Syncreate Podcast Episode 64: Synesthesia, Consciousness & Creativity. Full Episode Here: https://youtu.be/wo8OhDfOYpM?si=BjaX3aikKVKsG7fy

Synesthesia is defined as a blending or mixing of the senses. It can take many forms, such as tasting colors, seeing visual forms when hearing music, or associating numbers, letters, words or days of the week with specific colors, tastes, or emotions. It’s said to be experienced by only about 3% of people, but it is highly correlated with creativity.

Zoe Martell and Archie Frink are both psychology Ph.D. students at Saybrook University, where Melinda teaches, as well as talented artists, and they both also experience synesthesia. Zoe is a painter and budding musician. She holds an M.S. in clinical psychology as well as an MFA in painting and an MA in the history and theory of art from the San Francisco Art Institute. She taught psychology courses at San Francisco State University for many years.

Archie is an author, an MBA, a consciousness researcher, a clinically trained practitioner of integrative health, and a photographer focusing on extreme environments. Our conversation focuses on the experience of synesthesia, and how it relates to consciousness and creativity.

For our Creativity Pro-Tip, we encourage you to pay close attention to your sensory experience and how you experience the world, either through observing your moment-to-moment sensory experience, or through meditation, and see how it informs your creative practice.
