Reproductive imagination
Reproductive imagination (also known as simple memory recall) is an activity in which previously seen objects or images are recalled from memory and reproduced in front of the mind's eye.
Reproductive imagination is contrasted to productive or constructive imagination.
Neuroscience
On a neurological level, simple recall involves activation of an existing object-encoding neuronal ensemble in the posterior cortical hot zone. According to binding-by-synchrony hypothesis synchronous resonant activity of the neuronal ensemble results in conscious perception of the object. [1]

gollark: Possibly because there seems to be a weird lack of good open-source OCR stuff (Tesseract isn't general enough to work on memes).
gollark: I did try installing something for this once but ML stuff always has horrible dependency issues, and it didn't do OCR.
gollark: You can just do it once and save the embeddings somewhere.
gollark: Besides, it's not like I'd have to rerun the model on every stored meme ever to do a search.
