What else do you see besides generic numbers?
I see time differently, days of the week, yearly calendar, distance units, temperature. All these, maybe more I can't recall now, visualize different from just numbers. E.g. the year is a loop. If I want to recall a month name, I always see a part of that loop, and the camera is not fixed. I'm fairly certain my mind didn't come up with this on its own, but there were some visual that got paired with it. Same with numbers I suspect, but this one is more obvious.
- picometer 5y agoI have this as well, including the loops for time units (day, week, year) and varying “camera” perspectives. Sometimes it’s labelled as “space-sequence synesthesia” (or “space-time”, which sounds cooler but doesn’t cover the non-time sequences like temperature). Always fun to find someone else with it in the wild!
- rplnt 5y agoThanks for the name. Never really tried searching for it. One more example I found is alphabet.
