Fri, 13 Apr 2012 03:22:00 +0000 http://normanmailersociety.org/?p=975#comment-268 I don't see why "it could ONLY be understood" (my emphasis) as synesthesia.  I have the same - whatever it is (and I don't mean synesthesia, I know perfectly well what synesthesia is) - and yet no sense of mine seems to be displaced. I simply have an unusually strong eye and affinity for colours, shapes and sensory data in general; and I have, indeed, prepared food (for myself only)  based on its colour. I don't see sounds as colours, or viceversa, nothing of the kind. I simply LOVE the impact and effect of colours and shapes. That's all. I don’t see why “it could ONLY be understood” (my emphasis) as synesthesia.
