OMG SAME. what did you see. i saw: 1: very uptight old and wise 2: wife of 1 very fashionable and wears makeup. posh. 3 the toddler of 1 and 2 very annoying 4 the older brother of 3 less annoying. is into ben ten is about 8 5: the older sister. hates her brothers and is very stereotypically millennial 6 the friend of 5. very shy and doesn’t talk much. she has long hair 7 the older older sister of the family. very very sophisticated and knows what she’s doing 8: a man who’s a bit nervous and shy and stumbles on his words (has a crush of nine 9 very uptight women. won’t take anyone’s shit and then it repeats
I'll have several categories. -NUMBERS and PERSONALITIES/QUALITIES- 1: A asshole with a big ego. 2: That person who just gives and gives and gives and is super nice. Basically Keanu. 3: A midget asswipe. Has a nasally voice and is pretty uptight. Egotistical. 4: A nice person, not too wise but nice. Doesn't take initiative. 4 is friend with 5. 5: A young person, who is intelligent and is somewhat gullible at the same time. They have large ambitions. Easily led astray. 6: A somewhat popular but yet nice person who wants to help. A deep and intellectual person. 7: A giant cunt billionaire that lives in a penthouse 8: A very tall and somewhat overweight person who has a low voice and is a little annoying because of their clumsiness and stupidity, but has their heart in the right place. 9: Circus magician. 10: Basically Albert Einstein, very smart. 11: An old, and wise wizard. A hermit who lives atop a tower in a field. 12: Kinda like 8, but more big and stupid than anything else. Will ever so often save the day. 13: A cunty superhero who gets all the fame. 14: A superhero who gets less fame than 13 but isn't a cunt. anything beyond that falls into these statements Odd: Greedy dirtbag Even: Nice -unless- Is divisible by ten. If divisible by 10, then is a clone made my 10. And is basically the crossing of 10 with whatever number. It is a giant, moves slow and is somewhat wiser that the plain number you would get when dividing by 10. ie. 70: A giant somewhat Lovecraftian iteration of 7, who is wise and godlike, and beyond understanding. (7 is the worst and also best of the numbers if you haven't caught on.) -INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NUMBERS- These actions are represented by multiplication. Also as a note, there is something important to say before going on. For example, take 2x5: 2 is being nice to 5 and makes 5 feel better about self and makes 5 be nicer to others as a result. 10 is the output of this and is the now the nicer 5. It is important to note that this 10 is different from the scientist 10. This 10 is completely independent and represents the result of the interaction between 2 and 5. Therefor, for any other number that can be created by multiplying two numbers 1-14 together doesn't inherently represent the interaction of those two numbers, but is that number and falls into the 1st category, unless it is in a problem, ie. 2x5=10. Only when written in a problem that way, will the number be the result of the interaction between those two numbers. Also, the first number in the multiplication problem will be the determining number that decides what action is happening (excepting special cases.) 4*3 =/= 3*4 3*4 is the 3 * Anything (anything being 4 in this case), while 4*3 is the 4 * Anything. As a result of this, I prefer the 3 to come after anything else (i prefer 7*3 to 3*7.) 1 * Anything: Nobody gives a fuck about 1 because 1 is a cunt, so nothing happens. 2 * Anything: They say some encouraging things and are nice to the number. 2 * 7: 7's birthday cake. 2 * 8: 8 is trying to help make 7 a birthday cake, but fucks up. 3 * Anything: 3 is being combined with the other number (which is being made happen by 10). In 3x5=15, 15 is the abomination you get when you combine 3 and 5. It is important to note that with the output of 3 * Anything, that it will bare more resemblance and a more similar personality to the Anything than to the 3. 4 * Anything: 4 is kinda just reluctantly going on an adventure with the other number. 5 * Anything: 5 is using the other number as a tool to progress more towards their goal, but not harming anyone while doing so. 5 * 4: Since 4 is friends with 5, they decide to help 5 make a house. 20 is the friendship. 5 * 6: 5 likes 6 and helps them in their personal journey to find inner peace. 5 * 7: 7 invited 5 up to the top of their penthouse, and they are both in a bathtub. 7 is trying to lure 5 into becoming their apprentice. 7 * Anything: Doing what 5 does, but actually harming other numbers. 9 * Anything: Does a magic trick. 10 * Anything -or- The whole cloning thing. Anything * 10 11 * Anything: 11 does it's magic and creates a perfect clone of the anything, instead of a Lovecraftian monster. -ADDITION- Order doesn't matter here anymore, it just determines from which point of view everything is seen. 8 + 6: 8 holds a surprise birthday party for 6. It's badly put together and the other number think it was kinda shitty, but 6 realizes 8 tried and comforts 8 while 8 is crying because 8 is sad that they couldn't make 6 a nice cake or party. 6 says that doesn't matter, and that matters is the 8 tried. 8 + 7: 7 takes pity on 8 and decides to help them make a birthday cake for 6, but 8 is clumsy and fucks up something and 7 gets pissed off and leaves. -SQUARING- Basically its the number getting a power-up. 7*7=49, 49 is the power-up.
Well, I had it as well: 1. Overall nice guy, not much of a big personality, buy charismanic nonetheless 2. Too nice for her own good, she usually tries to please everyone and ends up hurting because of that. She's the best number, though. Polished in her manners, a qtpie. 3. Fierce, but not that much of a friend. He's more if a solo type of guy, and doesn't talk that much. 4. Just like 2, he's a real nice person. When paired with two, it's like a match made in heaven. 5. He's a tryhard, but nice to hang out with, I guess. Not much to say about him. 6. A big cunt, but less of a cunt compared to 7 and 9. 7. The 2nd biggest cunt of all numbers, he's prideful and the symbol of vain. 8. He's as nice as 4, but not 2's friend. He only talks to 4 for some reason. 9. The biggest cunt of em all, but for some reason not as prideful as 7 0. He's, like in real life, a big meh. He's blunt and vague, and doesn't have much inspirations. He's got very good manners, though.
I always felt like odd numers (1 3 5 7 9) are masculine and even numbers (2 4 6 8 0) are feminine. I never reached the point of realizing it _in words_ it felt like that to me, but I came to a verbal conclusion some months ago
@@HappyBeezerStudios Is that why the car exploding in the video is a completely different car from the one in the rest of the music video? That being that it's from a movie?
*OH MY GOSH!* Yesterday in band class, we were warming up and playing chorales, and the band director said *"The band is playing yellow. Can you play more purple?"* AND I SMILED SOOO BIG!
Holly crap a year old comment. Idc I’m still gonna reply 😂 I assume when they said it was yellow that it was a too bright and didn’t hold a solid tone like a darker color would mean a deep whole tone.
If music could be composed using colour swatches, I would sign up for that. I’m a visual artist and I find sheet music to be a bit intimidating, but colour palettes? I’m all about that shit.
When I was a kid, I thought everyone experienced music this way. When I was like 16, I was in a band, and at practice during a songwriting session, I started talking about "yellow" part of the song, and everyone looked at me like "wut." I struggled to explain what I meant. Didn't find out about synesthesia until a few years later, and everything clicked.
I'm bilingual (Spanish is my motherlanguaje), and synesthesic, so, for me the numbers, the sound of the letters, the days of the week and the chords sounds different in both languages, for example: Tuestday is purple, meanwhile 'Martes' (tuesday in spanish) is green
For me Tuesday is green and martes is orange. In general, English is green, blue and purple, and Spanish is red, orange and yellow. And French is red, purple, and yellow
People often focus on colour when talking about synesthesia, but for me, though there are overarching colours for some songs, my visual representations of sounds are more about texture than anything else.
I also sometimes associate sound with volumes. Like a cluster of materia. Deeper sounds are bigger and pitchy sounds more like dots. Much of how like radiowaves or heart beats would appear. But more 2D.
As someone with Synesthesia this is the best explanation I’ve heard so far. Everyone I try to explain it to just look at me like I’m crazy. I have a lot of the forms except the taste and word one. I used to think everyone felt/saw color when they listened to music or when thinking of numbers and letters or days of the weeks and months. I also didn’t used to know that not everyone felt/saw a geographical map of all the numbers and that they have personalities until like 2 years ago. Now every time I have to explain it I will just show this video.
That assumption that everyone else is a synesthete is super common! In fact, most people with color-grapheme synesthesia (the most common type) who find out before adulthood are diagnosed in pre-k or kindergarten because they complain about the colorful calendars or alphabets on the classroom walls being "wrong" & don't understand why the teacher would put something incorrect up *at school* of all places. I totally agree that this is one of the best explanations of the sensation of synesthesia I've come across. I've always described it as seeing the colors 'behind' my eyes instead of in front like normal sight, but he's right that it's more that the referent (to use a psycholinguistics term) is colored rather than the actual real-world object """looking""" that way
3:45 my mom has this, and because of it people in our house have to be careful about playing too many sounds at the same time. you can't have music playing, the tv going, and a conversation at the same time cause it'll overwhelm her too much with all the colors lol
I learned that my synesthesia on the circle of fifths makes a perfect rainbow. Edit: For anyone who is curious, here are the colors I see based on each note: C-chartreuse to lime green G-cyan to sky blue D-azure A-blue E-navy to indigo B-dark lavender F#/Gb-dark magenta to quinacridone magenta C#/Db-burgundy G#/Ab-blood red D#/Eb-orange A#/Bb-butterscotch orange F-goldenrod yellow
It is refreshing to hear from someone else with synaesthesia. I thought that letters and numbers, for all people, had this and could never understand why, as a kid, my friends looked at me as if I was crazy, when ai asked them what colours there arithmetic had.. and, yes, it is only when I THINK about the numbers/letters that they get colour. And keys also have colours…and feelings.
