Episode Synopsis


On this episode, we revisit Pamela Watts interview with local artist and handbag designer, Kent Stetson. Then we take another look at Michelle San Miguel’s intriguing story about a world where some people not only hear music, but also see it and where even the words they see can have flavors and colors and even smells.  The neurological condition is known as synesthesia and more of us have it then you might think.  Finally, we revisit  Rose Island where producer Isabella Jibilian introduced us to the Island’s manager Mike Healey who gave us a tour for our continuing series, Window on Rhode Island.
