kapusta: good try, but not at all 🙂 its
synesthesia
a sensation produced in one modality when a stimulus is applied to another modality, as when the hearing of a certain sound induces the visualization of a certain color.
some people actually see colors when hearing sounds, hearing different letters & words cause them to visualize different designs. can you imagine it? they can see sound! but when hearing the same sound, each person who has this sees a different color/texture, its dependent on the person.
i read a couple books about this once. it was very interesting & id never heard of it before (so i figured you probably hadn’t either).
