Synesthesia is a unique phenomenon in which a sense, such as sound, triggers another sense, such as sight or smell. Or this: synesthesia is a perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.

- Research Questions –

What is the relationship between synesthesia and archetypes?

Can a sound or environmental archetype serve as the trigger that produces the same experience as synesthesia?

When you hear the sound of the bulldozer in the rain forest, do you then envision a tree stump?

Does the archetypal bulldozer sound help you experience a new archetypal sound (winds)?
