this is next level neurological genius shit

you dudes are missing out

Inhuman · 12.10.2007, 10:23 PM

Thanks for sharing the video. I really like the phantom limb mirror box idea, it's genius. And I love how he explained the "KEKE" and "BOOBA" shapes and how our brain will wire the names from their sounds to what their visual appearance are.
There needs to be more threads like this!

ALIEN ANAL · 12.10.2007, 10:27 PM

is this the synesthesia doco?

i havnt watched the vid yet, but inhumans comment about the keke and booba its exactly like this other doco i watched

i often think about these sorts of things and how well words match up with their visual appearance

No problem!
I too often spend a lot of time linking two different senses inanimately, often from music to a color. I can see genres like Reggae, Dub, Funk, and G-funk as being brighter, warmer yellows and oranges, where certain Drone metal albums being dark blues and blacks. It can be quite obvious with the color links for some artists, but it's interesting altogether

ALIEN ANAL · 12.10.2007, 11:08 PM

hmm my "do you have synesthesia" thread must of gone unnoticed, or maybe people were not aware of what it was when i posted the thread

i link colours to numbers

Anngella · 12.11.2007, 12:49 AM

That's so awesome. I was actually thinking about this today. How certain words are circular and others are more triangular.

!@#$%! · 12.11.2007, 01:40 AM

it cracks me up when he says "ok, you're mutants", ha ha ha

it's true

ALIEN ANAL · 12.11.2007, 01:47 AM

!@#$%! · 12.11.2007, 01:49 AM

wtf man? play it again. it's the whole last third.

apparently, your angular gyrus is more developed than most mammals

no, seriously. it is.

ALIEN ANAL · 12.11.2007, 01:56 AM

i have seen this guy before on a doco about synesthesia, i loved it so much
he also talked about the language things, he went along a beach with 2 shapes and asked what people thought where the names..it was clearly obvious what people were going to pick. but i guess thats the point

Rob Instigator · 12.11.2007, 03:37 PM