So now I understand why numbers, the letters of the alphabet, days of a week all line up to form some weird geometrical shapes in my mind. I have tried to draw them on paper before to find out if they have any meaning - they don't.
Sometimes I think I have some sort of limited sound-emotion synesthesia. Certain music and tones cause me to get highly emotional, but in ways that don't make sense. Like I'll spontaneously start crying at some random music in an ad, or sometimes even just a sustained chord on strings. But it's not like "sad" chords or music. It's just a normal sound, or sometimes even "happy" music -- but I get this weird uncontrollable tear-jerking reaction.
To be fair, the latin alphabet "agrees" The B in Bouba looks a lot like the Bouba and the K is similarly sharp like the Kiki shape. That's hardly a coincidence.
TheAwesomeGingerGuy agreed - I really don't hate many things, but those ads have only caused a seething hatred in me that steadily grows for anything and anyone related to that piece of shit :o
An example I love to show how we're all a little synesthetic is to ask "If a lemon could move, would it be fast or slow?" Almost everyone says fast, because lemons are sour and sour is sharp and sharp means pointed and pointed is fast.
I have no idea if anyone else has this but for me when i play guitar it's like the diffrent notes are trying to fight for popularity and i memorize riffs by remembering what notes are more popular than others
not sure if this is the same as what you're saying but I find myself gravitating towards certain keys, not just because I am comfortable and know them well but yeah it almost feels like this key has been fighting for the limelight for so long, when going to learn a few of my favourtie songs I found them to be either in the key or within a few half steps
Simon The Human there is a chance you can experience synesthesia through psychedelics, I have had one with LSD which was very mild and short lived, but I vividly remember looking at the laptop from which we were listening to some music and then started experiencing some strange coloring in my retina, I don't remember the details exactly, but I definitely felt* as if it was a sense that was coming from the music, it was like little spontaneous colored flames coming out of the speakers and it strongly felt as if it was tied to what my ears were picking up. *It just felt connected somehow, just like tasting something, it was completely new to me. Anyway, it's hard to put it in to words, it may be possible that it wasn't synesthesia but I read that you can get a feeling on psychedelics so I took it as a yes.
I have gustatory-auditory synesthesia, meaning sound-to-taste. I often listen to and make music that, too me tastes good as a result. I also like to listen to specifically similar tasting music when cooking. None of this is important or anything, but it's not often that people talk about synesthesia in a public context and so I figured this was as good a place as any to post this.
@@husnainali-gn8bo Well first of all, it's the other way around. I don't hear the things I taste, but taste the things I hear. But as far as spicy goes, there are many sounds that taste "spicy", though often they have other flavors woven in as well. For instance, the sound of paper rustling is a bit spicy, but mostly sweet, kinda reminds me of aztec hot chocolate
@@SamanthaAdalia Generally, music with heavier bass frequencies, darker melodic structures, and more experimental sound design, like riddim and hybrid trap, offer flavors that I enjoy more due to their more salty and savory characteristics. I also enjoy, and make, modal, more melodic music, usually in modes or scales like dorian, aeolian, mixolydian, mixolydian flat 6, or the melodic minor scale. Specifically pentatonic melodies, as well as melodies with quartal and quintal structure, like the scores of studio ghibli films, tend to taste almost like warm tea or coffee. Also saxophones are amazing, they taste like melted guda in the alto range, sharper cheddar in the bass range, and almost like a mix of colby jack and some sort of bread-like taste in the soprano range. Hope all that helps!
I never knew this was a thing, I thought I was just slightly odd... I also give subjects in school colours, so e.g physics is dark blue, RS is purple, Drama is maroon
Biology is green, history is yellow, math and chemistry and spanish are red, English is blue, drama and photography are purple, guitar and psychology are orange, piano is lilac
I don't know if I have synesthesia. When I listen to music and close my eyes, instruments with a crunchy, staccato timbre are lighter colors and muddier, bassier sounding instruments tend to be darker. Guitars are usually yellow to deep red, bass guitars are usually black or silvery, synths are green, blue, and purple, and classical instruments span a range of neutral colors like white, gray, tan, brown, black, and sometimes red.
I don't think that I have any kind of synesthesia, but when I hear music, my mind immediately thinks of movements, and drawings or animated scenes based on the song. Like, every time. Sometimes, the movements will change. But other times, I remember the sequence and accosiate the song with those songs. I think I'm weird. For example, this song I like, Flamingo by Kero Kero Bonito, I feel it's jumpy, energetic, but also chill. My mind will lean towards the feeling, and I'll just construct a whole routine. Another example, a generic waltz probably, would make me want to do a ballet routine. irdk
1 is just plain boring. 2 is more like a super star 3 is is an evil one 4 is a bit of a jerk, but a friendly one. 5 is the neutral one, trying to keep peace. And so on. I could sit down and write down personalities for each number up to about 48. 22 and 37 are the green allies, trying to improve the world they lock in. 7, 26 and 43 are the „Mafia“, up to no good. 13 and 27 are lovers, 13 Male, 27 Female.
2 is my favorite, all evens and odds are at a kind of race war, 2 is pink/orange being head of evens, 3 being head of odds and blue, 1 is neutral and green, 0 doesn't exist (black). 5 (orange), 7(red), and 9(light green) are arrogant pricks, 4 and 8 are good friends of 2, 6 is a traitor (I think because it's a multiple of 3) 11 is a freak, and 13 is a complete psychopath. This pattern repeats via multiplication. I've had these thoughts since I could first count, and I thought I was insane. I used to make like mini kingdoms in my head ruled by numbers and were constantly in a battle over which had the greatest grip on the nature of the world and math.
1 is the team leader, but isn't very imposing, and no-one believes what he says. 2 is easygoing and extroverted, but quite simpleminded. 3 is loud and kinda annoying. Also really stupid. 4 and 6 are very similar; relaxed, kind and intelligent. They are close friends, although 4 is male and 6 is female. 5 doesn't have emotions, but is strong and reliable nonetheless. 7 smirks at numbers lower than itself, but is secretly scared of 8. 8 gives a very powerful impression because of it being so tall and heavily built, but doesn't talk much. 9 is the oldest, slightly snobbish, and never talks to anyone because he knows he's the biggest and best. Numbers with more than 1 digit always have the same personality as their first digit (except 11-19; those are all super competitive as well).
All these associations are just nuances of the way the brain works - by making connections. As a child, your imagination is overactive, so you often randomly associate unrelated things together - numbers with personalities, or letters and notes with colours. Some of these connections become permanent after a time, if they are brought to mind very frequently. They remain even in adulthood, when you no longer have the imagination to create these random links. Everyone probably experiences this phenomenon to some extent, but in some people it's significant enough to be classified as a mental health condition. tl;dr it's random connections that you make in your childhood which become permanent.
A = brown Bb = green B = teal C = yellow C# = purple D = pink Eb = red E = black F = grey F# = daytona blue G = white Ab =tan I don’t necessarily SEE colors when a note/chord is played, but i FEEL colors. My favorite color is daytona blue and my favorite key to play is F# so naturally, F# is daytona blue. Yellow is my least favorite color and C is my least favorite note, so C is yellow.
Holy shit, I’ve thought I’ve been insane all my life. I’m not saying I have sysnaistesia, but the months all have a definite color and spacial shape. I’m always looking down at months from a birds eye view perspective. They form into a really long zero kind of shape. January is on the bottom right, and summer is on top. Spring and fall are parallel, being on the right and left respectively, and most of winter is on the bottom.
This is what I like about RUclips, the opportunity to learn neat stuff with absolutely no direct practical relevance for someone like me. But that’s only if the producer of such content has mastered the art and skill of making RUclips videos. This is good stuff, congrats!
David Beamer You can read my comment to this video anove/below. In my version of this phenomenon they are certainly coloured differently. The accidentals are to blame I believe - It's mosly about how the notes are writted on the page and organised on the keyboard to me.
For me, they aren't perceived differently. While I perceive the letters of the alphabet and the musical alphabet mostly the same, whether or not a note is enharmonic doesn't change the color of it. I know that F# is an indigo purple, while the regular alphabet letter G is orange but making it Gb doesn't change how the sound sounds (A, B, C, D, E, and G are the same for both, musical F is totally different than regular alphabet F). Gb on paper is still orange because it is a G, but the sound remains the same.
Sometimes notes can be perceived differently in context. For example, in really dissonant chords, no matter the root note of the chord itself, it will always be perceived as some shade of gray or of a really muddy dark reddish brown color. If the chord is more consonant, notes tend to sound more...metallic? Can't really think of how to describe it.
