Yeah I get that, sometimes images give me the sensation of sound. I just shrugged it off as mentalness.

i can imagine what it would sound like, but I am more interested in finding the video with the actual sound playing in the background to see if what I perceived how it WOULD sound really matches that of the video.

I seem to remember that's an observable phenomenon.

Evolutional quirk that skin cells have the capability to detect light at specific wavelengths. It's just more focussed and tuned in the eye.

I'd be very surprised if you can do it under experimental conditions with a statistically significant level of accuracy, though.

I've seen colors when I listened to music, but there were some tabs and fungus involved.
