Grayscale Synaesthetic Spectrum
It occurred to me, if I’m gonna order the letters by visual spectrum why not order their grayscale equivalents by value? And, lo, it was done: This new ordering is now: OUXYSVWAQHDGMBEPFKNZTJCIRL 8029635417

Rejiggered Synaesthetic Spectrum
For some reason I was thinking of the synaesthetic spectrum I prepared for this blog a couple years back, and it occurred to me that while it was a spectrum of the colors as far as alphabetic order is concerned, it wasn’t really a spectrum as far as wavelength is concerned. Of course, that means we
Alphanumeric Synaesthetic Interpretation of Digital Self-Portrait Pixel Values
This is an old project that suddenly found new life. It also needs a bit of explanation. Let’s say you have a black and white digital image, all shades of gray. Each of these pixels has a value that ranges from 0 (black) to 255 (white). This range looks odd, until you realize it’s actually

Synaesthetic Spectra
Just out of curiosity, I decided to build a spectrum for how I see letters and numbers. Forthwith:
Another Synaesthetic Note
This is on my website as well, but I figured it would be nice to link it here, as well. It’s a time readout made of squares, each of which displays a color corresponding to the color I associate with each number. The top row is the time (HHMM) and the bottom row is the
So What Does “Mindhue” Mean?
“Mindhue” is a reference to my alphanumeric synaesthesia, where different numbers and letters associate with different colors. For example, to me, the “m” in “mindhue” is a orangy red, while the “n” is a much darker red. “D”, on the other hand, is pure orange. “I” is black, whereas “u” is white. “H” and “e”
