Synesthesia | Week 10
Forced Connections #2
"The production of a sense impression relating to one sense or part of the body by stimulation of another sense or part of the body."
People with Synesthesia can for example, see sound, smells colours and taste shapes. There's a variety of different sensory combinations that exists but the most common form of Synesthesia is numbers, letter and even days of the week that appears as a colour.
Pharell - Happy
When I listen to this song I immediately think Yellow. As it's a happy colour, vibrant and just loud. Also because it's the soundtrack for Minions, and minions are yellow in colour.
Noel - Your Voice
This song is a sad ballad and it reminds me of the colour Blue. Blue = Sadness as it kinda relates to the rain/storms and also used in the context "He/She was feeling blue" (Meaning down or upset). Also the colour is a soft shade and in a way fragile looking.
Red Velvet - Dumb Dumb
This reminds me of Green. Just a very refreshing song, thus freshness = Green. Also because the grass is green and it makes one happy when looking at in and relaxing in a way? The repetitive chorus acts as that component in the song.
Eminem Ft Sia - Guts Over Fear
Red. The beat is slow, but the song is angry. Hate is often associated with Red and also fire. It is obvious in the lyrics.
Adele - Skyfall
The song is strong and powerful. Reminds of Purple. Often associated with Royalty, that's how I feel about Adele's vocals.
Ailee - Heaven
This song also has strong vocals and reminds me of White. Mainly because of the title and lyrics but also the purity of the song. Not to mention it's Ailee's debut song so it fits the colour White well.
JYJ XIA Junsu Ft Tablo - Flower
Mysterious, Powerful and Dark. Thus the colour Black for this. One of the most beautiful songs Iv'e ever heard in my life thanks to Junsu's powerful vocals.
