Savants Autisms Gold Standard- Explained?
Savants EVERYONE'S Autism gold standard.
No matter where you might be in your autism journey or where your loved one might be autistically EVERYONE agrees an autistic Savant is the one of the best things in autism-it was exploited in Rain Man, Savants have been admired and yet Savants like the rest of autism are just looked at with a collective sigh! Traditional populations have the wrong end of the stick when it comes to Savants and they only exploited their "good" parts and granted it is hard if not impossible to figure out a Savant as our thought process has never been admitted to in psychology circles. With a little luck like we had, Rain Man could have come out "normal."
The not quite Savants of our autism Anthropology of very high functioning people as represented on this blog border on the Savant but, perhaps we were lucky enough to also figure out a few social skills and blend in. Long time readers of this blog understand our details and the many reasons WHY modern autism has been trying to hide us for so long-we unintentionally deflate most of the autism of today. Our Picture based thoughts have never been in print before (text book) and our splinter skill development make us the shinning stars of Autism but Gold is not what it used to be-its better. Our double blind experiments in the human thought process have never in print before, our repeatable results and indeed our EXPLANATIONS of how we do it simply blow away all the 'experts' who think Autism is a version of traditional thought. Autism is horrified to admit to us as we draw from the entire autism spectrum and prove autism has jumped the gun. Their saving grace as they see it is they run the autism empire they invented and their is no room for autism's living working successful past. We are especially bad for business, the big business of autism.
Basically, when we think our traditional brain functions are turned OFF and our brains go into a deep "overdrive" and we dream ,picture think and do other novel things to collect and organize our thoughts and if we are lucky we are able to do what our brains have figured out. Temple could do wonders with animals, Alan Turing came up with the computer, Carver, did wonders with the soybean, My friends I talk about on this board are computer and radio Guru's (not all of them) and some of us have done novel things in our professions. I have invented the Turing motor a 70% efficient green car motor that could help save the environment and the worlds dependence on gasoline. Savant type autism is great at understanding the deepest depth of a subject and that provides us with the inside information and often our simple point of view to start from most traditional people miss. OFTEN times our point of view has never been discovered yet.
I can assure you the Model T motor we still use today is simply "stone age" and the result of tinkering and being first in line to figure out a piston and a cylinder. It was not based in engineering it was based in luck. The fact you can't get your car fixed and many are undependable are a tribute to human ignorance, just like autism is. The automobile computers despite the claims are a high tech necessity used to meet emission standards and the side benefit is they make for well 'tuned' machines that are still only 35% efficient. When I trouble shoot a car I fix the "Model T" that not even Ford or Mercedes, first in the field understood, (and even fewer mechanics) and the high tech cares for itself on better makes. If people were in understanding of the car, parts replacement as the primary diagnosis tool would be obsolete.
If people understood Picture based autism they to would know what it takes and what it is we do to overcome Autism. I hope that someday Autism such as ours explains everything from Savants to Einstein to Dyslexia - it already has to some degree on this blog and in the book Thinking in Pictures but alas no expert is from our planet and thus we remain freaks of nature and IF we do good enough traditional people exploit us for a movie or our inventions. MOST IMPORTANTLY Picture based autism (if your loved one is inclined to picture think) has been figured out! We have been there and done that and the day psychology admits to us holds a conference of high functioning people (like we have been begging for) is the day Psychology take a leaps forward and it might be the day the DNA type road map and the building blocks of human thoughts are figured out. There is little difference between the Village Idiot and Einstein-just a lot of luck!
Autism the advanced study of it has unknowingly in trying to help made Autism even worse than it was years ago and our anthropology if studied (autism cringes) will easily "cut the crap" so to speak. Autism will turn out to be solved,(not cured) and many segments of our spectrum will end up doing traditional lives. The face of autism will change and our thoughts explained will shed light on nearly all aspects of psychology and learning disabilities a light from a source never known before at that. It is the dawn of a new century in Psychology-well maybe/ I forgot none of us have PH D's in anything but real life typically. OOPS! We were on the wrong planet! (thanks Gupsy) .
Is this the connection a Savant makes, or needs to make?
In regard to picture based thinking, maybe savant thinking "A picture is worth a 1000 words ", A picture thought (autism) is worth a million thoughts (perhaps Rain Man was simply reading the phone book in a Picture thought!), A motion picture (autism thought) is worth a 1.2 million thoughts and a picture in picture thought (autism again) is worth several million thoughts and a projection thought of a completed something is worth an entire computer system and our 3 and 4 d dimension thoughts (autism again) are priceless insight! If we can explain little or perhaps none of this-"translate it" to traditional thought we are seen as idiots. If we have mastered the autism thoughts and can get them in to words we come off as pretty smart and the Savant seemingly can get his-her specialty points across and might lack the autism charm school necessary to really impress others.
Of course, you must remain aware that our innovation and our stunning results are usually out of the realm of possibility as traditional thinkers (no offense) are too shallow to know, or they don't have the mindset to realize our everyday obvious. It seems Turing's computer is a fine example of a different point of view that worked, without it you have never read this online!
