<p>This week, American singer-songwriter Angel Olsen joins host Mathias Rosenzweig to learn about synesthesia, the perceptual phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway. Like, what does that even mean! Angel learns: what are the different types of synesthetes? How did we prove that this is a real phenomenon and not just a bunch of cooky mooky? And is she herself a synesthete?&nbsp;</p> <p>Our specialist on today's episode is artist and founder of the American Synesthesia Association Carol Steen.&nbsp;</p> <p>Click <a href="https://synesthesia.com/#/Task/0/0/gateway-synesthesia-test-synaesthesia-test-quick-version/1011">here</a> to find out of you're a synesthete! &nbsp;</p> <p>V WANNA KNOW was created and is hosted by Mathias Rosenzweig</p> <p>It's produced by Ryan Killian Krause and Mathias Rosenzweig</p> <p>Our editors are Citizens of Sound</p>
