Scientists call it synesthesia, a neurological the way your emotions can color the music that you hear. Whether you're listening to Bach or the blues, human brains are wired to make music-color connections depending on how the melodies make us feel, according to new research from the University of California - Berkeley, reports a May 16, 2013 news release by Yasmin Anwar from the University of California, Berkeley, "Bach to the blues, our emotions match music to colors." For instance, Mozart’s jaunty Flute Concerto No. 1 in G major is most often associated with bright yellow and orange, whereas his dour Requiem in D minor is more likely to be linked to dark, bluish gray.

So a classmate of mine wrote about this for his college essay. Seeing numbers as colors or something.
APPARENTLY, it's sign of genius.
My reaction....wait this exists? So this is why I am so fascinated by neuroscience. Humans are naturally crazy. Imagine how artistic these people must be. I'm jealous. They get to see the world in a different light. I wonder how it would be to not live a mundane life.To have a new lease on life.
I THINK they should make a TV series on people with these kinds of disorders or maybe like a book and just show us how they view life. That would be pretty cool, in my opinion. I would watch it over any show on MTV. More like any reality show. This could be a legit reality show.
Legit-icles. Yes.
