“Touchable Memories is a meaningful social experiment conducted by Pirate3D which converts #photographs into 3D replicates with the use of a home printer called Buccaneer. In this way, the blind are able to recall via touch their old memories from photographs taken when they could still see. Even if they have lost their sight since birth, the tactile experience with the 3D re-interpretation of the #photo taken allows them to visualize more vividly the memories that were shot. As one of them puts it, ‘If I can touch the #photograph, I can make the memory tangible again.” cc: designboom, Lost At E Minor
