Why "non-visual photography" is for everyone

Taking photos has become a major activity we do every day. Have you thought of taking photos without using your eyes? In a project Jane and her team led, they helped visually impaired people to explore and express themselves through this form of media. And they found that this activity is also helpful for normal people to learn and connect with the visually impaired, as well as with any other communities.

We normally think if someone cannot see, they cannot take photos, nor they will enjoy taking photos - and we are wrong. A project Jing Li and her team dedicated to has proved that people have visual impairment not only can take photos, they often leave people in awe. Li and her team has taken this project forward, by inviting normal people to take this experience, to bring forward empathy in those people towards people with visual impairment.
