Architecture & Disability: Sensory Design - Part 1
Description
The discussion refers to the "Now concept" episodes and "Architecture and Disability" with reference to a Ted Talk by David Eagleman on "Can We Create New Senses for Humans" where I find this talk by the neuroscientist amazing exploring ideas on sensory substitution and sensory addition working with blind and deaf persons, such as the "umvelt", a sensory interface vest that uses the body sense of touch. Could we approach a similar way when designing architecture or transit designs such as a bus stop.
