Preferred term

synesthesia  

Definition(s)

  • Synesthesia is a neurological condition in which stimulation of one sensory modality or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, conscious experiences in a second, unstimulated pathway. For example, in music → color synesthesia, auditory inputs cause synesthetes to see colors, which typically include movement and texture. [Source: Encyclopedia of the Mind; Synesthesia]
