with the music, but the
scenes are usually an afterthought and ultimately quite simple (nothing
like a mental ganz graft).
