Imagineering

Bleeding edge development of new and exotic products, often without adequate prototypes or product testing, sometimes with devastating or expensive results. Associated with pushing products to market.

The 1940's Lockheed reverse canard solid fuel flying-wing alpha prototype (the human bottle rocket) was imagineering at its best.

imaginary friend

Any used-to-be friendly human idiot who has hurt you in any way, including leaving you out, bitching behind your back, or just generally acting selfishly and not thinking you would notice.

Annie and Laura are my imaginary friends.

*annie and laura text each other leaving person out*

Person walking past: who's that
Person getting left out: who's WHO?

Person 1: those girls sitting next to yo-
Sad person: WAIT, YOU CAN SEE THEM TOO??!!

Imagined Echo

The echo of a sound which did not produce an echo, but which the brain hears after the sound was made because it replays sounds the individual just heard in order to help that individual comprehend it better. Imagined echoes are the auditory equivalent of the images the eyes continue to see though the still image they saw is no longer visible. That scientifically proven phenomenon is called the "persistence of vision," and makes it possible for the 30 still images motion picture projectors display one after the other to create the optical illusion the brain interprets as continuous movement.

Dick Shakey was creating a song on his computers piano keyboard when he heard a jet airplane fly by. One second later, his brain replayed the sound of the jet engine for Richard to could hear it again and know what had just happened because when he heard the jet engine's sound the first time—immersed listening to the piano notes—he did hear the jet engine's distant roar, but because human listening is sometimes selective, ignored it. However, hearing the imagined echo blew his concentration, so he stood up, took a break, and submitted this new term to a new word website.
