A long misunderstood phenomenon in cognitive psychology is synesthesia,
the anomalous blending of the senses and synesthetes-people with synesthesia,
have the exceptional power to hear colors, feel sounds and taste shapes.
Line Synesthesia differs from drug-induced hallucinations in that synesthetic
(5) sensations are highly consistent for particular synesthetes. Landmark new
research has documented that synesthetic colors are perceived in much the same
way that nonsynesthetic individuals perceive real colors and synesthetic color
differences can facilitate performance on tasks in which real color differences
make easy performance for non-synesthetes and can impair performance on
(10) tasks in which real color differences diminish quality of performance for
nonsynesthetes, but the neural mechanism by which synesthetic colors are
automatically bound to alphanumeric characters remains a mystery. One
possibility is that synesthesia might stem from some kind of deviant cross-wiring
between digit and letter processing areas and color processing areas in
(15) neighboring, unlocated regions of the human brain.
