İ am studying on visual perception of visually impaired users and designers. For sharing the act of designing experiencel, i am seeking for low-vision designers if there are any.
Mahmut Ferit Aydin Mahmut, Not only are there are some….but there’s entire cultures who are more generous in avoiding such strict segregation (an either or) visually normal people from others.
I’m struggling to understand the assumption you make that there are only two; that is visually “normal” or visually impaired artists and designers. In my experience vision is made of physical, emotional, intellectual and “soulful” components. Together they form how we see and, in this context, how artists and designers strive to learn to “see”. In essence, I recommend (1) looking at vision as a continuous spectrum with each from their unique insights making contributions to art & design (2) not describing (only) one part of the visual spectrum as worthy of recognition for what it contributes to society. Oh, by the way, until we tested the vision of our children we thought they were intellectually impaired. Not simply in need of glasses. Same with the elderly!!!
@Lee Clawson thank you for your mindfull suggestions and descriptions. By dividing into two, i meant to focus on opthalmologica division to address the specific designers with any kind of visual acquity lose. For instance i can see only 10% but i design like i see as well as normal vision designers. I think this situation would represent what you described. I have developed many ways to see better to survive and do designs. I am researching on how designers with vision lose should develop ways to see better, how they look and manage their recognition to better address their perceptions.
Now i am looking for such designers to share the experiences of seeing and designing with the vision lost.
Thank you so much.
Mahmut Ferit Aydin Mahmut, Apple announced this yesterday. I don't know anything more than what it says. Nor, if this would be helpful for you...but...I sure like imaging this. "Apple introduces new features for cognitive accessibility, along with Live Speech, Personal Voice, and Point and Speak in Magnifier"
