Very interesting comments here. I realize it's a bit late, but I can't help but offer my opinion on the way that synesthesia affects perception. Many known synesthetes have been tested and retested, and while much has been revealed, there is still much left to learn. For the purpose of art, though, I think that it can be quite beneficial to perceive our creations not much differently than a synesthete would. The most placating piece of art is one that placates the most senses.
