Sensory experiment 1


Limited Vision : Rebellion

For my first experiment i will look at changing how we observe the surroundings in which we find associated with crossing the road. This will include altering the sense 'sight' which will provide a thought provoking experience as the person participating in the activity will experience an everyday activity in an altered way.In doing this i hope to create a rebellious feeling. This idea plays on the fact that crossing the road is something that each and every one of us grows up with, making it a mundane everyday activity. 


This experiment uncovered some interesting results and findings, mainly in proving how much we rely on all of our senses working in with each other. The people I used in my experiment again varied in age, from young kids in primary school to elderly, and in-between. This experiment included a pair of glasses, much like sunglasses which blocked out a certain amount of sight. In using these glasses while crossing the road, I hoped to take people out of the normal and make them feel uncomfortable, resulting in many doing rebellious things.
