In several ways; some syneasthetic, others I'm less sure. The main one for me is that things I see and hear give me a weird mix of tactile, proprioceptive, and interoceptive sensations. They're very hard to describe, totally unlike any other feelings from those senses: it's as if I can feel the stimulus passing through me, or like my body is being warped somehow. For example, walking across a floor with a tiled pattern will make it feel like the pattern is making ripples through my head or chest. It's never bothered me and never really causes me any problem - other than learning to stop telling people about it because of the funny looks they gave me!
Pretty much all of the time I have prominent visual snow, and varying degrees of visual and auditory migraine (I occasionally get full-blown migraines, so I assume that's what it is.) Those react quite strongly to other stimuli, especially to sound - they'll kind of dance along with it, or get brighter and more jagged when there are noises that I don't like.
