Photographer's Unique View of the World Translated into Tactile Images for the Blind

The video discusses French photographer Jan Arthurs Bertrand's aerial photography and its transformation into tactile photos for the blind by optical designer Elaine Nickley. Using natural materials like Cerulus acetate, Nickley aims to create a new visual language for the visually impaired, similar to Braille for reading. The project, supported by London's Natural History Museum, seeks to enhance the visually impaired's ability to interpret images, with future developments focusing on tactile color appreciation.
