Synesthesia
Hey guys, I've decided to change my project to one about Synesthesia. Synesthesia is the linking of two or more different senses. For example, if you see a certain color in a certain shape when hearing certain sounds, you are a synesthete. If you taste or smell certain things when hearing certain sounds, you are a synesthete. There are many different things that are associated with synesthesia, and no two synesthetes are alike in what they experience. I really want to learn more about what causes it. I read a fictional book based on scientific facts about synesthesia a few years ago and I think it's really fascinating, but I'm not exactly sure how to go out doing a project on this that can reach out to our community/country..any ideas? Let me know what you think?
Thanks much

I have two ideas for what I can publish about synesthesia. The first one is a binder/informational booklet about synesthesia, just a simple explanation of synesthesia and its causes and effects, as well as other facts and information about synesthesia. I would want to give a copy to maybe pediatricians or teachers who are not aware of synesthesia. This could better help them pinpoint a child's learning disabilities or talents. The booklet could also help me in my presentation to the class, like notecards.
My other idea is a video/documentary about synesthesia. I could also present this video to teachers and pediatricians. Also, I could maybe show it to psychology students at the school, if they are interested.
Do you guys have any other good ideas, or thoughts to add on to what I already have? Please let me know.
Thanks much

Mary! There was a radio show on your topic the other night.
Did you know that Vladimir Nabokov (Remember from AP Lang: "Good Readers and Good Writers"?)had synesthesia?! Unfortunately, you can't listen online, but you can download the program for a fee. Here's the URL: http://www.lcmedia.com/mind462.htm. |

I think that your project is going to be extremely interesting. I was looking up some stuff about it to learn the basic idea. It would be really cool if you knew someone who had this that would be willing to talk to us about it. (If they wouldn't be embarassed!) Whats the fiction book that you read that dealt with it? I would love to read it.
I love you Maryyyy! -Mariah |
