Synesthesia is basically the different parts of the brain sort of overlapping with when receiving and processes sensory stimuli.
Essentially you can “see” sound as a color, etc.
Not everyone is a synesthete. It’s uncommon to experience it regularly. But there are many artists and musicians who claim to experience it. It’s measurable to an extent through fMRI, as different areas of your brain activate when exposed to stimuli that should only activate one area.
Kinda. In a nutshell.
But yeah, Wikipedia.
