A trait that intertwines the senses, experiencing the world in a different way. In this 'Adventures in Sounds' mini-doc, Alice Allen delves into the fascinating world of Synaethsesia (or Synthesthesia as it's spelt in the USA). We hear from musician Seonaid Aitken, who sees colours simultaneously as she hears sounds, matches musical notes to specific colours, she explains the inspiring ways Synaesthesia has fueled her creative processes. Alice also speaks with UK Synaesthesia Association president James Wannerton, who has a rare and form of Synaesthesia. Sounds for James are unified with tastes, such as tasting certain flavours for every stop name of the London Underground. He gives us an insight into the misconception of synesthesia and shares what it's like living with this extraordinary trait.
