01 / Overview

Synaesthesia refers to the phenomenon of interconnection between different senses, such as the interaction of hearing, vision, taste, and smell. This is a rare neurological characteristic, not a disease or disorder. The most common form of synesthesia is color perception, which involves perceiving sound or music as colors.

02 / How visitors use it

The unit is designed for unsupervised public use: controls are recessed or shielded, moving parts are enclosed, and the interface is operable by a child of about six with no instruction. Where a screen is used, the language can be switched without changing the hardware, and the content can be replaced on site.

03 / The science behind it

Synaesthesia, also known as synesthesia or synesthesia, refers to the phenomenon of mutual influence among senses such as hearing, vision, taste, and smell. This is a rare characteristic of the nervous system, rather than a disease or disorder. In 2006, Simner and her colleagues from the University of Edinburgh interviewed nearly 1700 participants and tested their consistency. Certified synesthesia accounts for 4.4% of this group, which is 1 in every 23 people. There are various forms of synesthesia. Currently, there are over 80 different combinations of synesthesia. For example, graphic color synesthesia, sound color synesthesia, taste shape synesthesia, number personality synesthesia, etc. Synaptic individuals with synesthesia characteristics can perceive and express their impressions and emotions about things through different senses.

04 / Built for a public floor

Every unit leaves the factory after a running test: mechanisms cycled, electronics burned in, edges dressed, fixings torqued and marked. Wear parts — bearings, sliders, lamps, belts, touch panels — are modular and listed on the spare-part sheet, so a venue technician can replace them without returning the exhibit. Crating is plywood with foam blocking; the loading plan and packing list travel with the shipment.
