06 MIRROR-PAIN, MIRROR-TOUCH & TRAUMA with Aurore Dupont-Sagorin

from Let's talk Synaesthesia · host Maike Preißing

This weeks guest is the French filmmaker & journalist Aurore Dupont-Sagorin. Aurore has mirror-pain-synaesthesia, a form of synaesthesia that puts empathy to an extreme. Watching other people or movie character's getting hurt leads to her feeling that same pain in her own body. So fascinating!! We also hear from Prof Jamie Ward from the University of Sussex on synaesthesia research and the connection to mental health problems such as PTSD.
