Mondo term (ID and Label) MONDO:0013001 synesthesia

Reason for deprecation This is not a disease, and may be obsoleted or moved to another hierarchy

Suggested term to consider N/A should this be added to HPO?

Another form of synesthesia joins objects such as letters, shapes, numbers or people's names with a sensory perception such as smell, color or flavor. source: https://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/syne.html#:~:text=Synesthesia%20is%20a%20condition%20in,as%20smell%2C%20color%20or%20flavor.

The composer Scriabin claimed to see colors when he heard music. https://www.wqxr.org/story/99054-synesthesia-scriabin-and-seeing-music/ It is well worth getting acquainted with his music! If you are not familiar, take 1 minute to listen to the first prelude here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ry5L3_0XVuk