I watched this yesterday, and found it fascinating! In my entire life (I'm 67) I have only encountered one other person with synesthesia, and hers is a very different type from mine. You, however, had me me shouting "Yes!" all the way through! Thank you for a very interesting watch!
Bouba, Bouba, mon petit ourson, Tu fais la joie et l'admiration de ta famille ! Bouba, Bouba, mon petit garçon, Tu cours et tu vas à travers les champs et les bois ! uh sorry, childhood cartoons.
To your question regarding "do multilingual synesthetes have different perception according to different language" I speak Japanese and Portuguese as my main language since young age, and now I mainly speak in English. My perception related to Synesthesia experience is very cohesive across all languages. The other day I said to my partner that "I don't like Mozart music because it's too pink for me. I feel link I'm biting into chunk of sugar" (and of cause, he didn't understand what I meant lol) I clearly see colours in music, I can "taste" colour and see personality in numbers. But I don't have any synesthesia related perception with alphabets. Instead, I see Chinese characters as puzzle. No one so far agreed or understood me when I explained how I see Chinese characters as puzzle. So, I think that might be the synesthesia related perception difference in different language for me.
It’s crazy how your content from 4 years ago is still fucking awesome. You’ve definitely grown and improved a lot, but damn it’s so fun to watch the content you put out before I was a subscriber
I'm Canadian, and I have this weird sort of thing when thinking of the provinces. When I imagine the maps of each province/territory in my head, each one has a specific colour. NS: Brown PEI: Orange NB: Green NFL & L: Brown Quebec: Green Ontario: Blue Manitoba: Purple Saskatchewan: Yellow/orange Alberta: Red BC: Blue Yukon: Red NWT: Dark grey-ish purple Nunavut: Yellow It might be because I saw a map with colours like this, but the map didn't look like each region had the right colour to me...
As a geography student, I tend to have this thing with all countries and it's very annoying to see a country as "the wrong color" on a map, but it's not synesthesia as much as a logical association due to history and knowledge. Former and current communist countries are often red, for example. When I see a blue Russia on a map it just feels very wrong.
I straight up thought that synesthesia was like another word for synthesizer, and that’s why all those youtube piano tutorials are called them, because they use a synth piano.
Joshua Jones Synthesia is the name of a commonly used midi player, which is why it’s used in youtube piano tutorials. Synesthesia, however, is the topic of this video. I don’t know if the names are connected, but it’s more likely that that synthesia is connected to the word synthesizer. Interesting nonetheless :)
I recently read a book called A Mango Shaped Space. Its a fiction story about a young girl who has synesthesia, though through the sound(activates) sight/color. Its a decent story, but I was wondering if you had read it, and what your thoughts on the explanations behind the condition.
Ryan T I've read it! I think it explains synesthesia really well and I found that what I experience is similar to the experiences the book mentions. It's an awesome resource for someone who is interested in learning about synesthesia
Nice presentation. Good to see a video from you that doesn't give a shitpost vibe :v I don't have synesthesia, but I do feel more comfortable when in my DAW the tracks are colored by instrument: Bass is red Lead is blue or green Reverb makes for a light blue track Drone sounds are brown etc and I wonder if the possibility of coloring tracks in a DAW made those corelations apparent or if I just came up with a system that now feels good because I've been using it. Oh, also - put synesthesia in the video tags if you haven't, the way you titled the video might make it less likely to pop up in people's searches.
I also don't have synesthesia but I have a very strong need for color coding. Maybe that has something to do with our brains necessity to organize stuff and make it easier for us. It is kind of an addiction, though.
A little praise for you, Adam: I forwarded your video to a Professor, who has been doing scientific research about this topic for years. He thinks, it is pretty accurate and particularly likes the visual effects you used. A good insight for non-synesthisians into this extraordinary sense of perception.
Those sounds at 5:53 made life 1/4 look like symmetrical black squiggly lines dude, also love your voice. It’s quite manly giving it a grey exterior but also having a intellectual base of explaining in it giving it a natural green hue. I could listen to you talk for hours 👁👅👁
in the norwegian language we tend to describe pitch as bright and dark. a deep voice is described s dark and a high pitched voice is a bright voice. very intresting to see this manifest with visuals through paople who do not haver these same assosiations with brightness and sound.
I've never heard about synesthesia before, but i do associeate almost all sorts of things with colors, for example, i can say a day was dark blue, or yellow depending on how i've felt it was. I do associate color to people in general too and the mood they're in the moment i'm seeing them. I always catch myself thinking ''This guy looks purple'' depending on what sort of thing I associate to him. Days of the week, months of the year and even hours have their own color to me. But I don't actually associate musical notes with colors when they're on the staff, I just do it with chords, like, Am is sort of a dark green for me, C Is dark blue and Em is always red.
A yellow day sounds pretty good to me, it's the dark blue ones that get me lol. There's no strict structure to the associations I make though, and it usually only happens involuntarily to a minor degree mostly in very common ways.
It's so cool to hear about someone else who experiences synesthesia. I have the following "sensory crossovers": timbre -> shape/color/transparency grapheme -> personality taste -> color month -> spatial position rhythm/melody/chord progression -> motion Linking back to your video about musical tastes being formed at age 14, there's a bit of an exception for me - I didn't discover the music that gives me the strongest synesthetic effects until my 20s. I'm strongly drawn to EDM for its synesthetic imagery, and Ragtime for its sense of motion (and I confess it makes me sad that other genres often feel "flat" by comparison - just not evoking anywhere near the same intensity of imagery). Late 1990s pop still has emotional resonance in spite of "flat" imagery due to the "age 14 effect" :P For what it's worth, from my own experience (your mileage will vary), here are the songs that give me the most interesting synesthetic effects: Rockell - When I'm Gone Paul Oakenfold (ft. Carla Werner) - Southern Sun Enya - White is in the Winter Night The Pointer Sisters - Jump for my Love Duran Duran - Hungry Like the Wolf Scott Joplin - The Maple Leaf Rag Irene Cara - What a Feeling
as a farsi speaker i can kinda confirm that thing with "thin and thick pitch", i kinda do have that synethetic feeling of lower notes being thick and higher ones being thin in an odd way (not the fisheye thing you showed though)
I am actually so happy to have found this video. I have synesthesia, including grapheme color for letters and numbers, number/letter OLP (personality associations), shape-color, days/months have colors, sound-spatial, aaaaaand many others. First of this video is probably the most well explained video on synesthesia I have found so far, and it's the most accurate too. Often I find other videos are too exaggerated or are not really it. But this video also finally gave an explanation to another type of synesthesia I could never find the name of. That's when you talk about the music notes actually having colors, but not the sounds of them. I am a piano player, and each note on the keyboard has a color (although for me the sound itself of the note doesn't have any). Since I also have OLP, I associate personalities with musical notes, and it's really funny because when playing piano, the notes will have little stories and conflicts with each other. I'm so grateful for this video as it finally put into words something I was experiencing and couldn't describe. Again, amazing video and thanks for sharing our view of the world to others!
When I was young, I used to explain something's format with sounds associated with gestures. Mom always found it very funny and I wouldn't understand why. Today I try not to make those associations when talking to people so they won't think I'm strange. Also, I'm not very musical, because I can see and taste it to a point it gets kinda overwhelming to pay attention to other things.
You're right about A, B and C, but the way I see it, D is pinkish, E is green and F is purple, and G is a much lighter orange- But because I think of keys in terms of the relative minor being the default mode, the key of A major is not red, but actually purple because it's really F# minor
Anger, he smiles, towering in shiny metallic purple armour. Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him. Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground. Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted, they quietly understand once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready, but wonder why the fight is on. My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war, and ribbons of euphoria. Orange is young, full of daring, but very unsteady for the first go round. My yellow in this case is not so mellow, in fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me. And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from giving my life to a rainbow like you!
Amazing Jimi... There's a woman painter with synesthesia called Melissa McCracken who paints what she hears and here is her painting for Jimi's Little wing : www.visualnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/515.jpg
As someone with the Chromesthesia and Auditory-tactile forms of synesthesia I was really happy to find this video, I've been a fan for a while and must have overlooked it at the time of posting. A year late, but very impressed.
Adam made me realise that I have time-space synesthesia. My perception of time on all levels (hours, days of the week, years, centuries) have distinct, specific shapes.
i have had color/pitch associations since i was young - i also have perfect pitch! and i also sometimes "feel" the colors in my mind's eye and oh man i almost started crying when you described chromasthesia. i remember being in choir and knowing somebody's G was flat because it was more yellow (F is yellow) than green. i remember playing bass scales and feeling the colors go deeper the lower that i went. when i hum "G", i just feel green. the way my vocal chords feel is just... green. E is pink and E♭is redviolet.... i love this video so much!!
OMG ok so i have grapheme color synesthesia too and i play the piano. At first, the notes of the page and on the key board were colorless, but now, as i begin to learn the notes more fluently by memory, colors are developing. For instance, all of the c notes on the piano are yellow, since c is yellow to me. I had never heard about another person that this happened to, and i am so glad I'm not alone!
I'm in a weird middle where it's not always notes that have colour (though A is always blood red to me), but chords absolutely do. F major is this warm, lush green, D minor is a velvety indigo, Eb major is royal blue, etc. Fun stuff.
