#auti-sim

idk actually, i just know it's called auti-sim and i thought it was funny to put it as my title. oh yeah it's also meant to highlight overstimulation and sensory problems, not the ENTIRE autism spectrum.

This is a website with different links to videos of what we class as 'usual' day-to-day activities but through the eyes of a person with autism. They are all very simple but effective in providing the users with an experience as opposed to simple telling them about autism. This is the reasoning behind my design - experience design is soooo much more effective than a child getting talked at in class and expected to understand. Autism is a difficult disorder to understand, especially for children, so letting them experience some of the symptoms seen across the spectrum would allow them to actually understand much more easily what their classmates with autism go through and why they may act a little differently

- 体感って、どうやって自閉症の子供の感覚をヒアリングしたのだろう？大人の自閉症の人（という表現が適切なのかわからないけど）からかな？いずれにせよ、この世界観が１００％正しいとはなんとなく思えませんが、そうした子供の疑似体験ができるのは、今までにない発想の具現化といえるでしょう。 (via カラパイア)
