experience one:

A memory which now i realize was a synaesthesic experience was the first time i ever saw a birds nest. I remember my father hitching me high up on his shoulders. From memory I was confused and a little bedazzled at this 'specimen' known as a 'birds nest'. It was not bowl shaped; nor orange, as i had seen in 'Meg the witch' books.
The smell came to me in a abunance of warmth; like the down in my grandmothers handmade dogs bedding. The smell kept me safe... towering far beyond my well adjusted height. The baby birds; so fragile... i wanted to pick one up, nurse it softly until she stopped her weeping and place it back, but her tiny frame, her wings and neck far to fragile for anyone to find a point of stength. The noises which escaped the tiny birds beaks were almost like a heavy metal band dubed over a silent night solo on a candle lit dinner. An orchastra so loud, piercing....vivid baby birdy tweets.

experience two: The sound of a word or name which is not supported by any associated image

object: Peace (rose)

The Peace rose is the most famous rose. It is a Hybrid Tea rose with very large flowers and a light yellow to cream colour. It was developed by French horticulturist Francis Meilland in the years 1935 to 1939. When Meilland foresaw the German invasion of France he sent cuttings to friends in Italy, Turkey, Germany, and the United States to protect the new rose. The name "Peace" is a trade name; its formal cultivar name is Rosa 'Madame A. Meilland'. It was given the name Peace on 29 April 1945 in the United States. This was the very day that Berlin fell, officially considered the end of the Second World War in Europe. Later that year Peace roses were given to each of the delegations at the inaugural meeting of the United Nations in San Francisco, each with a note that read "We hope the 'Peace' rose will influence men’s thoughts for everlasting world peace".when experiencing the peace rose with knowledge of it background we appreciate its senses in a singular form. As ‘flowery’ as it may sound, close your eyes when you next examine a rose,, see its touch , taste its smell . The combination of the sences though the examination of a rose brings a multitude of emotional links and feelings. the peace rose does exactly what its name suggests; warm colours, a calming scent and a touch of peace.

example- sound:

Hendrix chord
The Hendrix Chord is a name commonly used to refer to the Augmented 9th Chord (7#9). The chord acquired this name as it was something of a signature chord used by guitarist Jimi Hendrix. Some examples of Jimi Hendrix songs in which the chord is used are "Purple Haze" and "Foxy Lady," from his 1967 album Are You Experienced?. As Jimi was a synaesthete, he saw this chord as a 'purple haze'; thus it is played under the word 'purple' in the song. It has, in fact, been asserted that the song was written about the chord.
