Synesthesia listening to "All that Echoes"


Something a bit weird happened.

A fan did this while listening to the new album.

I also did a doodle while listening to the new album -- without first seeing the other:

Granted I am not as talented as the fan who created the first image, but what strikes me about this is the similarity of the two.  The plants are both tilted in the same direction and the colors are similar.  I find this similarity very curious.

They talk about synesthesia as being something peculiar to certain individuals, but I wonder whether it isn't more universal than we think.

Edit: Adding link to Lizzi's painting, which she created while listening to the HSN concert of All that Echoes, with some similarities in color & structure.




All of these images were created independently, without seeing the others first.

The similarities in color and structure here strike me as more than coincidental.
