UKSA – UK Synaesthesia Association
Description: Founded in 2013, the CSA is a community of Canadian synesthestes seeking to promote awareness of synesthesia while also offering assistance to researchers and exploring our abilities together.
In January and February 2022 we’ll be holding a few Zoom meetings for Canadians across the country with various forms of synethesia. Details will be sent out to those on our email list (you can sign up here on this site). The meetings will be held based on the various forms of synesthesia that people have so that they can meet others with shared experiences.
Recently the CBC aired a sceintific radio program on taste for which they interviewed a lexical-gustatory synesthete member of ours from British Columbia. The segment of the show which looks at synesthesia begins around the 35:30 mark. https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/1498957891535
If you’ve never chatted about your synesthesia with a bunch of other synesthetes, you’re in for a treat. While one goes through life naturally building a rich understanding of tastes, smells, sights, sounds, & touch by all one discusses with others about such things, it’s truly through meeting other synesthetes that one’s understanding of one’s own synesthetic perceptions increases.
