He said, "I don't see anything".....man that fucked me up!!!!

then he said he knew what black was to me, in a way......damn, that blind dude was mean as hell to me, I was only a kid fer criissakes!!!!!!!!!

Cool.

This is an artificial reproduction of the experience of synesthesia, not dissociative fugue. Dissociative fugue is when one forgets their relationships and who they are, usually as the mind's only way to escape an unbearable life (troubled marriage, etc.). The condition is cured when the person is faced with someone from his past life and his brain is forced to recall.

I have that when listening to music but it's usually 2d and lots of browns and blues, with higher notes are random acts of percussion as yellow or red.

Years ago a friend of mine was sure that you could produce a midi sequence from music audio. I was certain you could not because (similar to what Ant says) you can use analysis to extract frequency information (FFTs, for example), but you cannot extract waveforms of indiviual instruments. One would have to know, at the minimum, all the instruments being played in the audio. You would have to use analysis to determine which instruments are part of the current composite wave form and at what stage of the sound wave each individual instrument was currently at. Seems like a daunting (if possible) task.

Then again, I could be totallyout of my mind about this...
