This is a documentation space for my master's project for the Digital Media program at Georgia Institute of Technology. My project invovles exploring the effects of certain atypical neurocognitive syndromes through digital interfaces. The syndrome i'm using as a medium to study the visual and auditory effects through an interface is Synaesthesia.

Synaesthesia is a neurological syndrome involving a mapping of two different senses. If there are visual and auditory elements involved, we can simulate the mapping of one sense to another. By providing an Artificial Synaesthesia device, that performs such an interactive mapping and displays a visualization that allows users to gradually realize the result of the different mapping process, I hope to provide another perception of music for people by revealing to them the result of atypical cognitive processing (Synaesthesia) of music.
