Ah, I wondered if that was what you meant. I think I'd partially disagree then as I'd call imagination the ability to consciously create or (to a lesser degree) enter secondary realities. How one experiences that reality needn't be sensory. I rarely visualize or hear when reading, for example, but I love stories and think my imagination is pretty strong. Too, I think emotions are often but not always present. I've read books before where I could for lack of a better word "feel" the world and the story still left me cold because of personal taste. That doesn't mean I wasn't "there" because of insufficient imagination though ; I came, judged it boring, and left.
