Far "see" the colors to the blind




The blue looks good on you, people who go, you find that color, what color is the feeling of cold?: These are some of the titles chosen by Daniela Floriduz to present the project www.odorisuonicolori.it senses that offers programs geared to the "mental training" by the idea of \u200b\u200bcolor blind people. A website, a reserved area with games and activities, a hardback kit consists of eleven sheets, one for color, scent and tactile stimulation complete this interesting editorial work edited by Lidia and Mario Beduschi Varini.Il project stems from, always deeply felt, to make accessible to the blind works of pictorial art. My approach (there are many, as is known), from the consideration that the first of the "form" should be and we can build an "alphabet" of colors not only nominalist, but perceptive. In this
synesthesia helps us back on top in the reflection on perception, thanks to the development of neuroscience and the same review of the nature of synaesthetic perception.
The novelty of my career, than for example in some ways similar to the CNR., Is in having chosen as a starting point for the construction of the non-physical perception of color, but the cultural, to delay the investigation neuroimaging study of the neurophysiological results of the "mental training" of the idea of \u200b\u200bcolor.
studies of Brent Berlin and Paul Kay, Basic Color Terms, Berkeley, University of California Press, 1969, I have provided the basis etnoscientifiche for the construction of a code synaesthetic the eleven basic colors, each color associated with it a sense of smell, an auditory perception, a sign / symbol tactile: the semiotic codes, my building has a conventional and arbitrary nature, characteristics that allow sharing as well as the experiential personnel.
The landing, not after a quick work with a blind typhlology primary and secondary with a young blind woman, in the years 2002/03, 2004/05 academic year is gained in my Venice ethnoscience course entitled "The colors the dark. " During the course were also carried out field research, which will be subject to analysis in a book I have in preparation the methodology followed throughout the process that led to the "product", or better tool now available: a kit with stiff eleven "sheets" that bear fragrant touch the symbol of each color, to be used to complete the course and build synaesthetic patiently for the first "alphabet" of eleven cultural colors, along with the website www.odorisuonicolori.it/ . Everything from test and perfecting "in-use" with the blind that the "practices"
