Hearing Colors? Tasting Shapes? This Is Synesthesia
Synesthesia is a condition that causes the senses to blend, with one sense (such as sound) triggering another (such as vision). For instance, someone with synesthesia may hear music and see swirls of colors or eat food and taste shapes in their mouth. Synesthesia usually appears during early childhood. Roughly 3 to 5 percent of the population experiences some form of it. This condition is often associated with excellent memory and creativity. Notable artists who have claimed to have synesthesia include Vincent van Gogh and Billie Eilish.
