《看见看不见的世界》内容简介

　　关于“看”的颠覆之作，关于身体多元化的崭新领悟！

　　人类有八至九成的信息通过视觉获取。渐渐地，我们以为用眼睛看到的就是世界的全貌。

　　看不见的人，是感知“世界的另一种样子”的专家。他们用手阅读，用耳朵眺望，把脚当做探照灯；还能通过语言借他人之眼，用幽默态度翻转种种“不便”。

　　东京工业大学教授伊藤亚纱经过与视障人士的长期相处，从空间、感觉、运动、语言和幽默五大主题，带领我们一起走进“看不见”的世界。在那里，当视觉消失，身体生长出意想不到的崭新可能。就好比这世界上有四只脚的椅子，也有三只脚的椅子，二者有着各自的平衡。这本书想去关注的，不是四只脚的椅子少了一只脚的“欠缺”，而是原本就由三只脚创造出的“完整”。

　　我们已经迎来身体多元化的时代，认识他们的世界，同时意味着认识自身的更多可能。

See the Unseen World

Subversive work on "look", a new understanding of body diversity!

80 to 90 percent of the information we get is visual. Gradually we come to think that we see the whole world with our eyes.

The invisible man is an expert at perceiving "the world as it is." They read with their hands, see with their ears, and use their feet as searchlights; Can also use the eyes of others through language, with a humorous attitude to turn all kinds of "inconvenience".

Yasa ITO, a professor at Tokyo Institute of Technology, has been working with visually impaired people for a long time, leading us into the "invisible" world from five themes: space, sensation, movement, language and humor. There, when sight disappears, the body opens up new and unexpected possibilities. Just as there are four-legged chairs in the world, there are three-legged chairs, and the two have their own balance. What this book wants to focus on is not the "lack" of a four-legged chair with one foot missing, but the "completeness" created by three feet.

We have ushered in the age of physical diversity, understanding their world, but also means knowing more about their own possibilities.

About the author

ITOASA

Scholars, writers. He was born in Tokyo in 1979.

PhD, University of Tokyo, Professor, Institute of Liberal Arts Studies and Education (ILA), Tokyo Institute of Technology, Visiting Researcher, MIT. His research interests include aesthetics and modern art. His most famous work is "Seeing the Invisible World".

When I was young, I was determined to become a biologist, but because I was dissatisfied with the division of biology education in the university, it failed to show a macro vision of life, so I changed from reason to literature in my junior year. At the intersection of aesthetics and biology, we should step out of our own "body" research road.
