None of this is to say that I belong in that category at all. If you just take the time to ask supergenius people, you’ll notice that they, their learning process, the way they process information, is slightly different. That’s one who sees things, sees numbers or characters in a different way. If you ask them what their process is, especially people that can add or divide 10-digit numbers, it’s because they see those numbers in colors, or sometimes the sizes will vary. People with synesthesia, we don’t really notice until someone brings it up and then someone else says, “Well, no, I don’t see colors when I hear music,” and that’s when you realize something’s different.īut if you go up and you look, you’ll realize that most genius mathematicians, they’re synesthetes. But is there one in real life right there in front of you? No. If I tell everyone right now to picture a red truck, you’re gonna see one. You have no idea what you’re seeing in your mind if you don’t really take the time to talk about it. Now, to some people, it’s like, “Oh, that’s crazy.” But let me explain something to you. You’re seeing colors when you’re hearing sounds? So when you’re hearing music, you see it in color. What do you mean? What is that like? What are you experiencing that I might not be? Sometimes some of them stay stuck together, and for a visual and auditorial synesty, it just means that the visual nerve ending and the auditorial nerve ending are still connected. And then they prune, right? So all of your sensory nerve endings are kind of connected, as I understand it, and then they sort of prune when you’re, like, 1. And all it is is where - when you’re born, your nerve endings are, sort of, all melded together, if you will. And there’s a lot of people who are not necessarily - they’re undiscovered artists, and they have it, too. What is that?įirst of all, let’s dispel the connotation behind the phrase “medical condition.” Most artists have it. And I wanted to ask - you have a medical condition called synesthesia. You talk about your mind working like a painter. This is just a snippet of much longer radio interview. The program uses machine learning and Kandinsky’s extensive color theories to create an interactive experience that interprets what the painter might have heard when working on or viewing this painting.Singer, songwriter, and producer Pharrell Williams discusses his experience with chromesthesia, or sound-color synesthesia. Now, a new project from Google Arts + Culture, “ Play a Kandinsky,” invites users to learn about the condition and “play” his masterpiece, “ Yellow-Red-Blue” (1925). Kandinsky’s paintings are vibrant, abstract, and fluidly geometric compositions that seek to capture the symphonic experience of his senses. This was famously the case for painter Wassily Kandinsky, who was inspired by one of his colorful visions of a symphony to switch from a law career to study art. Typical examples are perceiving numbers as different hues, or conflating audio input with particular shapes and colors. It manifests differently in every synesthete, but generally connotes an unusual activation of multiple senses in response to stimuli. Synesthesia, present in 2-4% of the global population and poetically translated as a “joining of the senses,” is one of the most artistically darling mental conditions.
