why are you talking about what you do to yourself in the middle of the night we don't want to know that
because that is not a special talent it is called empathy, but i have more of it. some people have more of it than me. synthaesiacrapness is a big lie unless you're real high or something
They should cover her ears so she can't hear and put her in a room with 10 different doorways and play a sound she has ;seen; before in one of the doorways. She will obviously enter the doorway the sound is coming from without hearing it.
Give her at least 8-10 attempts. If she's incorrect each time, we know she's lying.
"i can fly"
"i can run fast"
"i'm super strong, what can you do?"
"...taste music"
Being a synesthete myself and having been in Asia several times, I know well, that it is much more common there, to be understood perfectly well, in whatever syn you have.
I did not even realise to be different most of the time. But I have to admit, it was mostly in artist-circles.
Yet, at that time I thought it all to be much more common than I know now (even the word synesthesia was unknown to me).
I just thought, their senses work better than hereabout.
I gave it a test, when I met T. Leary for the 7up rec. He gave in and lost his balance for a while.
It would be wonderful if I can express myself even further to people visually with the music I play, but I still just don't believe it.
