I just wonder about how context-dependent could be some weird brain processes... One day I watched short video about grapheme-colour #synesthesia. They talked about how it is in fact more connected to meaning of symbols in given context than just shapes and changing context could affect perception.

Well, for me it could work parallelly in most cases. E.g. if I look at other alphabet with partly the same or similar symbols, not always the same meaning, like Cyrillic or Greek. I noticed for some symbols I could "receive" two parallel "signals", one more shape-related, other meaning-related and it doesn't even make it "harder to feel", maybe it was slightly confusing until I realized these two signals can just exist at the same time.

Fine. I’m a freak.

Watch out @skinnylatte they’re trying to pidgeonhole you, too!

Synesthesia isn't just in your mind. The body reacts as if the colors were real.

Pupil size in people with synesthesia changed depending on how bright or dark the perceived colors were.

Cochlear spiral spectrogram — 381 frequency bins mapped to a Fermat spiral, each frame revealing the hidden geometry of sound.

Built in Python. Every frequency finds its place on the spiral, just as it does in the human cochlea.

I was so excited the first time I learned about time-space synesthesia; I had assumed that everyone's brain does this because mine does, and I didn't know that it was uncommon or that there was a name for it.

I have a gut feeling that time-space synesthesia is probably disproportionately represented on Fedi.

Who else here can see time?
