About This Lesson
Question and Answer session with James Wannerton, a man who can taste sounds because he has extra connections in his brain - a condition called lexical-gustatory synaesthesia. Some people think that 1 in 23 of us have some form of synaesthesia - including seeing music as colors, or numbers or names as colors. Part of the Wellcome Trust's latest issue of Big Picture.
