Synaesthesia in Perspective

Beskrivelse

Synaesthesia is a fascinating phenomenon in which different senses are mixed: for synaesthetes, specific sensory stimuli automatically trigger additional perceptual experiences that are not normally perceived by non-synaesthetes. Studying synaesthesia is interesting by itself, allowing for exploration of the nature of conscious experiences. The aim of the planned symposium, however, is to put synaesthesia in perspective by also emphasizing the relevance of synaesthesia for other fields of study, such as multisensory processing, sensory substitution, development of sensory processing, and connectivity in sensory systems.
