Does anyone know of any websites that are entirely (or almost entirely) visual, or maybe tv programs or something else that is entirely visual (as in no words used)?
I have realised that my brain is almost constantly tired, and thinking without words is the thing that most effectively aleviates this, I find words tiring, so I'm looking for interesting wordless things, I am not interested in looking at art.

Don't know cogs, only thing I can think of is, powerpoint slides. Problem is you did not say what you want exactly or "is this from NT model in general?".

Does text-to-speech software not work? for auditory, or that what you mean by words. Don't know if they is a software that can maybe turn text into visual. Sign language is a visual language :/, thought I would stick that in.

Never really looked directly for visual learning material.

What I want is essentially what you said - visual learning material.

Yeah, I am after no words. I dont think it exists but text to visual would be brilliant :D

Yeah, I am learning it at the moment. It is great, I love the classes, the almost wordless silence, dont like the eye contact part, but my thinking is as I get better I will be able to understand things like signed youtube videos etc. and talking to people in a visual language I think sounds good.

Hmm...it doesnt seem easy to find. Google is based around words.

Thanks for your thoughts!

I don't know if this is the sort of thing you are interested in, but I saw this link on an Asperger's blog. It's fun to look at and very repetitive, but serves no other purpose. Beware of the music- turn down the volume on your computer before you click the link if you don't like loud, bouncy music.

You guys ever right click the "Inspect Element (Q)" button in firefox & then press the "3D(m)" button & then move it with your mouse & arrow keys.

Is that link supposed to result in an HTTP 404 page?
EDIT: I think I know what this links too, I have seen this in action on another WP thread. Its pretty cool to look at, I was hoping to find something with some information content though.

Oh wow, couldnt find the 3D(m) button but flicking between the different elements was way more captivating than it reasonably should have been

Thanks for the suggestion, I've actually tried that one but there was not enough content to hold my attention. I think what I am after is something with content but uses pictures rather than words to communicate it.

Hello, not sure if it is what you want but I've collected some links about visual experiments & web technologies over the past few months.

I'll share it anyway:

Neave: http://www.neave.com
My favorite on his website being: http://neave.com/strobe/

Then: http://yooouuutuuube.com/
Here you can embed the video of your choice by copying the link from Youtube and move the whole think with your mouse or keyboard.

http://www.360cities.net/ allows you to have a panoramic view of some/most of the cities in the world. High resolution, beautiful views for most...

Also, when it comes to visual, I really like to have Gforce or Whitecap plugins running on iTunes while I listen to music. You'll find them here: http://www.soundspectrum.com/

Last but not least: the most beautiful visualizer i've seen so far, but only for Android phones and tablets: projectM ...

A lot of DIY includes pictures only instructions. I've recently built a toy-like robot arm for my son, not a word in the manual, just pictures. Many various PDF are available on P2P networks that will include a very little words and a lot of pictures.

Otherwise, Vimeo.com or try some Lego :)

Have a nice day...

The website Pinterest is very visual. Pinterest

The Tree of Life is a very visual movie.

Or you can go on the website Stumble Upon and only set your interests to pictures and art or whatever you like. Stumble Upon

Thanks I will enjoy those websites. The DIY idea is a good one, I had not thought of that - perhaps that is why I still enjoy lego :)
