It's like cartography.
He makes a map of his mind. There's an example where Naoki
talks about the steps that he has to go through
to understand that it is raining. And it would never occur
to you if you're neurotypical, that you have to flip through
this mental card index, connecting the sound,
previous memories with the word 'rain' to work
out what's happening now. You just know it's raining. [rain falling]
