Well mentally but not actually there lol Does anyone else see music in shapes any what nots? |
||||||||

yeah i tend to visually (mentally) sequence music as i hear it. Kicks are often variations on spheres whereas snares are often cylindrical. Everything else depends more on the texture of the sound. |

I mentally see colors, images, and shapes yeah. It's easy to hear when a sound is metallic, whether its round or edgy, or warm or cold, and in many cases apply colors to it like yellow, black, blue.. When I hear acoustic instruments I'm more likely to see a color.. A guitar sound doesn't relly have a shape. With electronic music and especially glitchy abstract music it's very easy to see geometrical structures and such though. It's pretty cool. |

On the note of pot... I listened to one of my songs I made recently while I smoked a synthetic THC called K2...HOLY SHIT I WAS BAKED... anyways I put on the song, turned off all the lights cranked it all the way up and sat down. Soon I imaged the mans voice in the song to be a bald man's head but instead of skin he had ripped leather that was stitched together loosely and had one big rip on the right side of his head right above the ear. Every time the song said"Why am I doing this" the head would go to the voice. Soon I was very anxious and turned off the song. Dubstep has a huge impact on the images while I listen to it. |

Yet again someone has replied with synesthesia...weird stuff. |

Oh yeah last night was weird.. I closed my eyes and was listening to music while i tried to fall asleep and I could see almost a visualizer (like on itunes or Windows media player) but more so on shapes instead of random colors going to the frequencies of the music. Sounds with delays looked cool :P Well I'm done with my stories. |

Um. How is it weird. You asked about visualizations in music, which is what synesthesia is [traditionally]. Thats like saying weird if someone were to post a response about food in a thread about eating. |

I dont think my experience of qualifies as synesthesia. I do "see" all that I described but only because I'm very visual about music. I always attach more meaning to it by adding story, images and concepts etc to it. I guess the key difference (besides the actual experience) is that mine arent really involuntary. I try to culture my ability to experience music this way.. |

Neuroscientist Ramachandran argues that everyone has synaesthesia to some extent, some people just have it more than others. He argues this by showing to an audience a picture of an abstract blobby shape juxtaposed with a abstract rugged shape with sharp edges. He said that one was named Booboo and the other was named Kiki and to guess which one had which name according to their natural inclinations. 99% say the blobby one is Booboo and the other was Kiki. It's because our brains all have sense-associations. With actual synaesthetes, the effect is so extreme that there is more than just an association, but actual sensory crossovers. I myself am mildly synaesthetic, but it's pretty much only with music and with time. I see music as shapes and colors moving and morphing. It's intensified with drugs. I also perceive the year as a circle, and weeks and months are smaller circles inside the big year-circle. Months have colors, and days of the week also have colors. So I see April 20th as being a specific point on these circles, and the passing of time is just this point moving on these circles. |
