Team 5enses <3

My home is my resting place, which I perceive as a worm “shelter” which I am glad to reach especially during the cold and winter days. The way along the river is like my morning rainbow, my day can literally change when I choose to bike there instead of along the street. The compass represents the times I felt lost and I found my self again. 

We are onto the next step in our project, distilling senses and symbols. Adding some structure to the abstract (;

Hello everyone! We hope everyone is energised post the carnival break hangover. As our project is quite abstract, we would like to give you a behind-the-scene glimpse of how things work at team 5enses. To begin with the process of creating a visual symbolic language depicting exploration of senses, we first started to sensorially explore the world around us and in our memories. Our client was satisfied with our explorations and urged us to communicate about these with each other, to understand - Does everyone perceive things the same way that you do?

When I did the blindfold walk it was a little bit scary as it sounds. But I enjoyed the entire experience. I was able to make out the landmarks around me because of their aroma ( for example the sweets shops and the food places) and other attributes like hot air coming through the shops (as it was winter and some shops had heightened heating). Overall it was an eye opener and a fun activity.

1 - We tried to synthesize peculiar aspects of simple sensorial experiences, like drinking a glass of water or walking in the wind into a symbolic language. Sometimes we can’t help but experience something, like the sun or the wind, we can’t block all of our senses. We can close our eyes and block the light to our sight but we can still fill the warmth of the sun on our skin. It is like the sensations are actively having an effect on us. For other experiences, we play a more active role, like when we touch, drink or eat something. It starts when we decide. 2 - A visual representation of different places drawn from memory through the lens of the senses.