This garden universe vibrates complete Some, we get a sound so sweet Vibrations reach on up to become light And then through gamma, out of sight Between the eyes and ears there lie The sounds of color and the light of a sigh And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe But it's all around if we could but perceive To know ultra-violet, infra-red, and x-rays Beauty to find in so many ways Two notes of the chord, that's our full scope But to reach the chord is our life's hope And to name the chord is important to some So they give it a word, and the word is
when i started learning to play the piano, every time i learned the name of a note, it gave the note its color, later intervals gain colors too, minor 3rd is Dark blue Major 3rd is Orange MInor 2nd is red
I have the grapheme colour synesthesia thing and I got so frustrated every time you mentioned the colours you see in letters. NO, F IS NOT GREEN AT ALL IT IS SO ORANGE!
RUclips: what do you want today? ME: a double portion of Vsauce please. RUclips: All right, here's what I have :D ME: wtf, he's normally talking about music xD 9 minutes and 41 seconds later RUclips: Sooooo? ME: Well, holy shit, it was fucking good, thanks youtube :D excellent video Adam :D I really enjoyed it :)
I've not been diagnosed whit it but months, numbers and every day in the week has colors to me. I thought it was normal or something to do whit how I learned these things when I was a kid
i have chromasthesia and lsd triggers different kind of synaesthesia in me, i literally could see color and shape of the touch feeling. that was crazy. i saw how the cold feeling from blowing wind was forming a purplish blue rod and flying away behind my back.
Ok, so... Adam, I recently discovered your channel and couldn’t be more ecstatic. This video in particular plucked my strings. I am a bassist as well, and I am a synesthete as well. Chromesthesia in my case. You were able to explain my condition better that anyone else, better that whatever I could muster myself. Thank you very much for what you are doing with your channel. I feel that with your videos, not only am I becoming a better musician, but also a better human. I’d love to see you playing live. I’ll have to go to NY soon, as the chances that you play where I live are slim. Thanks again!
Thanks for this ive been trying to explain why i dont like a song to my husband by saying it has a grating orangey red in it too much and he just stares blankly at me.
As a musician and clarinet player different tuning and notes have different tastes. If the note or ensemble is sharp I taste something along the lines of mayonnaise always or in tune is buttered popcorn. I never really realized it had a name until stumbling upon videos like that. Not trying to self diagnose just an observation
I think I may have synesthesia. Cause before this vid I’ve thought at a as red b as blue c as yellow d as purple. Maybe not as strong as yours because I only experience colors associated with songs that have a certain feeling to it. For instance Blackest Eyes by Porcupine Tree is a dark brown. And Trains by them as well is a bright blue. Trains by Steps ahead is a golden yellow. And so on.
I associate smells with colors, i smell spray paint and it’s blue, cinnamon is yellow, I don’t see it visually but the color just pops in my brain whenever I smell something
I have synesthesia aswell, but the colours are completely different than yours. It hurts watching you putting the ""wrong"" colours haha. For example, A is definitely Blue for me, so seeing Red A is very strange. Anyway, great video!
Listen here buds, A is red. B is blue. C is gritty and teal. D is a dark color between red-brown and dark purple. E is obviously yellow. F is green. G is purple. H is light orange, and so on. This is the only truth! ;)
Thank you so much for this video! It gave me tools to explain my synesthesia to my friends, and honestly it made me feel less lonely in a strange way. It also helped me understand it from an english-speaking perspective, since my experience of it was rooted in my first language, southamerican spanish. On another note, your videos are amazing! They help me a lot to reconceptualize music, again, from another perspective. Thank you so much!
A Kiki-Bouba problem for me are the neck and bridge pickup. The word "neck" sounds much more like the sound you get from a bridge pickup, and vice versa. This makes me confuse the two all the time.

Vина FBI OPEN UP
PROTIP: Make sure the notes and the colours are in the SAME KEY
Oh my god this is so good 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You already made my day! And its 1:48 am xD
LMAOOOOO
No not like this thought
Ex: The A4 is different than A5 I couldnt Explain but the A5 its more lightcolor
OH MY GOD AS A CHILD I ALWAYS CAME UP WITH PERSONALITIES FOR NUMBERS AND I NEVER KNEW THAT WAS A THING
OMG SAME. what did you see. i saw:
1: very uptight old and wise
2: wife of 1 very fashionable and wears makeup. posh.
3 the toddler of 1 and 2 very annoying
4 the older brother of 3 less annoying. is into ben ten is about 8
5: the older sister. hates her brothers and is very stereotypically millennial
6 the friend of 5. very shy and doesn’t talk much. she has long hair
7 the older older sister of the family. very very sophisticated and knows what she’s doing
8: a man who’s a bit nervous and shy and stumbles on his words (has a crush of nine
9 very uptight women. won’t take anyone’s shit
and then it repeats
I'll have several categories.
-NUMBERS and PERSONALITIES/QUALITIES-
1: A asshole with a big ego.
2: That person who just gives and gives and gives and is super nice. Basically Keanu.
3: A midget asswipe. Has a nasally voice and is pretty uptight. Egotistical.
4: A nice person, not too wise but nice. Doesn't take initiative. 4 is friend with 5.
5: A young person, who is intelligent and is somewhat gullible at the same time. They have large ambitions. Easily led astray.
6: A somewhat popular but yet nice person who wants to help. A deep and intellectual person.
7: A giant cunt billionaire that lives in a penthouse
8: A very tall and somewhat overweight person who has a low voice and is a little annoying because of their clumsiness and stupidity, but has their heart in the right place.
9: Circus magician.
10: Basically Albert Einstein, very smart.
11: An old, and wise wizard. A hermit who lives atop a tower in a field.
12: Kinda like 8, but more big and stupid than anything else. Will ever so often save the day.
13: A cunty superhero who gets all the fame.
14: A superhero who gets less fame than 13 but isn't a cunt.
anything beyond that falls into these statements
Odd: Greedy dirtbag
Even: Nice
-unless-
Is divisible by ten. If divisible by 10, then is a clone made my 10. And is basically the crossing of 10 with whatever number. It is a giant, moves slow and is somewhat wiser that the plain number you would get when dividing by 10.
ie.
70: A giant somewhat Lovecraftian iteration of 7, who is wise and godlike, and beyond understanding.
(7 is the worst and also best of the numbers if you haven't caught on.)
-INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NUMBERS-
These actions are represented by multiplication. Also as a note, there is something important to say before going on. For example, take 2x5: 2 is being nice to 5 and makes 5 feel better about self and makes 5 be nicer to others as a result. 10 is the output of this and is the now the nicer 5. It is important to note that this 10 is different from the scientist 10. This 10 is completely independent and represents the result of the interaction between 2 and 5. Therefor, for any other number that can be created by multiplying two numbers 1-14 together doesn't inherently represent the interaction of those two numbers, but is that number and falls into the 1st category, unless it is in a problem, ie. 2x5=10. Only when written in a problem that way, will the number be the result of the interaction between those two numbers. Also, the first number in the multiplication problem will be the determining number that decides what action is happening (excepting special cases.) 4*3 =/= 3*4
3*4 is the 3 * Anything (anything being 4 in this case), while 4*3 is the 4 * Anything. As a result of this, I prefer the 3 to come after anything else (i prefer 7*3 to 3*7.)
1 * Anything: Nobody gives a fuck about 1 because 1 is a cunt, so nothing happens.
2 * Anything: They say some encouraging things and are nice to the number.
2 * 7: 7's birthday cake.
2 * 8: 8 is trying to help make 7 a birthday cake, but fucks up.
3 * Anything: 3 is being combined with the other number (which is being made happen by 10). In 3x5=15, 15 is the abomination you get when you combine 3 and 5. It is important to note that with the output of 3 * Anything, that it will bare more resemblance and a more similar personality to the Anything than to the 3.
4 * Anything: 4 is kinda just reluctantly going on an adventure with the other number.
5 * Anything: 5 is using the other number as a tool to progress more towards their goal, but not harming anyone while doing so.
5 * 4: Since 4 is friends with 5, they decide to help 5 make a house. 20 is the friendship.
5 * 6: 5 likes 6 and helps them in their personal journey to find inner peace.
5 * 7: 7 invited 5 up to the top of their penthouse, and they are both in a bathtub. 7 is trying to lure 5 into becoming their apprentice.
7 * Anything: Doing what 5 does, but actually harming other numbers.
9 * Anything: Does a magic trick.
10 * Anything
-or- The whole cloning thing.
Anything * 10
11 * Anything: 11 does it's magic and creates a perfect clone of the anything, instead of a Lovecraftian monster.
-ADDITION-
Order doesn't matter here anymore, it just determines from which point of view everything is seen.
8 + 6: 8 holds a surprise birthday party for 6. It's badly put together and the other number think it was kinda shitty, but 6 realizes 8 tried and comforts 8 while 8 is crying because 8 is sad that they couldn't make 6 a nice cake or party. 6 says that doesn't matter, and that matters is the 8 tried.
8 + 7: 7 takes pity on 8 and decides to help them make a birthday cake for 6, but 8 is clumsy and fucks up something and 7 gets pissed off and leaves.
-SQUARING-
Basically its the number getting a power-up. 7*7=49, 49 is the power-up.
