Subject: [K-list] Synesthesia is 1 out of 50 000
From: Jacques De Schryver
On 2001/05/29 00:45, Jacques De Schryver posted thus to the K-list: Hello,
Scientists suppose one person out of 50 000 has synesthesia (different
from kynesthesia which is related to muscular feelings). They
precedently thought it was one out of 500 000. Photographic memory is
one out of 2000 (as stated by a survey in Surrey, England).
The first best book about it is 'Mind of a mnemonist', by the russian
searcher Luria.
I highly recommend its reading.
Vienamin, the subject of the book, couldn't forget anything, when I,
Froggy Jacques, can't learn anything easily. Isn't it funny ?
Nicolas Tesla had it too. And it seems to sprout in whole families...
Vienamin sister had iot. Tesla mother and aunt had it.
These synesthesists seem to have a high developed power located probably
in the locus cereleus, as stated by Solomon Snyder from NIMH.
I'll tell more if you are interested. Just recall that peyotl (mescaline
producing cactus), as described by Aldous Huxley, just has the same
effect.
Greetings from France,
Froggy Jacques
