The most powerful memory systems work in the same way by associating things to other things such as in the Link and the Peg systems. The reason they work so well is because they work with the brain in the same way. I don't think this is synaesthesia. Synaesthesia is when you physically smell a colour or actually see sound. It's reported to occur during an Amanita Muscaria trip.

ah I see. LSD trips are known for a lot of people to be able to see Sound in color or Hear visions. Like A visual Impulse can be perceptd as an Auditory one as well?

I have experienced seeing like erm... sort of transparent like air-vibrations comming from a Music playing Stereo-CDplayer's boxes while Mushroom Tripping. They were Hawaiian Copelandia Mushrooms. That's a Visual Perception of an Auditory Impulse.
But I have also experienced this in weaker forms while being sober, but for instance when very very tired.
