@madargon@is-a.cat#Synesthesia and #writing stories...
I imagine a character for my story. Somehow that vision develops itself so I would eventally see their appearance.
I wanted to call them X or Y. But now I feel I cannot! Because colours of these chosen names match badly with their hair colour! 
Sometimes it could break my vision...
Anyone can relate?

Album Out Now! @MOULE@moule.worldSay what you will about speech being silver and silence being golden, but the letters A, F, H, L, X and the number 4 are green and nothing can convince me otherwise.
Album Out Now! @MOULE@moule.worldI wonder if whoever coined the phrase "Speech is silver, silence is golden" was a #Synaesthete.
#Synesthesia is linked to large and extensive differences in brain structure and function as determined by whole-brain biomarkers derived from the HCP (Human Connectome Project) cortical parcellation approach https://academic.oup.com/cercor/article/34/11/bhae446/7901211 "intracortical myelin being a particularly strong predictor"

@BootsChantilly Exactly! And I am with him ... Fridays are definitely green! #Synesthesia
“… it's more like a subconscious software constantly running through my mind.” YES! That’s exactly it! #Synesthesia https://www.popsugar.com/health/synesthesia-what-its-like-49385344
I just updated the #Synesthesia article on my blog that a conversation with @cordova5029 (@Xandorian @dodecahedron) inspired me to write last year. A few more mappings have been added, a broken audio link was fixed, and he/him pronouns were changed to they/them. https://spews.seedy.cc/2023/07/14/the-sound-of-music-synesthesia-and-me/

Album Out Now! @MOULE@moule.worldAs a synesthete, I love when music sound like the colours orange, blue, or purple! 
Album Out Now! @MOULE@moule.worldI’m a #synaesthete (in particular grapheme-colour #synaesthesia), which means whenever I see a symbol, my brain can “see” a colour from it. It’s been the same colours since childhood!
For me, straight line symbols tend to be blue, angular symbols tend to be green, “bendy” symbols tend to be yellow, and rounder symbols tend to be red.
Here’s a chart showing which letters and numbers are what colours according to my synesthesia!
@purplepadma I don’t have a favorite number, but I do have preferred numbers/number combinations based on their “colors”.
The mechanisms underlying conditioning of phantom percepts differ between those with hallucinations and #synesthesia https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-024-53663-3 Using "repeated pairing of checkerboards with tones, and gratings with colours".
One of the nice benefits of my #synesthesia is that it helps me create and remember complicated passwords.
The way some letters and numbers bend and reverberate and collide…

Album Out Now! @MOULE@moule.worldOne of the cool things about being a #synesthete is that you can quickly find something in a list by looking at what colours each word are.
Just now I found a sound effect I forgot the name of because I knew it started with a "yellow letter" (D), and the colour I see in the first letter turns the whole word into that colour! 
Other symbols my brain associates yellow with are B, K, P, S, 2, 5, and 6. #Synesthesia
Hey fedifolks, help me with this. My girlfriend laughs at me because I say that even numbers are round (think Bouba) and soft and odd numbers are pointy and rough (think Kiki). Do you agree?
Feel free to boost for more numbers.
Curious. “The Phantom Tollbooth” is a lot about #synesthesia: letters that have taste, an orchestra that only plays color, sounds that manifest as objects.
