Resolving the bouba-kiki effect enigma by rooting iconic sound symbolism in physical properties of round and spiky objects

The “bouba-kiki effect”, where “bouba” is perceived round and “kiki” spiky, remains a puzzling enigma. We solve it by combining mathematical findings largely unknown in the field, with computational models and novel experimental evidence. We reveal that this effect relies on two acoustic cues: spect...