The guy who invented the "why was 6 afraid of seven" joke probably had that.
Well, I had it as well:
1. Overall nice guy, not much of a big personality, buy charismanic nonetheless
2. Too nice for her own good, she usually tries to please everyone and ends up hurting because of that. She's the best number, though. Polished in her manners, a qtpie.
3. Fierce, but not that much of a friend. He's more if a solo type of guy, and doesn't talk that much.
4. Just like 2, he's a real nice person. When paired with two, it's like a match made in heaven.
5. He's a tryhard, but nice to hang out with, I guess. Not much to say about him.
6. A big cunt, but less of a cunt compared to 7 and 9.
7. The 2nd biggest cunt of all numbers, he's prideful and the symbol of vain.
8. He's as nice as 4, but not 2's friend. He only talks to 4 for some reason.
9. The biggest cunt of em all, but for some reason not as prideful as 7
0. He's, like in real life, a big meh. He's blunt and vague, and doesn't have much inspirations. He's got very good manners, though.
I always felt like odd numers (1 3 5 7 9) are masculine and even numbers (2 4 6 8 0) are feminine. I never reached the point of realizing it _in words_ it felt like that to me, but I came to a verbal conclusion some months ago
Is nobody gonna talk about the fact that that car explosion at 4:00 is from the music video from All Star...
I was going to say! I just noticed that for the first time re-watching this today. It doesn't surprise me at all he would include a joke like that.
@@threenplustwo9105 I didn't want to admit it to myself....
Watch Mystery men, its a fun movie.
@@HappyBeezerStudios Is that why the car exploding in the video is a completely different car from the one in the rest of the music video? That being that it's from a movie?
Hey, MusicSauce, Adam Here
Is that "p" in your profile pic from the supreme logo, by any chance?
srsly tho y u like supreme its so overpriced and overrated
are you ok?
Adam really is just Michael, but for music.
Exactly what I was thinking! It works, though. He'll be in the millions of subscribers if he keeps it up.

*OH MY GOSH!* Yesterday in band class, we were warming up and playing chorales, and the band director said *"The band is playing yellow. Can you play more purple?"* AND I SMILED SOOO BIG!
Ace of Spades I don't know if he has it, but the class was confused on what he meant at first, but we got it on the first try.
Holly crap a year old comment. Idc I’m still gonna reply 😂
I assume when they said it was yellow that it was a too bright and didn’t hold a solid tone like a darker color would mean a deep whole tone.
Mega late but it might mean to play it darker/warmer.
If music could be composed using colour swatches, I would sign up for that. I’m a visual artist and I find sheet music to be a bit intimidating, but colour palettes? I’m all about that shit.
I'm starting to have vsausthesia. I associate Adam Neely with Vsauce
omg I think I have that one
Michael stevens made a video on Qualia
Are you a ''Synth'' Ai!
I lost it when you slowly said kiki and bouba
Same
I’ve always loved that in musical metaphorical language, when describing tone, bright is the opposite of warm.
No it's not bright and warm are compatible. Bright and dark are opposites. Just as warm and cold are when describing timbre and tone
When I was a kid, I thought everyone experienced music this way. When I was like 16, I was in a band, and at practice during a songwriting session, I started talking about "yellow" part of the song, and everyone looked at me like "wut." I struggled to explain what I meant. Didn't find out about synesthesia until a few years later, and everything clicked.
I'm bilingual (Spanish is my motherlanguaje), and synesthesic, so, for me the numbers, the sound of the letters, the days of the week and the chords sounds different in both languages, for example: Tuestday is purple, meanwhile 'Martes' (tuesday in spanish) is green
to me Tuesday is yellow, martes is red
To me they are black
Thank you for answering this. I’ve always wandered that.
To me tuesday's gone...
For me Tuesday is green and martes is orange. In general, English is green, blue and purple, and Spanish is red, orange and yellow. And French is red, purple, and yellow
People often focus on colour when talking about synesthesia, but for me, though there are overarching colours for some songs, my visual representations of sounds are more about texture than anything else.
Delphine Joyce Same here!! Some songs are more vibrant or thicker than others....😊
Yeah like the number 297 is light pink and lemon yellow with the textures of thick, chewy, sticky candy
I also sometimes associate sound with volumes. Like a cluster of materia. Deeper sounds are bigger and pitchy sounds more like dots. Much of how like radiowaves or heart beats would appear. But more 2D.
Absolutely. I also pursue more textural music and art mediums because I feel it so much more profoundly.
i'm color blind and i think you're all nuts

It's because he sounds like a Teletubby for that one mouth noise.
Kiki, do you love me
As someone with Synesthesia this is the best explanation I’ve heard so far. Everyone I try to explain it to just look at me like I’m crazy. I have a lot of the forms except the taste and word one. I used to think everyone felt/saw color when they listened to music or when thinking of numbers and letters or days of the weeks and months. I also didn’t used to know that not everyone felt/saw a geographical map of all the numbers and that they have personalities until like 2 years ago. Now every time I have to explain it I will just show this video.
That assumption that everyone else is a synesthete is super common! In fact, most people with color-grapheme synesthesia (the most common type) who find out before adulthood are diagnosed in pre-k or kindergarten because they complain about the colorful calendars or alphabets on the classroom walls being "wrong" & don't understand why the teacher would put something incorrect up *at school* of all places.
I totally agree that this is one of the best explanations of the sensation of synesthesia I've come across. I've always described it as seeing the colors 'behind' my eyes instead of in front like normal sight, but he's right that it's more that the referent (to use a psycholinguistics term) is colored rather than the actual real-world object """looking""" that way
I bet having a bass with colored frets would be hella satisfying for you
Julian Cavaleri and someone tuning that bass to drop D would make him go insane
If the frets weren't colored to my synesthesia, it would be hella not satisfying.
Yeah I was just thinking what if you had one colored to match your perception and then went to drop D. That could be confusing.
wingracer 16 super AMOLED frets are the solution that no one asked for.
what if they were interchangable in a way?
*Person:* "Hey Adam, what key is this tune in?" *Adam:* "Robin's Egg Blue."
He cant do that, he doesn't have absolute pitch
I agreed with all your colorings of the letters until you gave my boy E the color purple
E is light green. M is very bright azure blue. I don't give colors to most letters tho, just numbers
nah E is orange, kinda crunchy but also like a rude sunlight
My E is black.
e is like really bright lime
E is definitely orange to me 🍊
3:45 my mom has this, and because of it people in our house have to be careful about playing too many sounds at the same time. you can't have music playing, the tv going, and a conversation at the same time cause it'll overwhelm her too much with all the colors lol

I learned that my synesthesia on the circle of fifths makes a perfect rainbow.
Edit: For anyone who is curious, here are the colors I see based on each note:
C-chartreuse to lime green
G-cyan to sky blue
D-azure
A-blue
E-navy to indigo
B-dark lavender
F#/Gb-dark magenta to quinacridone magenta
C#/Db-burgundy

@@ameliashandcraftedmemes7888 I wonder if there's a connection there or if that's just a coincidence
@@mopishlynx2323 Likely a coincidence.
@@mopishlynx2323 But look up Scriabin. His synesthesia on the cycle of fifth look good, too.
It is refreshing to hear from someone else with synaesthesia. I thought that letters and numbers, for all people, had this and could never understand why, as a kid, my friends looked at me as if I was crazy, when ai asked them what colours there arithmetic had.. and, yes, it is only when I THINK about the numbers/letters that they get colour. And keys also have colours…and feelings.
So now I understand why numbers, the letters of the alphabet, days of a week all line up to form some weird geometrical shapes in my mind. I have tried to draw them on paper before to find out if they have any meaning - they don't.
Georg F same haha
Sometimes I think I have some sort of limited sound-emotion synesthesia. Certain music and tones cause me to get highly emotional, but in ways that don't make sense. Like I'll spontaneously start crying at some random music in an ad, or sometimes even just a sustained chord on strings. But it's not like "sad" chords or music. It's just a normal sound, or sometimes even "happy" music -- but I get this weird uncontrollable tear-jerking reaction.
Have you reported this to science? This sounds really interesting.
When he said bouba, I felt it.
Same 😭😂
To be fair, the latin alphabet "agrees" The B in Bouba looks a lot like the Bouba and the K is similarly sharp like the Kiki shape. That's hardly a coincidence.
if i see another Yousician advert i'll smash the fucking screen in
TheAwesomeGingerGuy agreed - I really don't hate many things, but those ads have only caused a seething hatred in me that steadily grows for anything and anyone related to that piece of shit :o
I always wanted to associate colors with letters and numbers, but the beginning seemed so slow and frustrating.
TheAwesomeGingerGuy you fool, it's seafoam green and nothing else
Aww, but how can anyone hate that tinkly glockenspiel melody? :3
Just kidding I use Yousician (for my sins) and I hate the adverts so much
Imagine if they taught people how to play that cutesy crap in the background, then ... I dare not think about it
An example I love to show how we're all a little synesthetic is to ask "If a lemon could move, would it be fast or slow?"
Almost everyone says fast, because lemons are sour and sour is sharp and sharp means pointed and pointed is fast.
