I asked 460 people with synesthesia what color numbers were (1-20). Here's the average of all the even and odd numbers together.

Here's the difference between synesthesia perceptions of odd and even numbers; the higher the bar, the more people tended to perceive even numbers as that color; the lower the bar, the more people tended to perceive odd numbers as that color

i mostly just meant it as a space to separate rainbow and non-rainbow colors but maybe its ended up more confusing than i meant

interesting, I tend to make the opposite association
(i.e., evens are red, odds are blue)
more interesting, lots of people seem to perceive numbers as being red/blue
I blame elementary school textbooks

I'm wondering how many nerds, consciously or un-, coded according to the resistor color code?
