We are living in a visual world. Images and visualisations are dominating our everyday life. By focusing on the visual world we tend to neglect other sensory experiences.
With this one-day multidisciplinary event we aim to put the focus on the importance of images in our society, in particular in relation to ‘environment’ while on the other hand we will highlight the role of other sensory experiences as well as interactions and multi-sensory representations and experiences.
The event will span a range of disciplines including but not limited to e.g. Computer Science, Natural and Environmental Sciences including Climate Science, Acoustics, Landscape and Urban Planning, Visualisation and Media Studies.
