For all of our friends around the USA and around the world, we will be happy to come to your local community and conduct our "Secrets of the Hebrew Bible" seminar.

Letter by Letter a Sacred Text is born ...
Rabbi Zacharia Eisenbach dips his quill into a jar of black ink, then
painstakingly restores each faded calligraphic letter. The quill makes
a soft scratching sound as it travels slowly across the parchment. The
work, intensely physical, straining the eyes and nerves, is precise and
time-consuming.

Mapping the Sonic Rainbow
For the past 3000 years music and colors has been acknowledged by Jewish tradition as powerful facets of the Hebrew letters. Here is what happens when colors and music express themselves simultaneously in a composer's brain: People with synesthesia experience a joining of the senses.
For example, a word will have a taste -- or music will be colourful, as it was for Messiaen. These are not mnemonic associations; the synesthete cannot help experiencing the shapes, colours, and/or tastes provoked by real-world stimuli. The condition -- or ability, depending on how you see it -- is poorly understood, and it is not known how many synesthetes there are, although they are prominent in creative fields. Known or suspected synesthetes include Vladimir Nabokov, physicist Richard Feynman and painter David Hockney; the jury's still out on Jimi Hendrix and Wassily Kandinsky.