I just imagine it rolling wobblily
I have no idea if anyone else has this but for me when i play guitar it's like the diffrent notes are trying to fight for popularity and i memorize riffs by remembering what notes are more popular than others
ninja koala omg okay so this is a type of synesthesia but i forgot what its called. I have it too!
Cool, I though I was crazy
yes!!
not sure if this is the same as what you're saying but I find myself gravitating towards certain keys, not just because I am comfortable and know them well but yeah it almost feels like this key has been fighting for the limelight for so long, when going to learn a few of my favourtie songs I found them to be either in the key or within a few half steps
That's almost how I taught myself how to braid my own hair: each strand of hair is battling for a chance to be the middle strand.
I personally find sensory phenomena like this fascinating to discuss, especially with accounts from people who experience them. Great video as always.
Simon The Human there is a chance you can experience synesthesia through psychedelics, I have had one with LSD which was very mild and short lived, but I vividly remember looking at the laptop from which we were listening to some music and then started experiencing some strange coloring in my retina, I don't remember the details exactly, but I definitely felt* as if it was a sense that was coming from the music, it was like little spontaneous colored flames coming out of the speakers and it strongly felt as if it was tied to what my ears were picking up.
*It just felt connected somehow, just like tasting something, it was completely new to me.
Anyway, it's hard to put it in to words, it may be possible that it wasn't synesthesia but I read that you can get a feeling on psychedelics so I took it as a yes.
I have gustatory-auditory synesthesia, meaning sound-to-taste. I often listen to and make music that, too me tastes good as a result. I also like to listen to specifically similar tasting music when cooking. None of this is important or anything, but it's not often that people talk about synesthesia in a public context and so I figured this was as good a place as any to post this.
Whoa, that's so cool! I wonder, could you describe the music that tastes good to you?
what kind of music do you hear? is it like a melody or a bunch of pitches? also, does spicy food sound spicy to you?
@@husnainali-gn8bo Well first of all, it's the other way around. I don't hear the things I taste, but taste the things I hear. But as far as spicy goes, there are many sounds that taste "spicy", though often they have other flavors woven in as well. For instance, the sound of paper rustling is a bit spicy, but mostly sweet, kinda reminds me of aztec hot chocolate
@@SamanthaAdalia Generally, music with heavier bass frequencies, darker melodic structures, and more experimental sound design, like riddim and hybrid trap, offer flavors that I enjoy more due to their more salty and savory characteristics. I also enjoy, and make, modal, more melodic music, usually in modes or scales like dorian, aeolian, mixolydian, mixolydian flat 6, or the melodic minor scale. Specifically pentatonic melodies, as well as melodies with quartal and quintal structure, like the scores of studio ghibli films, tend to taste almost like warm tea or coffee. Also saxophones are amazing, they taste like melted guda in the alto range, sharper cheddar in the bass range, and almost like a mix of colby jack and some sort of bread-like taste in the soprano range. Hope all that helps!
@@phrygid5978 that's cool
This video blew my mind. I had heard of synesthesia before, but never have I had anyone explain this so well. Thank you so much!
did you just explain why boobs are called boobs?

"Boob":
B
I never knew this was a thing, I thought I was just slightly odd... I also give subjects in school colours, so e.g physics is dark blue, RS is purple, Drama is maroon
Yeah, same
Physics is pink tho.
I do too, but i make up the colours and just get used to them. Physics is banana yellow btw.
Nah y’all got it way wrong... any science is green, math is red/black, English is white, history is blue :P
@@nickjones6843 close but
Science is green
Math is red/black (mostly red)
English is b l u e
History is beige
Biology is green, history is yellow, math and chemistry and spanish are red, English is blue, drama and photography are purple, guitar and psychology are orange, piano is lilac
I don't know if I have synesthesia. When I listen to music and close my eyes, instruments with a crunchy, staccato timbre are lighter colors and muddier, bassier sounding instruments tend to be darker. Guitars are usually yellow to deep red, bass guitars are usually black or silvery, synths are green, blue, and purple, and classical instruments span a range of neutral colors like white, gray, tan, brown, black, and sometimes red.
Jonathan Sefcik that is synethesia
thats alot like the synesthesia i experience
that is synesthesia :)
I don't think that I have any kind of synesthesia, but when I hear music, my mind immediately thinks of movements, and drawings or animated scenes based on the song. Like, every time. Sometimes, the movements will change. But other times, I remember the sequence and accosiate the song with those songs. I think I'm weird. For example, this song I like, Flamingo by Kero Kero Bonito, I feel it's jumpy, energetic, but also chill. My mind will lean towards the feeling, and I'll just construct a whole routine. Another example, a generic waltz probably, would make me want to do a ballet routine. irdk
Annalise Brown DUDE THE SAME THING HAPPENS TO ME!!! Its so weird, but I have no control over it!
1 is just plain boring.
2 is more like a super star
3 is is an evil one
4 is a bit of a jerk, but a friendly one.
5 is the neutral one, trying to keep peace.
And so on. I could sit down and write down personalities for each number up to about 48.
22 and 37 are the green allies, trying to improve the world they lock in.
7, 26 and 43 are the „Mafia“, up to no good.
13 and 27 are lovers, 13 Male, 27 Female.
I fucking knew 13 and 27 were together,,,,
2 is my favorite, all evens and odds are at a kind of race war, 2 is pink/orange being head of evens, 3 being head of odds and blue, 1 is neutral and green, 0 doesn't exist (black). 5 (orange), 7(red), and 9(light green) are arrogant pricks, 4 and 8 are good friends of 2, 6 is a traitor (I think because it's a multiple of 3) 11 is a freak, and 13 is a complete psychopath. This pattern repeats via multiplication. I've had these thoughts since I could first count, and I thought I was insane. I used to make like mini kingdoms in my head ruled by numbers and were constantly in a battle over which had the greatest grip on the nature of the world and math.
Michi Lo oh my God that is so different from mine. Also my numbers have colours, and genders as well. To me 5 is energetic and kinda crazy
1 is the team leader, but isn't very imposing, and no-one believes what he says.
2 is easygoing and extroverted, but quite simpleminded.
3 is loud and kinda annoying. Also really stupid.
4 and 6 are very similar; relaxed, kind and intelligent. They are close friends, although 4 is male and 6 is female.
5 doesn't have emotions, but is strong and reliable nonetheless.
7 smirks at numbers lower than itself, but is secretly scared of 8.
8 gives a very powerful impression because of it being so tall and heavily built, but doesn't talk much.
9 is the oldest, slightly snobbish, and never talks to anyone because he knows he's the biggest and best.
Numbers with more than 1 digit always have the same personality as their first digit (except 11-19; those are all super competitive as well).
All these associations are just nuances of the way the brain works - by making connections. As a child, your imagination is overactive, so you often randomly associate unrelated things together - numbers with personalities, or letters and notes with colours.
Some of these connections become permanent after a time, if they are brought to mind very frequently. They remain even in adulthood, when you no longer have the imagination to create these random links.
Everyone probably experiences this phenomenon to some extent, but in some people it's significant enough to be classified as a mental health condition.
tl;dr it's random connections that you make in your childhood which become permanent.
A = brown
Bb = green
B = teal
C = yellow
C# = purple
D = pink
Eb = red
E = black
F = grey
F# = daytona blue
G = white
Ab =tan
I don’t necessarily SEE colors when a note/chord is played, but i FEEL colors. My favorite color is daytona blue and my favorite key to play is F# so naturally, F# is daytona blue. Yellow is my least favorite color and C is my least favorite note, so C is yellow.
Holy shit, I’ve thought I’ve been insane all my life. I’m not saying I have sysnaistesia, but the months all have a definite color and spacial shape. I’m always looking down at months from a birds eye view perspective. They form into a really long zero kind of shape. January is on the bottom right, and summer is on top. Spring and fall are parallel, being on the right and left respectively, and most of winter is on the bottom.
Most of winter? Wheres the rest of it? And even more important... Is it coming?
You have spacial sequence synesthesia.
Seeing other people have it too make some more comfortable.I see it as being a superpower :)
cynosurlesthesia seeing other people have it make me feel uncomfortable. i want superpowers too >:(
This is what I like about RUclips, the opportunity to learn neat stuff with absolutely no direct practical relevance for someone like me. But that’s only if the producer of such content has mastered the art and skill of making RUclips videos. This is good stuff, congrats!
What about enharmonics? Is F# a different color than G-flat? Would the context matter? (I.e. in a piece with other notes, vs. all by its lonesome?)
I actually would really like to see an answer to this. Nice question!
I would assume so, since he said he associates letters, not the notes themselves, with colours.

You can read my comment to this video anove/below.
In my version of this phenomenon they are certainly coloured differently.
The accidentals are to blame I believe - It's mosly about how the notes are writted on the page and organised on the keyboard to me.
For me, they aren't perceived differently. While I perceive the letters of the alphabet and the musical alphabet mostly the same, whether or not a note is enharmonic doesn't change the color of it. I know that F# is an indigo purple, while the regular alphabet letter G is orange but making it Gb doesn't change how the sound sounds (A, B, C, D, E, and G are the same for both, musical F is totally different than regular alphabet F). Gb on paper is still orange because it is a G, but the sound remains the same.
