#Synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon where stimulation of one sensory pathway triggers involuntary experiences in another, such as seeing colors when hearing music or tasting words.
Affecting roughly 3%–4% of the population, it is not a disease but an inherited, harmless blending of senses often described as "crossed wires" in the brain.

Quick poll because this came up on piefed:
How many of you have #synesthesia?
(Synesthesia: stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in other sensory or cognitive pathways
This often manifests as letters and numbers having specific colors in one's brain, but there are other types as well)

Here is something I meant to do for a while, maybe even my whole life :) I have #synesthesia and I see different characters as different colors. Finally, I decided to map them out for fun. Does anyone else have this? #art #sciart

👂🌈 #Synesthesia involves a cross-wiring of senses that allows some individuals to hear #colors or taste words.
Studies indicate that between 1% and 4% of the population experiences these blended perceptions due to unique #brain structures or activity. The trait occurs significantly more often in artists and musicians than in the general population.

My brain...
...Is complicated.
So I have finally pieced the whole thing together and I am essentially the person they point to for #neuroscience curiosity.
I have:
#epilepsy (probably, temporal seizures, working diagnosis).
#tourettes #adhd #autism #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #cptsd and #synesthesia.Oh and brain damage.
If someone wants to pay me to run a bunch of tests...

I just wonder about how context-dependent could be some weird brain processes... One day I watched short video about grapheme-colour #synesthesia. They talked about how it is in fact more connected to meaning of symbols in given context than just shapes and changing context could affect perception.
Well, for me it could work parallelly in most cases. E.g. if I look at other alphabet with partly the same or similar symbols, not always the same meaning, like Cyrillic or Greek. I noticed for some symbols I could "receive" two parallel "signals", one more shape-related, other meaning-related and it doesn't even make it "harder to feel", maybe it was slightly confusing until I realized these two signals can just exist at the same time.

Fine. I’m a freak.

I was so excited the first time I learned about time-space synesthesia; I had assumed that everyone's brain does this because mine does, and I didn't know that it was uncommon or that there was a name for it.
I have a gut feeling that time-space synesthesia is probably disproportionately represented on Fedi.
Who else here can see time?

Music and games have been intertwined since the beginning. Sometimes that relationship can result in something more. In this video I'll explore the legacy of Rez, Synesthesia, and the talented minds behind this unique philosophy.

Does anyone know of mappings from vision to touch? I'd like to map the artistic aesthetics of visual art to haptic feedback, like vibrations and textures felt through the fingertips using a piezoelectric haptic motor.
I'm thinking people with synesthesia that blend visual and haptic information may have ideas about potential mappings between visual sensations like colors and touch sensations like textures or vibrations.
I'm trying to imagine how a blind person could touch visual art.
Anyone have leads?

Because I moved and I would like to introduce myself and find moots, here is my intro!
Hi! I’m Snowberry. I’m a #furry (specifically a #pigeon). Bread is where my thoughts should be. I am a #lesbian, #salmacian, #agender . I have #synesthesia. I’m #disabled, #autistic & #adhd. Mostly shitpost my thoughts into the void and will retoot most things I come across. I have three cats and a loving partner. I love #acnl , #discoelysium , and #Tetris.

CW: Visualisation (eye strain warning) of how two talks at the same time appear in my autistic brain
This is how spoken words appear in my #ActuallyAutistic #synesthesia brain when I hear two talks simultaneously. Instant sensory overload! No matter how hard I try, my brain simply cannot prioritise one sound over another, especially speech.

Fellow freaks! How do you relate?
How anyone can see a year as anything other than a counterclockwise circle is, frankly, beyond me.
