Apparently, today - 2 July 2023 - is Synesthesia Awareness Day:

O–Ton: "Das ist ein bisschen schwer zu erklären…"
Ich so: "Nö, das war doch ganz einfach und verständlich."

TV–Tipp, sehr gute Doku: 'Synästhesie - Leben mit verknüpften Sinnen'

Late night I smelt lilacs while listening to an audiobook.
This afternoon, doing an online jigsaw of a turtle, I smelt a fishy, reptile smell - familiar from schooldays spent cleaning out the Xenopus toads' tanks.

They go deeper than the "what is your writing process" thing.

How I love good talk like this. Makes me wish I could meet up with you both at some coffee shop. 🙂 ☕️

p.s. I have synaesthesia so "seeing" when I write has multiple levels. 👁👁🧠

@braveinnovationist Fascinating. I’ve always had #synaesthesia. It’s nice to see a recent article on it. Thanks!

"People are different," says Rothen, "and we need to consider those individual differences. #Synaesthesia is a neat way to study differences in perception and their relation to higher cognitive functions such as #memory and language processing."

@hisham_hm Why do I remember reading a thing back in the early '90's about "why are the w's green?" and it being about #synaesthesia because of course W's are green.

@Giagia

Wow! I think this would drive me a little nuts. 🙃 I have synesthesia & sensory stuff can be pretty bizarre, even painful.

Volcano, the new piece I created with Comakid with wonderful cello performances by Lily Hope, is being presented as a sound installation for loudspeakers and vibrating floor at the Attenborough arts centre in Leicester today, as part of the Aural Diversity Workshop 5.

You can find out more about the piece and listen to it here:
https://www.ninadanon.com/volcano

The webpage also contains a listening guide, letting you know what to expect from the piece and highliting potential triggers for people with sensitive hearing, misophonia etc.

This is my first time writing one, so I'd really appreciate the feedback from fellow #neurodivergent and #auraldiverse people (there's a link to a feedback form on the listening guide).

This is the first piece I wrote as part of my investigation on the #auraldiversity of #Neurodivergent #musicians for my #PhD at Goldsmiths.

If this is something that interests you, I have written a blog post about our creative process on this:
https://www.ninadanon.com/post/crafting-volcano

#Synaesthesia can teach us a lot about our individual perception of the world around us and how our view of #reality is a #subjective experience. Some people hear #colours, smell #flavours, or see shapes based on temperature.

This video follows an artist who sees colours and movement in written words, sounds, and numbers.

A black, E white, I red, U green, O blue: vowels,

I love engineering. Any tech opened, stripped down, wires exposed gets my boost. Third pic is #technology_candy to me. I can actually taste #licorice looking at it. Whaddya call that? #Synaesthesia or some shit? Yup. That. Yum.

hello, fellow chlorochrous creatures. i am trying to navigate this space and grow some community here! i live in the pnw. i love metalsmithing, especially synclastic and anticlastic raising and fold forming.

i am passionate about keeping bees, building soil health, tending to pollinator/wildlife habitat and bioremediation of brown fields. i grow perennial edibles, medicinal botanicals and aromatic plants that i distill with my trusty copper alembic or enfleurage to compose botanical scents with.

i design bilingual (en/es) curriculum and practice regenerative, whole systems-informed horticultural therapy with youth in the foster system and carceral institutions. well, i did and will do again. currently i am in a rather extended process of recovering from spinal cord surgery, so i am mostly prone while my body mends. i have a eds so it’s a slow process. i am pretty much on pause right now. which makes me treasure whatever kind of intellectual and creative stimulation i can get!

lower case has been my default since i first read bell hooks as a wee lass. now i just learned why the first letter of each word should be capitalized in hashtags - to make it more coherent for people who use screen readers. so, here is a lengthy list of things i’d love to connect around!
