synesthesia does not exist. It is impossible to recieve data through a sense organ that was not designed for that sense organ. You can, say, FEEL sound waves when you really increase the bass, but this is still feeling, not hearing. What happens is association. For example the sun is yellow and how. So when you see yellow, you think "hot". etc.

I've got that issue, same one with the talk of infinite parallel universes. It's very interesting, makes you think about the nature of sensory perseptions which we take for granted, and why we are made to percieve different sences in the specific ways that we do.

Yeah i have read about that stuff before. Some scientists belive that the human race is developing a sixth sense and that in a very distant future we will comunicate less with words and more with colours and stuff.
i don't know what to think...

your assumption that it is about RECEIVING data is wrong, I think.
its all about the PROCESSING of the data - in other words, the brain translates the incoming data wrongly.

see, I disagree with that... I think it is possible... because, the brain is what interprets the senses... the sense receptors, like taste buds, our eyes, etc, just receive the sense... the brain interprets it all... thus, I feel that it is possible for senses to kind of get mixed up like this...

well taste is an obvious uh, unique specialist in data reception. how are you going to hear sound in your taste buds? so you're saying you can PROCESS taste so that you interpret it as, like yellow or somthing? I want to read a lot about brains. They have been getting more and more fascinating to meesh.

plus there are lobes for specific senses, like the parietal lobes for hearing. I'm no expert though.

lol yes synesthesia does exist.. it doesn't involve recieving sensory input from an organ thats not supposed to send it
it happens in your brain
maybe you should find out what it is before you go around telling people it doesn't exist...

btw i think the article mentions that LSD can temporarily cause something like synesthesia
does anyone know if shrooms have been known too? i guess its hard to tell if whatever effect those drugs have, if its genuinely synesthesia... ppl would have to do LSD in laboratories :)

"so there" lol
well for all we know its all an elaborate hoax...
how much would i personally have to know before im allowed to be sure?
btw have you actually read the article yet? im assuming you haven't read anything else about it considering you dont even know what it is...

i have had this kind of experience on LSD but not mushrooms. however i have done much more LSD than shrooms and not every time i did LSD did i experience synesthesia.
One experience on LSD was when i was about 2 or 3 hours into a pretty hefty dose and we were drinking rum. Every time i tasted the rum i would hear this high pitch squeeling/ringing in.
i never drank rum with mushrooms.

synaesthesia can occur as a result of certain brain disorders, also, but it is not uncommon for a normal, healthy person to experience this. for example, every now and again when i am going to sleep, but while still awake, a sharp sound in the darkness and silence will trigger a flash of light in my visual field.

Mushrooms produce this effect only when combined with marijuana.

Yeah, especially if I have headphones on this happens. If i'm going to sleep listening to music and a song fades out and then is silent for a time, and then the next song starts abruptly and loudly, colors sometimes flash in my field of vision, mostly if I'm not expecting it.
