Did you know...

That about 2% of all people see numbers in colours? This slows them to distinguish between numbers faster, which is a test of the severity of the condition. The reason for this condition is that the brains of these people have the colour and number sections close, and the membrane between them is thinner than usual allowing faster, more efficient flow of thought through these sections of the brain. This condition allows us to use our "creativity" more freely and people with this condition usually end in fields of innovative study. Depending on how severe the condition is, the person could see numbers in colours or shades or depths. Musicians, those who have a talent for reading and analyzing music at high speeds allowing them to sightread much better usually have this condition.
