In her new book, Tasting the Universe, Maureen Seaberg takes readers on an “Eat, Pray, Love” style exploration of the fascinating, newly discovered phenomenon of synesthesia. Occurring in about 5% of the American population, synesthesia is scientifically described as a cross-wiring or lack of chemical inhibition between brain neurons. Musicians, artists, actors, writers and other creatives often possess this condition. Maureen Seaberg is a NYC-based journalist whose work has appeared in the New York Times, The Daily Beast, the New York Daily News, Irish America, ESPN the magazine, MSNBC, PBS and NBC. www.tastingtheuniverse.com |
