For those who weren't aware.
Quote:It is with a very heavy heart that we announce the passing of our Founder, Sean Lalsingh Harribance. Extraordinary among humans, determined to astound science while embracing theology, subjecting himself to laboratory testing for more than 6 decades, startling people with revelations of their most intimate stories, accurately predicting personal as well as world impacting events, and a husband, a father, and a friend, Sean has left this world. In the loving company of his family, Sean Harribance passed away on August 10, 2022 at 11:52 a.m.
I did get the chance to correspond with Sean while he was alive, and shortly before his passing. The most important thing I remember from our conversations was that Sean didn't know how he did what he did, and had no theory other than it being a gift from God. He asked me if I could tell him how it all works, which I could not. I simply stated that we are all individuals with our very own configurations, and that his gifts have proven to be very special to researchers. We did not agree on theology or angels, but that never kept him from discussions and conversations. He kept more of an open mind than I will ever be capable of.
I can add that Sean had a brain abnormality, so I believe he was on the savant scale. The abnormality disrupted/interfered with the ability to use his internal GPS; You could take him a few blocks from his home in Texas and he had no clue how to get back by himself.
Quote:...found that damage to the right side of the posterior parahippocampal gyrus affected the utilization of egocentric information during spatial tasks. An anomaly in this region from an “alternative” organization rather than classical damage would be compatible with Mr. Harribance’s long history of discrete deficits of spatial
memory, such as persistent errors orienting himself towards his home in which he has lived for decades once he can no longer see it.

So, if he lacked egocentric filters, he was then not self-focused. Perhaps this alone is what gave him the ability to interpret data from pictures?
Quote:Egocentric information refers to data, experiences, and perspectives filtered primarily through one's own self-centered viewpoint, making it difficult to grasp others' perspectives, leading to self-focused reasoning, distorted reality, and bias towards one's own contributions or importance
