Every chord has color--the way memory has color--the way memory has a scent.
C Major smells like an old pair of boxing gloves.
D Major & D Minor are left & right jabs. They are the color of my father's face when he would get mad.
E Major is coppery--the aftertaste of a bloody lip.
E Minor is the glow of neon after dark--when you run away from home.
F Major is the color of your heart--when you skip confession.
F Minoe is the black and blue of a fighter's face--when he tells you not to follow in his footstepps.
G Major is the rush of adrenaline it takes to push a drunken old man from the path of a speeding truck.
G Minor is the burning of your eyes as you lose them.
A Major is the empty hole in your stomach--when your father dies--and you have not become what he wanted you to be.
A Minor is a shadow. It reminds you of waking up in permanent midnight.

ll have to look more into it.
I've only ever been to visualize musical motion (how high or low the note is) as a sort of swiggly line thing that looked like a negative image you'd get when you shut your eyes...and that was only hours of meditating and doing yogaric breathing in rhythm w/the music; I could never get to the point where I assigned different colors toeach tone in the scale, etc. though...my meditation teacher at the time said you can teach yourself that type of combination sensory perception...but a lot of other people say you can't...I don't know...
