It's an odd idea. Not sure exactly what they're trying to prove.

To think that someone should visually interpret music the exact same way you do and test people on it is the most pretentious crap I've seen in a while.
This is so dumb. Basically every shape represents an instrument. Up or down = pitch. Altered shaped = different melody 2nd time. etc. It's really easy. Do it twice and you'll get 90%+

Yeah. That was actually really stupid.
I thought it was going to actually be somewhat related to musical knowledge you can use, like a dictation excersize or something.

Synesthesia is a genuinely fascinating phenomenon, that test was a pile of wank.

I got 65%, and rightly so. Most of my answers were complete guesses.

most people with musical knowledge can get 90%+ on the first try.
i got a 90% on the first try because the first 2 questions i didnt know what the fuck they were asking. then i got the rest right.
