The Synesthesia Diary

An Ongoing Project

4"x6" (individual entry)

Color pencil and ink on grid paper


At the end of each day, I look back at what I did, places I went, people I saw, and respond to those memories in color. The sequence of colors moving right to left along the bottom edge of each color entry indicates the date in grapheme-color and time-color synesthesia. Events in the morning start just above the date and stack up, with evening and final memories of the day at the top.
