About the podcast interview: 

Melbourne-based artist and researcher Dr Erica Tandori uses her love of art, her lived experience with low vision and her work at Monash University to focus on communicating science through art for people who are blind or have low vision.

Dr Stuart Favilla’s research activities have covered a diverse range of design related fields including STEM education for blind and low vision communities and is an innovator in the area of spatial sound and immersive audio.

The duo are encouraging the blind and low vision community to join them in exploring the science of autoimmunity from leading scientists through interactive multisensory artworks and displays, and to prepare for an enhanced experience with interactive multi-sensory science books and captivating sonifications where data is turned into a musical language.
