Light to view

From meeting James it came up that light and touch are a very important contribution to how he can see things, so with that I have produced some pieces that will be part of the A1 poster with this concept in mind.

You can feel the letters but if held up to the light you can clearly see the type ... when first looking at the folded poster it appear blank. 

Point of view

Firstly - Merry Christmas :)

For my current project for Why Not Associates there have been some developments. I want to show through my poster and publication, how James Harris (the person I meet for task set) sees thing with his visual impairment. 

His eye conditions:

- coloboma  of the optic nerve  - left eye

- Glaucoma  - left eye

- Retinal detachment s - left eye (re-attached with firstly gass then oil bubble)

- Complete blindness - right eye

Some experimental piece for my current project. 

All would be read by touch.

Tactile Design

Design for the blind, this both the topic for my current graphic project and dissertation. For the project I have been set by 'Why Not Associates' I had to meet someone I would not perhaps meet in my everyday life. So I decided to meet someone blind / with a high impairment.

I meet two lovely people who both has a condition called Glaucoma along with blind in one eye, in the meeting I discovered things could be made a lot easier for them and so with both this project and my dissertation I plan to look into this and make people more aware.
