Much of our science and technology relies on the visualization of complex data, and chemical biology, more than most fields, often deals with complex datasets. There are, however, other ways of making information available to our senses beyond the visual. Rare individuals naturally have sensory crossover, whose synesthesia permits them, for example, to see colors or shapes when hearing sounds or to sense a specific taste with a specific word. Many scientists, technologists and inventors, however, make a conscious attempt to convert one type of sensory-like input to a different sensory output. A laser light show, for example, converts sound to sight; infrared imaging converts heat to sight. Two recent examples of such intentional synesthesia are discussed in this context: sight-tasting and smell-seeing.

我们的许多科学技术都依赖于复杂数据的可视化,而化学生物学比大多数领域更多地处理复杂数据集。但是,还有其他方法可以使我们的感官获得视觉以外的信息。稀有个体自然具有感觉交叉,例如,其联觉使他们能够在听到声音时看到颜色或形状,或者用特定的单词感知特定的味道。但是,许多科学家,技术人员和发明家都有意识地尝试将一种类似感觉的输入转换为不同的感觉输出。例如,激光表演将声音转换为视线; 红外成像将热量转换为视线。在这种情况下,讨论了这种故意联觉的两个最近的例子: 视觉品尝和嗅觉观察。
