Synaesthesia
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/science/hearingcolours.shtml
Strangely, I am recommending this site, though I haven't listened to the Real Audio, the core of these pages (I don't have RA installed for various reasons) -- so someone listen to them and tell me how good they are :) Anyway, I'm interested in synaesthesia, partly because I experience music partially by seeing and feeling objects. But the question of whether you experience reality similar to others is a question I've always had. If we could somehow get an idea how others experience, we could be much better empaths and communicators. Don't you think that our ability to communicate and understand others has great room for improvement individually and as a species?