Sometimes notes can be perceived differently in context. For example, in really dissonant chords, no matter the root note of the chord itself, it will always be perceived as some shade of gray or of a really muddy dark reddish brown color. If the chord is more consonant, notes tend to sound more...metallic? Can't really think of how to describe it.
KEE-KEE
BOO-BAHHH
@Spanish Moustache Tell me you'll never ever -play the viola-
Oops, wrong music channel. (TwoSetViolin inside joke.)
I watched this yesterday, and found it fascinating! In my entire life (I'm 67) I have only encountered one other person with synesthesia, and hers is a very different type from mine. You, however, had me me shouting "Yes!" all the way through! Thank you for a very interesting watch!
Anyone else who read "Synthesia"?
:')
Yeah lmaoo
Yeah.
YUp
I thought he was gonna play a song using multiple keyboard parts like real life synthesia lol
Sen-thye-sia
I laughed so hard at 7:22
I don't even know why xDD
same
I did too, I think he was aware
Not to be rude or anything, but when he said bouba he kinda sounded Nigerian.
Bouba, Bouba, mon petit ourson,
Tu fais la joie et l'admiration de ta famille !
Bouba, Bouba, mon petit garçon,
Tu cours et tu vas à travers les champs et les bois !
uh sorry, childhood cartoons.

yep, definitely.
To your question regarding
"do multilingual synesthetes have different perception according to different language"
I speak Japanese and Portuguese as my main language since young age, and now I mainly speak in English.
My perception related to Synesthesia experience is very cohesive across all languages.
The other day I said to my partner that
"I don't like Mozart music because it's too pink for me. I feel link I'm biting into chunk of sugar" (and of cause, he didn't understand what I meant lol)
I clearly see colours in music, I can "taste" colour and see personality in numbers. But I don't have any synesthesia related perception with alphabets.
Instead, I see Chinese characters as puzzle. No one so far agreed or understood me when I explained how I see Chinese characters as puzzle. So, I think that might be the synesthesia related perception difference in different language for me.
"I dont know if I would call synesthesia a 'disability', but I can see what you're saying"
That explains the program's name
Thats synthesia not synesthesia
It’s crazy how your content from 4 years ago is still fucking awesome. You’ve definitely grown and improved a lot, but damn it’s so fun to watch the content you put out before I was a subscriber
This feels like a really interesting short film. Great job on this, man
I'm Canadian, and I have this weird sort of thing when thinking of the provinces.
When I imagine the maps of each province/territory in my head, each one has a specific colour.
NS: Brown
PEI: Orange
NB: Green
NFL & L: Brown
Quebec: Green
Ontario: Blue
Manitoba: Purple
Saskatchewan: Yellow/orange
Alberta: Red
BC: Blue
Yukon: Red
NWT: Dark grey-ish purple
Nunavut: Yellow
It might be because I saw a map with colours like this, but the map didn't look like each region had the right colour to me...
As a geography student, I tend to have this thing with all countries and it's very annoying to see a country as "the wrong color" on a map, but it's not synesthesia as much as a logical association due to history and knowledge. Former and current communist countries are often red, for example. When I see a blue Russia on a map it just feels very wrong.
Interesting.
I'm guessing you're from the eastern side of Canada?
Ryan Sullivan that is a form of synesthesia.
Same! It probably has to do with maps we see as kids, I remember a lot of maps looking like the colours you described
I straight up thought that synesthesia was like another word for synthesizer, and that’s why all those youtube piano tutorials are called them, because they use a synth piano.
Joshua Jones Synthesia is the name of a commonly used midi player, which is why it’s used in youtube piano tutorials. Synesthesia, however, is the topic of this video.
I don’t know if the names are connected, but it’s more likely that that synthesia is connected to the word synthesizer. Interesting nonetheless :)
I recently read a book called A Mango Shaped Space. Its a fiction story about a young girl who has synesthesia, though through the sound(activates) sight/color. Its a decent story, but I was wondering if you had read it, and what your thoughts on the explanations behind the condition.
Ryan T I've read it! I think it explains synesthesia really well and I found that what I experience is similar to the experiences the book mentions. It's an awesome resource for someone who is interested in learning about synesthesia
Ryan T I read that it’s one of my favorite books
YESYESYESYESYESYES I LOVE THAT BOOK
YESSSS! I love that book!
Nice presentation. Good to see a video from you that doesn't give a shitpost vibe :v
I don't have synesthesia, but I do feel more comfortable when in my DAW the tracks are colored by instrument:
Bass is red
Lead is blue or green
Reverb makes for a light blue track
Drone sounds are brown
etc
and I wonder if the possibility of coloring tracks in a DAW made those corelations apparent or if I just came up with a system that now feels good because I've been using it.
Oh, also - put synesthesia in the video tags if you haven't, the way you titled the video might make it less likely to pop up in people's searches.
I also don't have synesthesia but I have a very strong need for color coding. Maybe that has something to do with our brains necessity to organize stuff and make it easier for us. It is kind of an addiction, though.
A little praise for you, Adam:
I forwarded your video to a Professor, who has been doing scientific research about this topic for years. He thinks, it is pretty accurate and particularly likes the visual effects you used. A good insight for non-synesthisians into this extraordinary sense of perception.
What on earth is your profile pic
@@charliek115 its a soman on a pole... duhh
Those sounds at 5:53 made life 1/4 look like symmetrical black squiggly lines dude, also love your voice. It’s quite manly giving it a grey exterior but also having a intellectual base of explaining in it giving it a natural green hue. I could listen to you talk for hours 👁👅👁
in the norwegian language we tend to describe pitch as bright and dark. a deep voice is described s dark and a high pitched voice is a bright voice. very intresting to see this manifest with visuals through paople who do not haver these same assosiations with brightness and sound.
I've never heard about synesthesia before, but i do associeate almost all sorts of things with colors, for example, i can say a day was dark blue, or yellow depending on how i've felt it was. I do associate color to people in general too and the mood they're in the moment i'm seeing them. I always catch myself thinking ''This guy looks purple'' depending on what sort of thing I associate to him. Days of the week, months of the year and even hours have their own color to me.
But I don't actually associate musical notes with colors when they're on the staff, I just do it with chords, like, Am is sort of a dark green for me, C Is dark blue and Em is always red.
a yellow day sounds like a bad day :(
Elias Rosa i am exactly the same!!
A yellow day sounds pretty good to me, it's the dark blue ones that get me lol.
There's no strict structure to the associations I make though, and it usually only happens involuntarily to a minor degree mostly in very common ways.
a yellow day to me would be a sunny one. One where the sun is pouring it's rays down on me... a golden shower if you may... :/
If we couldn't show the right emotional expression, the teacher would stop rehearsal, and ask "what color is this?"
It's so cool to hear about someone else who experiences synesthesia.
I have the following "sensory crossovers":
timbre -> shape/color/transparency
grapheme -> personality
taste -> color
month -> spatial position
rhythm/melody/chord progression -> motion
Linking back to your video about musical tastes being formed at age 14, there's a bit of an exception for me - I didn't discover the music that gives me the strongest synesthetic effects until my 20s. I'm strongly drawn to EDM for its synesthetic imagery, and Ragtime for its sense of motion (and I confess it makes me sad that other genres often feel "flat" by comparison - just not evoking anywhere near the same intensity of imagery). Late 1990s pop still has emotional resonance in spite of "flat" imagery due to the "age 14 effect" :P
For what it's worth, from my own experience (your mileage will vary), here are the songs that give me the most interesting synesthetic effects:
Rockell - When I'm Gone
Paul Oakenfold (ft. Carla Werner) - Southern Sun
Enya - White is in the Winter Night
The Pointer Sisters - Jump for my Love
Duran Duran - Hungry Like the Wolf
Scott Joplin - The Maple Leaf Rag
Irene Cara - What a Feeling
When you played the f major chord I automatically thought of the Soviet anthem.
it is in c major though... i thought of Ob-la-di Ob-la-da intro
I always heard it in E flat major... but there’s probably multiple versions out there
E flat and C, most versions, and I found one in d flat
as a farsi speaker i can kinda confirm that thing with "thin and thick pitch", i kinda do have that synethetic feeling of lower notes being thick and higher ones being thin in an odd way (not the fisheye thing you showed though)
I am actually so happy to have found this video. I have synesthesia, including grapheme color for letters and numbers, number/letter OLP (personality associations), shape-color, days/months have colors, sound-spatial, aaaaaand many others. First of this video is probably the most well explained video on synesthesia I have found so far, and it's the most accurate too. Often I find other videos are too exaggerated or are not really it. But this video also finally gave an explanation to another type of synesthesia I could never find the name of. That's when you talk about the music notes actually having colors, but not the sounds of them. I am a piano player, and each note on the keyboard has a color (although for me the sound itself of the note doesn't have any). Since I also have OLP, I associate personalities with musical notes, and it's really funny because when playing piano, the notes will have little stories and conflicts with each other. I'm so grateful for this video as it finally put into words something I was experiencing and couldn't describe. Again, amazing video and thanks for sharing our view of the world to others!
i associate music with color, but it never appeared in my field of vision
When I was young, I used to explain something's format with sounds associated with gestures. Mom always found it very funny and I wouldn't understand why. Today I try not to make those associations when talking to people so they won't think I'm strange.
