So this is a video I watched a little while ago, i found it allot more interesting when i first watched it then now.

Today in college we did our first workshop on our ideas for our projects. I talked about how i wanted to base my project on different ways of understanding data. I think it would be fascinating to transform data in to a form that is easier for visually impaired people to read. Maybe something physical that can be touched or heard.

I read an article today about how blind people precept beauty and how even tho they cant appreciate somebodies appearance, they still ask their friends if the person is good looking before considering dating them. One girl explained that "beauty to her is when you can experience something with all senses." So even tho this lady had lost her sight, her appreciation for an attribute only recognised with something she didn't have, is still really important to her.

The article was from a beglian magazine called THE WORD. Find the article on their online magazine by clicking here, its on page 65.

So after a good day of research and thinking about possible paths to take my project, i've decided to change it a little.

I now think that i would like to base my project on unusual links between two completely different types of information or data.

I posted about this earlier on, but i think it would be fascinating to find really awkward correlations between two completely abstract pieces of data. I also fancy adding a bit of humour to the project... Im working on it!
