Seems interesting, I hadn't heard of this before. She seems to have to imagine an image of a thing to get the control to register, like a cricket jumping to make her character jump, which actually seems more difficult than just playing with a physical controller or keyboard/mouse, since I don't think I actually "think" about making those sorts of movements. It seems like it would be cumbersome having to imagine the movement everytime, but maybe it becomes 2nd nature for her while she's playing like this.

I wonder if there could be a feedback loop on something like it too where if you see your character walking then they'll continually walk because you're actively seeing/imagining it?

I'd expect "thinking about left" and "seeing someone go left" to be two different "waves"

I know she uses an image of a spinning plate to do some actions (I forgot which). She also played minecraft this way.
