The Plan

My Plan
For my project I am looking into Synaesthesia, Synaesthesia is defined on Wikipedia as
“Synesthesia (also spelled synæsthesia or synaesthesia, plural synesthesiae or synaesthesiae)—from the Ancient Greek (syn), "together," and (aisthēsis), "sensation"—is a neurologically based phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. People who report such experiences are known as synesthetes.”

The first minute of this Youtube video, a documentary on Synaesthesia by Dr. David Eagleman explains the condition quite well.
