    In today’s episode, we take a slightly different angle. We explore color through the eyes of a professional who works with music. Operatic mezzo-soprano Emily Harmon shares how music affects her vision and her extraordinary relationship with color through synesthesia.

    I found our conversation fascinating, and it led me to question how a color grade could be shaped by the emotion of the moment, even at a subconscious level.
