The Synesthesia Network | Kaitlyn Hova | TEDxOmaha

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. In this talk and musical performance, Kaitlyn Hova opens up the experiences of synesthetes, people who demonstrate multiple sensory experiences. Hova sees the world in a colorful way, and she shares her view in a special way.

Early in Kaitlyn Hova’s musical career, she realized she correlated sound with specific colors. She later learned that her ability to “see” sound was a form of synesthesia. Kaitlyn has since created The Synesthesia Network, an online synesthesia resource, and gives talks and lectures on the subject. Matt Hova, her husband, designed a light show that gives audiences a simulated experience of pitch-to-color synesthesia that responds to a violin in real time.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
