    I almost cried watching her performance because the song it means so much more when you see colors with it. If I had that gift I’m not sure I would have wanted it any other way.

    I loved her performance. However, I wish they would cover other forms of Synesthesia or at least mention them, for clarity's sake. Lots of people don't know they have the other variations, since they are not as obvious and often less common. This variation of synesthesia is called Chromesthesia.

      I had No idea that I had it until about a year ago (I didn't know it was a Thing). I only have a mild version of Associative Synethesia!! I associate numbers and letters to certain colors. Never caused problems at all. In fact, I wish I had more of it, especially the kind with Music, because I'm a musician and that would be pretty awesome!!

      @@Bromadlife i think i MIGHT have like very mild Chromesthesia bcs I don't associate colors with specific notes only sounds or songs in general, and sometimes I don't at all.

      CikisHelyzet RIGHT?!! It took me 15 years to figure out that I’m not crazy and that I have auditory tactile synesthesia, where you can feel or touch sound. It was such an uncommon form of synesthesia that I couldn’t figure it out for a while

    I heard this topic on BrainStuff and mentioned that it is not a disorder but a normal trait of those who have it. It has so much advantages and annoying disadvantages such as tasting an awful food or hating a name coz it's associated with a disgusting thing(synesthete perception). It's not always a positive thing to have it coz they experience it's down sides as well. But I still think that it's kinda awesome to have such trait. Hope this makes sense. 😊

      Joy Jimenez yes I agree. I am blessed only experiencing the benefits of it like remembering stuff easily but it still blows my mind every day when I realise that I feel/see something new and I haven't yet noticed even though it's been like that since I've been little 🤗

    I did not know that Pharrell Williams has this and it makes perfect sense because he makes such awesome music and doesn't even think of it, he only makes the music because it sounds, looks and feels good and he says that the people are who make the music and make him an artist because they are the ones that buy the music. I think it is a great quality to have for musical artists such as Hova as well.

  • @rickvacha3158

    Ever since I was a kid I have had overlapping thoughts that never made any sense . Its usually when I do a specific task that an image of a location that I have been at in my life will pop into my head at the same time . Its almost always a street or building . When I am done with the task the image goes away. Here are three very random examples. When I watch the Judge Judy show. A specific street corner from the town I grew up in enters my head , when I'm done watching ,it goes away. Another is when I play the piano, a railroad crossing not far from the intersection will enter my head. When I'm done playing is disappears . Another is any time I read or watch anything about the Titanic the back of this school building close to the other locations will pop into my head when I stop it goes away. I am 45 and this has happened my whole life and with hundreds of images but none are related . Can someone tell me is this a form of synesthesia?? I am left handed and used to write backwards all the time when I was little. When I was a kid I was into cars and when I would look at the front or back of a car each one had a specific sound to me based on the shape of the car. I did out grow that. Am I just really weird ??? I'm sure someone here has some info. Thank you !

      I associate places and/or people with specific tasks as well! Not sure if this is a form of synesthesia, however I do have other various forms of synesthesia so I would not be surprised!

    • @mediabymogi
      @mediabymogi 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is definitely synesthesia! This doesn't happen to me anymore (I read that as you grow older, some types can fade), but when I was younger, whenever I'd have a cough attack while lying down in bed, I'd always have this distinct image of a red and orange rooster on the top right corner of my mind's eye. My mother's laugh would make me see a bowl made of bamboo filled with blueberries. Probably not related to what you're experiencing, but it make me think of that :D

    • @evasmojang
      @evasmojang 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I kinda do something similar but instead of places its colors with tasks or memories

    Huh, I thought I only had grapheme synesthesia. It turns out that I have "music to colour" synesthesia too. Both are associative though. My morning runs would be a lot more interesting if I saw a vast array colours when listening to my music.

    Only one thing wrong with an otherwise fantastic speech, I would like to question whether or not Synaesthesia (English spelling) is a condition. I always thought of it to be more of a neurological 'trait' or a 'phenomenon'. I think this due to the fact that everyone has the condition in infancy and also there is nothing technically wrong with your brain. I would like to know what other people's view are on this? Disorder or trait?

    • @amandastewart1701
      @amandastewart1701 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      I fully agree. As long as it isn't interfering with learning or causing any functional deficits, I would characterise it as a trait, as you said.

      Chloe Fennessy I understand what you're saying and I agree in some cases, but as far as I know I think that in some cases it can also be detrimental too.

    • @Bromadlife
      @Bromadlife 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Definitely Not a Disorder!! What are the "Disadvantages??" None as far as I can tell. I see it as being an Advantage or, at very least, a Neutral trait

  • @jbaby283
    @jbaby283 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Omg this is so weird because I play the piano and I use colours to kind of "detect" what notes to play (I play by ears, dk how to read notes) and to me C sounds like an orange, D is blue, E is white-ish yellow, F is green, G is bright fuschia, A is red and B is purple, which is almost the same to yours. Damn this is weird. I always know seeing colours in music is weird, I just didn't know people that have synesthesia seeing music (almost) the same way.
