Color Synesthesia

[Syvelocin]

Anyone out there with it? I never knew it existed until a singer I know of talked about it, and realized it's been like that with me for as long as I could remember.

Color synesthesia is a form of synesthesia in which an individual's perception of numbers and letters is associated with the experience of colors. Like all forms of synesthesia, color synesthesia is involuntary, consistent, and memorable.

It looks something like this for me.

Color Synesthesia is a kind of synesthesia, where the perception of a person of numbers and letters corresponding to the experience of colors.Color Synesthesia is involuntary and consistent memorable.Color Synesthesia is one of the most common forms of synesthesia and because of the extent of knowledge about the visual system.Synesthesia is the phenomenon by which stimulation of one sense modality gives rise to a sensation in another sense modality. The term "Synesthesia" comes from the Greek vision (together) and aisthesis (perception).

I actually find it as an invaluable asset to those who have this disorder.

Those who do have it will have better time memorizing things, and are, somewhat, better in Math and or things that requires your left brain.

I came to know of colour synaesthesia via Psychedelia(the same key word I found out Virtual teen).
