The Synesthetic Music Experience Communicator combines research in the areas of human computer interaction, music technology, and human perception to illustrate the experience of synesthesian mental imagery in response to musical sound. Synesthesia inspired musicians have reported positive benefits from the augmented awareness of sound in the areas of pitch identification, memorization, composition, and improvisation. This project attempts to communicate both the experience and performance benefits associated with this cognitive phenomenon. Several virtual worlds have been developed to facilitate group education, rehearsal, and the artistic transformation of live performances into informative and entertaining visual presentations.
