Wednesday 22 April: What does a song look like?
Paint or draw a song (a song without words is easier). If you do this with someone else in your household, how do your images differ? Do different instruments have different colours? Does the speed of music change the lines or patterns you use?
All images by Melissa McCracken, an artist with Synesthesia. This Artist with Synesthesia Sees Colors in Music and Paints Your Favorite Songs. Clockwise from top left:
