synaesthesia (or synesthesia)
#10
oh wow awesome :D
@empirefantasy
yeah pretty much that. and the way you see numbers are pretty cool =P
what do you see with letters? i don't really see much with letters...

@Prince freeza
well it doesnt actually work that way. it just works that way and you can't help it or purposely think that everytime you see it. it's like you can't control it. its just like when a guy sees his girlfriend, he feels love for her without trying, the same for me when seeing numbers, colours kinda of showup in my 'minds eye'

@silva
lol that test wouldnt work on me well because my 2 and 5 have really similar colours, =P
well for the numbers...its hard to explain. sometimes when i think about numbers, its almost like the colour conjures itself in my 'minds eye' (visually in my mind/mentally). i can't control it, it just happens. its like the number and colour are one and the same.

@Reaper
=P, well im not gonna argue with what colours you see your numbers because everyones different. and that test is used to find out how well synaethetes perform looking at the numbers. so they record how long it takes for you to work it out.

@Alblaka
ahah well of course there are people who are non-synaesthetes. doesn't mean you can experience it. one way to experience synesthaesia is to use drugs like LSD or something...yeah not advised but possible. but it depends on the person as well.

@Ramond
i don't think its synaesthesia. i think that its really involuntary, so you just can't help it. i dont know but maybe in your case, its just when you're listening to the music. when you try to listen to it carefully or pay more attention and take it in and what your mind does to help you take it in is by picturing the piano keyboard. if it were synaesthesia, maybe everytime you hear music, a keyboard is there in your head without you even thinking.

for me, i've discovered that i have graphime synaesthesia (letters, numbers words and stuff. most common synaesthesia of all types). i've been thinking carefully about how letters and numbers show up for me and i realise that the only reason why only thinking of individual numbers for me conjures colours is because my mind gets jumbled up with combinations of numbers/letters. the letter to me have all these speckled mixes and spots of different colours, with which entire words form a particular colour but its not very strong on me. for large groups of numbers, it gets jumbled up too and becomes a mixture of the colours.
another thing i noticed about my numbers is the kind of colours they are. all of them are colours that i would see a lot when i was little. yellow lines outside, yellow lights, white light, black roads, blue sky, green grass and trees, orange bark trees, dark red bark trees.
~its been a long time coming~
