The Sysesthesa Interest Club
synesthia is a hamless combination of the senses. If you have ever had experences, like your letters having color, or if you feel other peoples pain, you may have syneshia.

Hey! Can i start a club called "The Sysesthesa Club"?

Ok so:

So most people don't know what synesthia is, and some people hear the word and are like, "woh, whats that? some serious desiese or somthing?" but no, its a hamless combotion of the senses. If you have ever had experences, like your letters having color, or if you feel other peoples pain, you may have syneshia.
These are the different types:
Grapheme-Color Synesthesia

This is one of the most common types of synesthesia. A person who experiences this may associate/see individual letters or numbers with a specific color. Usually, two people won’t report the same color for letters and numbers. However, studies have shown that many synesthetes will see some letters the same way (for example, ‘A‘ is likely to be red).



Sound-to-Color Synesthesia

When sound triggers the visualization of colored, generic shapes, sound-to-color synesthesia is at play. For certain people, the stimuli are limited, and only a few types of sounds will trigger a perception. However, there are cases wherein many different sounds trigger color visualizations. Usually, the perceived colors appear in generic shapes – squares, circles, etc.

Number-Form Synesthesia

A number form is essentially a mental map that consists of numbers. When a person with number-form synesthesia thinks about numbers, a number map is involuntarily visualized. It is sometimes suggested that the number forms are a product of “cross-activation” between regions in the parietal lobe – a part of the brain that is involved in numerical and spatial cognition.

Personification

This type is known as ordinal-linguistic personification, or OLP. An individual who experiences this will associate ordered sequences with various personalities. Ordered sequences may include numbers, letters, months and so on. For example, a person with OLP may look at the letter ‘A’ and think in his mind that ‘A’ is a rude letter. Personally, I think it’s rather amusingly self-deprecating – but that’s just me. Check out Seattle graphic designer, Jesse Jaren’s unique portrayal of ordinal-linguistic synesthesia (shown in the graphic below) in this entertaining and informative blog post. You’ll agree, it’s pretty awesome.



In addition to thinking that certain ordinal sequences have a personality, a synesthete may also imbue a personality within an object. While occurrences have been reported early on, this is a type of synesthesia that has only gained attention from researchers in recent years.

Lexical-Gustatory Synesthesia

Lexical-gustatory synesthesia is one of the more rare synesthesia types. Synesthetes who experience this kind of synesthesia evoke different kinds of tastes when they hear certain words or phonemes.

Just so you know, I have OLP and sound-to-color

Thx!

Hey so I found out that I had synesthisa about 6 months ago. My violin teacher told me. It is really awesome, because when I play music, a color pops into my head. I did some reserch, and found out I also had OLP, so my numbers have personalities. It makes math fun, although the problem 6 times 4 always anoys me
