etherlands Information Page on Synesthesia
 
(naar Nederlandse versie)


The interest into synesthesia has grown rapidly in the past decades. Within the network of people interested in the phenomenon of synesthesia, this website is dedicated to the activities based the Netherlands. The sites reports on Dutch scientific research into synesthesia, Dutch artists exploring the phenomenon, reports by Dutch synesthetes and other news. Since English is the second language for many Dutch, most of the contributions to this are in English, though not all. This way we hope to show what is happening with regards to synesthesia in the Netherlands.
