I am deeply honored that you like this. I have sight myself and am trying not to be disrespectful of an experience of the world that doesn't include sight or includes it in a very different way than I have. I am usually not synaesthetic. However, there are things that I know SHOULD be multi-sensory experiences despite coming in through a single sense, IF my intuitive/experiential/spiritual side was all the way turned on, which it almost never is; I do not have a word for that. I am strong on visual, verbal, sequential-logical, and inTRApersonal modes of learning, not so much on kinesthetic, scent or taste, inTERpersonal, or spatial-geometric modes. I want to balance speaking for my own experience with NOT speaking OVER other people's experiences. It is a work in progress. As soon as I read this prompt, I was thinking "this is cool, I have to do this," and also "wait I have no idea what this experience/species/culture would be like." Then I thought something like, "if I try to imagine myself into this experience, would I speaking over top of what someone with more understanding would say, so maybe I should walk away, but imagining things that aren't already things for me is important too, oh wait, that's the whole point of where my brain is going with this."
