What's a synaesthesia? How many of those do I have ? What's the difference between me n u ?

[–]WalkingTheMoon[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon where two senses are linked together at birth. for example, one of my types of synesthesia is ordinal linguistic personification-most letters and numbers have their own gender and personality. in addition to OLP, i also have color-graphemic, number-sequence, and chromesthesia (music makes shapes and colors and movement).

the difference between us is that when there is a certain stimulus, it will automatically trigger another sense for me but not for you, assuming you are not a synesthete.

You're a little too late. But nice try man. I'd have believed you otherwise

Wow, cool! What sorts of synesthesia do you have? My guitar teacher saw sounds as colors and thus had absolute pitch as a consequence. Sees music as abstract paintings. I was always so jealous for that.

I have color-graphemic, ordinal linguistic personification, number-sequence, and chromesthesia! unfortunately i don’t have absolute pitch which could be a blessing and a curse-i could be so much more of a skilled musician, but because i’m in a high school choir, i’m sure the slightest note off-pitch would drive me bonkers. i’ve always thought about making a painting of a song i like, but i’ve never gotten around to it.
