Synesthesia
A neurological phenomenon where stimulation of one sense triggers automatic experiences in another. Some people see colors when hearing music, or taste shapes. It reveals how our brains construct reality and has inspired many artists.

Concepts with related meaning based on vector similarity
Neural Networks
Computing systems inspired by biological brains, consisting of interconnected nodes that process information in layers. They learn patterns from data through training, enabling machines to recognize i...
The Overview Effect
A cognitive shift reported by astronauts viewing Earth from space. Seeing our planet as a fragile blue marble floating in darkness triggers profound feelings of unity, interconnectedness, and responsi...
Bioluminescence
The production of light by living organisms through chemical reactions. From fireflies to deep-sea creatures, this natural glow serves purposes ranging from attracting mates to luring prey. Scientists...
Quantum Entanglement
A phenomenon where two particles become correlated in such a way that measuring one instantly affects the other, regardless of distance. Einstein called it "spooky action at a distance." It's now bein...
Cognitive Bias
Systematic patterns of deviation from rational judgment. Our brains use mental shortcuts that sometimes lead to errors—like confirmation bias, anchoring, or the availability heuristic. Understanding t...
How similarity is calculated
Each concept is converted into a 768-dimensional vector using the nomic-embed-text
model. Similarity scores are calculated using cosine similarity—measuring the angle between vectors.
A score of 100% means identical meaning; lower scores indicate decreasing semantic relatedness.
