The Interior of Blindness

The Prompt

Trace the intellectual lineage of Notes on Blindness. Cite Hull's audio diaries or his memoir Touching the Rock, at least one study of the experience within Gaggioli's framework of Transformative Experience Design, and one other source on the phenomenology of blindness — Diderot's Letter on the Blind, Merleau-Ponty on perception, or a contemporary study of sensory substitution. For each source, explain what it contributes to understanding the relationship between perception and knowledge, and how the interactive work draws upon or departs from the intellectual tradition it inherits.

Completion Criteria

Three citations (Hull, Gaggioli or a study applying his framework, and one further source on the phenomenology of blindness) and a short essay of three or four paragraphs on the relationship between perception and knowledge.
