title: A case of color-taste synesthesia.
abstract: This is a report on a case of color-taste synesthesia exhibited by an artist painter. This case is unique in that it is not common for color to appear as an inducer or taste as a concurrent. A comprehensive description of this particular case of synesthesia is provided first. The application and results of consistency, psychophysical, and Stroop tests are presented later. Finally, the difficulties encountered with the application of such tests are discussed.
