Dear Sarn:
1. many a high school science fair is crowded with plants responding to
music,heavy breathing,colors and perfume...but there is no
agricultural/ie significant commercial growth
2. some brain damaged folks do experience something called synesthesia
...which is a way learning in one modality can be greatly and I mean
greatly enhanced by another..ie colors...with sounds etc....in the
normal pop...it has little marketable value...except for folks with
certain really specific epileptic foci...and or learning dis.
3. I would suggest that you refine your hypotheses regarding color
and sound...and visit..the index of the Acoustic Society of America
/which you can find in any good library
4. also American Speech,Language and Hearing Association web page may
be able to refer you to a good research psychoacoustician and or
or research audiologisti who has studied this area...Dr. Phil Liberman
an Brown University may also be able to help you.
