Synesthesia - Color from Sound

The doctor called it synesthesia, but that doesn't mean that's what she has. From the looks of it, what she has definitally an ability. I don't think they're trying to pass synesthesia off as a power. That was just a doctors logical explanation.

I hope you're right, 'cause if it's otherwise I think Heroes would have messed up.

Did you see Sylar tormenting Matt? Heroes is already messed up. But I still love it!

i dunno y they did tht either, coz i was thinking not a power coz i know tht on the whole its relatively common, its not some rare unheard of thing or ne thing.

cool vid by the way. do u actually see the colours or only in ur head? Coz when I think of certian numbers i c colours. thought it was really interesting tht u gave all of them a colour tho :)

Heroes messes up constantly with thier own lore - it's just a signature of the series :)

The-Stig: It's more of an intuitive visualization than actually seeing the colors in the real world. There are those who do see colors in the real world, but I have a lesser variety of synesthesia. If I use the number 3, to me it's pink. I can imagine it as navy, but it's really pink. It makes learning math difficult because I think more of color patterns going together in certain ways than I can visualize the numbers themselves. An example is that the word "even" is light-colored and the odd digits are also light-colored, despite the word "odd" and the even numbers being dark-colored. This will always confuse me.

Shadowsign and dark_requiem: I meant messed up in terms of sensitivity to the subject, and that this might be insulting to synesthetes. Burger King once had these kids meal characters, one of which was named Wheels because he was a kid in a wheelchair. In comparison X-Men has Professor Xavier, a powerful psychic who also needs a wheelchair. Burger King is less progressive because their disabled character has his disability as the whole of his character (ignoring for a moment how much higher quality X-Men is anyway). I'm afraid of Emma being the deaf woman whose power is a stylized neurological disorder.

Okay! Well, blowing giant cracks in walls will do it.

Yeah. That was really cool.
