Discover how synesthesia shapes our Arts, dreams, designs, and dances!
--------------------------
The Kautilya Foundation is delighted to host the Synesthesia Soirée for the third time.
During this evening, we explore how sight, hearing, and touch come together to shape art, design, and the human experience.
What happens when the senses push their boundaries?
When color has a sound, and movement, taste, and design speak in more than one dimension?
Join us in conversation about these boundaries with four brilliant minds working at the intersection of science, perception, and creativity. Event Details:
