(Synaesthesia is a physiological or psychological condition whereby a particular sensory stimulus triggers a second kind of sensation, it's thought to affect less than 1% of the population, but according to Charles Spence, a professor of experimental psychology at Oxford University, we are all "synaesthetes" up to a point. I just found my point as I walked into a wall whilst munching on a Nirvana song.)
