"Explores a dimension of synesthesia long encountered in reports of its relation to mystical and artistic vision . . . fascinating accounts."-Patricia Lynne Duffy, author of Blue Cats and Chartreuse Kittens
A violinist sees a scarlet form when he plays a certain note; a rock star sees waves of blue and green as he composes a ballad; an actress tastes cake when she utters the word "table." Described by some as a superpowerthis mingling of the senses is called "synesthesia," and the people who possess this amazing gift are called "synesthetes."
What happens when a journalist turns her lens on a mystery happening in her own life? Maureen Seaberg did just that and lived for a year exploring her synesthesia. The wondrous brain trait is often described as blended senses, but for Maureen, synesthesia is not an idle "brain tick" that can be explained away by science (although it does offer some important clues). It is a uniqueability to tap into and reveal a greater creative universe and even the divine.
