Message: [QUOTE="jiyuuboyetsvi, post: 198467, member: 222172"] yeah! first i want to preface by saying that each Synesthete has their own way of perceiving things. No two person's way of perceiving the world is different, though some things might overlap. they kinda sorta "recycle" as i go up and down the octaves. For example. a very Low C1 would be a very DARK burgundy red, where as a very HIGH C7 would be almost a blindingly bright blood red. the colours also differ depending on the instrument. for example, drums are all mostly warm colours. a snare drum is usually a deep yummy orange, while a bass/kick drum is a blend of deep dark red and lushious purple. almost like a velvet texture. Crash symbols and hi-hats are usually more of a brighter yellow colour. i havent experimented with semitones [I]on purpose[/I], but, i do play around a lot with dissonance between frequencies. when i play on my keyboard for example, i can hear all and see all of the frequencies that the specific tones that im playing are making. its easier to hear and see when i play chords loudly. when i look at the piano, it's almost as if the keys themselves light up in the order that i want to play. overtones, undertones, and residual frequencies are also things that i really like to look at. for example[I], [/I]if i play an Esus2[I] (E, F#, B) [/I]i can see the colours in the air and my favourite parts is watching the frequencies die down and pulsate through the air. it's especially prominent with pianos where there is this residual frequency in all of the tones you can produce on it that is almost like... in the very background of the note? its VERY high pitched and almost sounds like a pulsating whine. the rate of the pulsation depends on how high or low in pitch the tone is. so if it's a high pitched sound, the rate of pulsation is higher, and with a low pitch sound it is much slower. C, D# and G are all very suspicious and domineering. E, F#, and B all have this cutesy aura going on, though Bb has a lighter air about it than B natural. G# is extremely mournful and sorrowful, but in a sorta like meloncholic way. C# has that same sort of quality, but with the domineering edge of C natural. i use these feelings that i hear from the piano to formulate songs based on emotions primarily. i also just realized you said colours and not tones LOL. for colours, i really love how yellow and purple mix and match, along with cyan blue and seafoam green with a twinge of pastel yellow. i read my voice as very purple with a twinge of red in it, which is why ive customized my posting text on the forum to be that colour. what's kinda funny tho is that when i hear my voice back (specifically in recordings) it sounds a lot more yellow and blue than red and orange and purple. it really depends on how i speak or sing [automerge]1746830115[/automerge] you neeEED TO VIbRATE HIGHeR!!!
