Layers of Reality: Art & Synesthesia (original) (raw)
Extending the synesthetic code
- Intro: Welcome to the 'Layers of Reality: Art & Synesthesia' site of Dr. Hugo Heyrman, Ph.D. in art sciences. Are synesthetes people of the future? —to answer this question, and as a consequence of my scientific and artistic passion for art and synesthesia, I created this portal, online since 1995 —to present relevant sources on the art & mind connection, theory, experiments and research on the future of the senses.
- Mission: To explore the multisensory interactions of synesthesia. To connect synesthetes and their synesthetic experience with interested non-synesthetes worldwide. To develop a synesthesia culture by connecting art and synesthesia. To promote understanding of synesthesia in cultural and artistic contexts.Synaesthesia associations & researchers
