Synaesthesia

[Badge]

I associate music and colour, one of my friends who works in lighting said I'd be really good at gig lighting because of this.

Most musicians and anyone infact would probably relate colours and music (chords, keys, notes etc) because of the 'feel' or 'texture'. I'm currently doing some composition work on seasons and because of this I am relating chords and colours. So for summer I would use 'warm' notes, major keys, which to me are red, yellow, orange etc, then winter 'cold', blue, minor, diminished, etc.

I think things like this are greatly influenced by memory and the subliminal mind....mebbe

Not me. Not in the slightest...

This might explain a lot about my lack of musical abilities.

Please don't use our alphabet

Synesthesia (also spelled synæsthesia or synaesthesia, plural synesthesiae or synaesthesiae)—from the Ancient Greek σύν (syn), "together," and αἴσθησις (aisthēsis), "sensation"

pfft your alphabet. Ever read Æsop's Fables?

Hey, if you love it so much why don't you put it in your alphabet? No? Didn't think so! thinking yer too good for the æ.

I have put it! That's why I edited the thread title

I'm colorblind so I don't associate anything with colors.

I'm colorblind too! That's what's so weird about it. xD

And it's not just numbers either. Letters; and now that I'm learning Japanese...

I've got this. When I was a little girl my family thought i was crazy and would ask me what colour each number was as like a whimsical little trick, i think the thought i was just eccentric, I was shocked to learn that people thought it was strange. Then like 5 years ago my friend saw a documentary on it and rung me up to say "hey ur not as crazy as we thought"
