This project presents an inquiry and exploration of the tactile sense that has been gradually losing significance in our everyday life. It investigates three aspects of touch;
1. Fading Touch / the deterioration of the senses,
2. Physical Touch / how touch is perceived, and
3. Accepted Touch / the limitations of touch in social and cultural norms.
In recognition that:
Tactility is not blind immediacy – not merely sensorial but cognitive, too.
The intention is for users to rediscover and re-encounter their sense of touch and ultimately, be able to take away a deeper understanding of the role of touch in the world we live in today. |
