I've always been sorta jealous of people with synaesthesia. I imagine there's probably some weird downsides but I'd love to experience it. Just, like, something dumb like what color is my favorite song, or what does 4 smell like?
My SO has some mild synesthesia, mostly just lights having a "sound". Like, our neighbor had some really obnoxiously bright flashing christmas lights that were allegedly quite loud. He "heard" something akin to a tiny truck backing up whenever he glanced out the window at the wrong time. He almost always knows if it's a real sound or a synesthesia "sound", though there have been a couple of occasions when he has had to ask me if i hear stuff while watching a show or movie that warranted an epilepsy warning. Sometimes he'll get a smell when listening music that makes him nostalgic, too, but that's only happened once or twice.
Do lots of LSD.
If you really want to, try taking some psychedelics.
