I was watching this Bones episode where Angela Montegro was looking at burnt remains of a skull. She has this knack talent of drawing faces from skulls. Shes an artist. Anyways, she was looking at the skull and all of a sudden the graphic cgi thing whatever transformed the skull into a person's face and she was staring at it as if she recognized her. Nothing changed to the skull. I mean. she did that in her head without drawing anything.

My question is, from this inspiration, what is this ability where you look at something like bones or whichever and you can see the person as it is from your head? Like you recognized that person from just looking at the bones or a design?
