Many of you all have stated that you see visuals when listening to sounds and music, but what about the other way around? Do any of you all hear sounds in your head when viewing animated objects that are actually silent. For example, I was behind a construction truck with one of those sequencial blinking arrows yesterday evening. Of course the sign was not making any noise, but had 3 stages to it's blinking. All the while staring at it my mind was adding it's own sounds to the silet visual. This even happens despite the prescence of other sounds, like the radio playing and the other un-related noises from the construction zone. It doesn't need to be lights though it can be other moving / animated objects too.

Well, no. However, I do tend to imagine what things feel like.

That happens to me as well, but only with some 'animated' images. :roll: , for example, sounds like a faint 'wheeeeeee boop'
