She had a hunch--what she called the inventions she came up with to solve the puzzles she saw all around her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBeulah's brain worked differently. She had hyperphantasia, which meant she saw things in extreme detail in her mind, as well as synesthesia, which caused words and numbers and even music notes to show up as different colors in her brain.
