I hear color.

Eh...sort of.

I have grapheme-color synesthesia, which is a common form of sensory pairing. Being a musician, and understanding what semantics go into understanding and learning music add a whole dimension to the idea of metaphor, perception and language. I hope you enjoy this video essay on everything Synesthesia.

The book I referenced the most in this video - definitely check it out if you enjoyed my video. A great overview!


If you really dig this video, DEFINITELY check out Dr. Ramachandran's lecture, this is amazing.
