Someone with an amazing synesthesia of being able to see time
By
A special perceptual phenomenon seen in some people that causes not only normal sensations but also different types of sensations in response to a stimulus is called 'synesthesia.' People with this synesthesia can see sounds with perceptual information, feel taste as color, and feel numbers in detailed tones. Psychologist David Brang, who is conducting research on such synesthesia, is conducting research on people who have strange abilities even in the synesthesia of being able to see time.

Extra neural connections can be seen between certain areas in the brains of subjects with a special synesthesia of being able to see time, participating in Mr. Brang's research. Due to this structure, time seems to be visible as a component in space. 'It looks like a circle representing a year surrounds itself,' said one of the subjects in Mr. Brang's study.
Also, according to what Mr. Brang revealed to the scientific magazine New Scientist , synesthesia owners who can see time 'can see a year as a ring around themselves, and this circle. The year shown in the ring is divided every month, and it looks like the current month is on the chest. '
Normally, when deciding something, you often manage the schedule using a paper calendar or a calendar app on your smartphone, but if you have a synesthesia that you can see the time, you can use the calendar that you can see in front of you. It can accurately indicate a particular day. It's like looking at augmented reality (AR) without going through a head-mounted display or a smartphone camera, which is very strange to those who don't have that feeling.

Furthermore, when a test was conducted to compare the memory of the general person with the person who has a synesthesia who can see time, the person who has a synesthesia who can see time has much better memory than the ordinary person. It has become clear. Experiments have shown that people with synesthesia who can see time could memorize 123 things on average, while ordinary people could memorize only 39, which is more than three times different.
In addition, it seems that there are 'owners of synesthesia who can see time' in Japan as well, and they are writing on the Internet as follows.

Synesthesia? From ancient times, I have a conceptual diagram of the year in my head. What is this feeling like?
Until now, it was a matter of course that I didn't really care about it.
The concept of one year from ancient times appears as a three-dimensional space.
Today is September 27th, and I know where I am in my head that year.
In my year, the distance between summer and winter is long, and the oval shape where spring and autumn are close.
Every year, it feels like drawing a left-handed spiral and climbing up.

I have an image that the date of the year or the time of the day becomes a figure, but if you google it, this is also synesthesia
I was a little relieved that there was a similar person because I was told that no one would understand the meaning

It doesn't look or feel so solid
For example, if it is a date, there is a vague sphere, and it feels like the dates are rolling in the sphere, and the time is like a step in the rolling date and that step is time.
I don't understand when I write it

I might be that. It's difficult to draw a figure, but ... December is around here, and 6 o'clock is around here.