Also, I'm not very musical, because I can see and taste it to a point it gets kinda overwhelming to pay attention to other things.
You're right about A, B and C, but the way I see it, D is pinkish, E is green and F is purple, and G is a much lighter orange- But because I think of keys in terms of the relative minor being the default mode, the key of A major is not red, but actually purple because it's really F# minor
Great video, Adam.
Anger, he smiles, towering in shiny metallic purple armour. Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him. Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground. Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted, they quietly understand once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready, but wonder why the fight is on. My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war, and ribbons of euphoria. Orange is young, full of daring, but very unsteady for the first go round. My yellow in this case is not so mellow, in fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me. And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from giving my life to a rainbow like you!
Jimi :)
The Connection to the Video is rather abstract, but that was a very beatiful poem!
Amazing Jimi...
There's a woman painter with synesthesia called Melissa McCracken who paints what she hears and here is her painting for Jimi's Little wing :

avoqado89 I also immediately thought about this song!
Nice!
Love the range of topics you cover, one of the most stimulating music channels.
Is the explosion at 4:03 from all star by smash mouth

Yup.
Was looking for this. Second from the bottom
Adam Neely and Vsauce uploading within 5 minutes of each other? Gonna be a long night...
As someone with the Chromesthesia and Auditory-tactile forms of synesthesia I was really happy to find this video, I've been a fan for a while and must have overlooked it at the time of posting. A year late, but very impressed.
Adam made me realise that I have time-space synesthesia. My perception of time on all levels (hours, days of the week, years, centuries) have distinct, specific shapes.
Can you see a year/day/month etc ? I can but its almost impossible to draw them as they are kind of 3d
Sometimes when I play the piano, I can “hear” the note’s personalities!!
i have had color/pitch associations since i was young - i also have perfect pitch! and i also sometimes "feel" the colors in my mind's eye and oh man i almost started crying when you described chromasthesia. i remember being in choir and knowing somebody's G was flat because it was more yellow (F is yellow) than green. i remember playing bass scales and feeling the colors go deeper the lower that i went. when i hum "G", i just feel green. the way my vocal chords feel is just... green. E is pink and E♭is redviolet.... i love this video so much!!
OMG ok so i have grapheme color synesthesia too and i play the piano. At first, the notes of the page and on the key board were colorless, but now, as i begin to learn the notes more fluently by memory, colors are developing. For instance, all of the c notes on the piano are yellow, since c is yellow to me. I had never heard about another person that this happened to, and i am so glad I'm not alone!
Ava Animation what about c#/ d flat. Do thoes notes colour change depend on the how they are written.
I see C as more of a goldish colour
Only dumbest sheeple begin a sentence with "OMG"
Huh, C is a blue for me.
@Ambrose Burnside no shit Sherlock. And your name is gay af
I misread the title as Synthesia
Romantique Tp so did i
Luiz Fernando Paes AHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!
lol I thought this was about synthesia
Me too, and I thought it was a VSTi plugin review.
ikr
I'm in a weird middle where it's not always notes that have colour (though A is always blood red to me), but chords absolutely do. F major is this warm, lush green, D minor is a velvety indigo, Eb major is royal blue, etc. Fun stuff.
"That flute sounds light and airy"
Me: Hmm. I sense a correlation here.
This garden universe vibrates complete
Some, we get a sound so sweet
Vibrations reach on up to become light
And then through gamma, out of sight
Between the eyes and ears there lie
The sounds of color and the light of a sigh
And to hear the sun, what a thing to believe
But it's all around if we could but perceive
To know ultra-violet, infra-red, and x-rays
Beauty to find in so many ways
Two notes of the chord, that's our full scope
But to reach the chord is our life's hope
And to name the chord is important to some
So they give it a word, and the word is
bird. bird is the word.
when i started learning to play the piano, every time i learned the name of a note, it gave the note its color,
later intervals gain colors too,
minor 3rd is Dark blue
Major 3rd is Orange
MInor 2nd is red
I have the grapheme colour synesthesia thing and I got so frustrated every time you mentioned the colours you see in letters. NO, F IS NOT GREEN AT ALL IT IS SO ORANGE!
MarsLos10 F IS WHITE
F IS GREEN FIGHT ME
Wtf, f is blue and f# is a majestic blue mixed with my purple dude
No F is lavender
Ah F IS BLUE AND F# IS DARK TEAL
RUclips: what do you want today?
ME: a double portion of Vsauce please.
RUclips: All right, here's what I have :D
ME: wtf, he's normally talking about music xD
9 minutes and 41 seconds later
RUclips: Sooooo?
ME: Well, holy shit, it was fucking good, thanks youtube :D
excellent video Adam :D I really enjoyed it :)
Narice both posted today right? lucky us!
Yes, we really were xD
I've done this my whole life and had no idea it was anything out of the ordinary!
11 is an absolute saint. What a great guy!
This seems like an incredible advantage to me, especially for a musician.
As someone with synesthesia I understand how hard it is to explain it but I completely get everything your saying lol
I've not been diagnosed whit it but months, numbers and every day in the week has colors to me.
I thought it was normal or something to do whit how I learned these things when I was a kid
I have experienced chromasthesia twice while under the influence of LSD. It was fantastic.
Me too! I had photisms
i have chromasthesia and lsd triggers different kind of synaesthesia in me, i literally could see color and shape of the touch feeling. that was crazy. i saw how the cold feeling from blowing wind was forming a purplish blue rod and flying away behind my back.
@@xezmakorewarriah that's so wild!!! do you have chromasthesia on just a normal day?
@@funkytomtom yeah
Ok, so... Adam, I recently discovered your channel and couldn’t be more ecstatic. This video in particular plucked my strings. I am a bassist as well, and I am a synesthete as well. Chromesthesia in my case. You were able to explain my condition better that anyone else, better that whatever I could muster myself. Thank you very much for what you are doing with your channel. I feel that with your videos, not only am I becoming a better musician, but also a better human. I’d love to see you playing live. I’ll have to go to NY soon, as the chances that you play where I live are slim. Thanks again!
I've heard Aphex Twin experiences Synesthesia too! And apparently his music videos take inspiration from some of the things his music makes him 'see'
Cinnamon i love aphex twin. When i listen to his music, my mind explodes with colors, images and sounds.
Thanks for this ive been trying to explain why i dont like a song to my husband by saying it has a grating orangey red in it too much and he just stares blankly at me.
This one wasn't even incredibly musically centered and I still enjoyed listening to you talk the whole time:) love the active brain Adam !
so many people lie about having this
would you believe me if I told you the feeling and touch of a shoelace gives me a weird feeling in my mouth and tongue?
that's too damn specific to be a lie
As a musician and clarinet player different tuning and notes have different tastes. If the note or ensemble is sharp I taste something along the lines of mayonnaise always or in tune is buttered popcorn. I never really realized it had a name until stumbling upon videos like that. Not trying to self diagnose just an observation
Foop Doop that sounds really cool
everyone wants to be unique. some people just can't accept that they aren't (including me lol)
I think I may have synesthesia. Cause before this vid I’ve thought at a as red b as blue c as yellow d as purple. Maybe not as strong as yours because I only experience colors associated with songs that have a certain feeling to it. For instance Blackest Eyes by Porcupine Tree is a dark brown. And Trains by them as well is a bright blue. Trains by Steps ahead is a golden yellow. And so on.
I associate smells with colors, i smell spray paint and it’s blue, cinnamon is yellow, I don’t see it visually but the color just pops in my brain whenever I smell something
I have synesthesia aswell, but the colours are completely different than yours. It hurts watching you putting the ""wrong"" colours haha. For example, A is definitely Blue for me, so seeing Red A is very strange. Anyway, great video!
bongzilla I've always felt that A = red, B blue, C yellow and D green, just like Adam. I find that so cool.
Nooo! A is bright green, B is yellow, C is a brighter, paler yellow and D is dark crimson/brown. This stuff makes no sense. :P
A = blue
B = Green
C = Red
D = Yellow
E = Red but brighter xD
F = Green but brighter xD
G = Orange
Listen here buds, A is red. B is blue. C is gritty and teal. D is a dark color between red-brown and dark purple. E is obviously yellow. F is green. G is purple. H is light orange, and so on. This is the only truth! ;)
A is blue for me too. So is Monday.
I always associate sound with taste
FatDoge well thats fucking awesome :D
"that's a spicy chord"
How does jazz taste?
Guy Persson Like honey...
because of The Bee Movie
you are like remy from ratatouille
Thank you so much for this video! It gave me tools to explain my synesthesia to my friends, and honestly it made me feel less lonely in a strange way. It also helped me understand it from an english-speaking perspective, since my experience of it was rooted in my first language, southamerican spanish. On another note, your videos are amazing! They help me a lot to reconceptualize music, again, from another perspective. Thank you so much!
A Kiki-Bouba problem for me are the neck and bridge pickup.
The word "neck" sounds much more like the sound you get from a bridge pickup, and vice versa. This makes me confuse the two all the time.
Tjaž Brelih I have exactly the same thing... This is the internet I guess so I shouldn't be surprised to find someone else
You've literally given me way to remember! thx!
