Overview

Ever more technologies are being created to sense our environment, and much is being learned about how animals and plants sense theirs. We often think of these tools as extending our capacity for sensing what is not available through natural human perception. But what is “natural” about human perception? Not as much as was once believed, it turns out. Many of the contributors to LA+ SENSE consider how our senses have become naturalised, and our bodies and experiences standardised. Topics also include sense and surveillance, sense of place, and whether we can even trust our senses.
