I have this, although for me it's not that exciting. It's more just factual, "a" is red, "s" is green. I'm not having some kind of artistic experience reading text.

One time I met someone who said they saw sounds as colors, and the way they described it came across much more visceral.

If anything I think it helps me remember some things like text, because each word is a unique combination of colors.

That's really interesting. How does that affect text that is coloured, then?

You mean when a word is printed in blue or something? It's just both colors at the same time.
