Andre Louis<p>About to record the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Synaesthesia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Synaesthesia</span></a> episode of our podcast this morning, so any last thoughts you want Kirsten <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://universeodon.com/@MoonCat" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>MoonCat</span></a></span> to read out, please get them in now.<br>This has been a very interesting thread indeed.</p>
Andre Louis<p>Edit so people get to it first, I'd love to discuss these in my podcast if people don't mind. My wife (who's sighted) doesn't get it.<br>My possibly bizarre version of <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Synaesthesia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Synaesthesia</span></a> means that words have feeling associated with them, as in my fingers can actually feel what that means.<br>Having just heard the word 'Utah' in a youtube video, it reminded me that both 'Utah' and 'Uber' feel the same.<br>They both represent an average car tire with very new treads. No, don't ask why, I have no idea.<br>Some days of the week also have their associated feelings too, such as Friday being a huge soft spongy ball, Saturday being a Yale lock, Monday being a large camping-style water barrel you can pull along behind you, and Tuesday being the lid of an old-fashioned sweet jar with those huge glass lids that had a ball for a handle, if anyone remembers those.</p><p>I haven't heard of anyone else with this particular version of synaesthesia, so I'll just put my madness out there to start a conversation.<br>Go wild.</p>

My experience is that the result varies. <br>So does she always see the same colour for the same note or chord. and can she describe the colour accurately. <br>I'd suggest looking at pantone colours as they can be identified then coded easily.</p><p><a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/CodingColours" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CodingColours</span></a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Synaesthesia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Synaesthesia</span></a></p>

The Doctor<p>Hey, folks.</p><p>An old friend of mine is having some trouble getting his art in front of new eyes. He does a lot of surrealist and horror pen-and-ink drawings. I have a couple of his prints in my collection.</p><p>If you like his style, would you maybe consider buying one of them? Or commissioning him to do a piece?</p><p>:boost_ok:​</p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?vanity=100075857295587&amp;set=a.229401872931721" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">facebook.com/media/set/?vanity</span><span class="invisible">=100075857295587&amp;set=a.229401872931721</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hackers.town/tags/surreal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>surreal</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>art</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/horror" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>horror</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/commissions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>commissions</span></a> <a href="https://hackers.town/tags/synaesthesia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>synaesthesia</span></a></p>
