Interesting. In the wikipedia page it has a word I didn't know, synæstesis, and it has the interesting and rarely seen by me combined ae symbol. The internet told me this word is basically https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia. Having a sensation in one form gives rise to a sensation in another sense (seeing a number makes me think of a color associated with it). Exposure to art and ideas like this makes life so rich, love hacker news.

You should read Musicophilia by Oliver Sacks. He writes about some of his patients experiencing synesthesia. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1297985.Musicophilia
