Interessante experience que je qualifierais de cartographie critique : une animation permet aux spectateurx de percevoir en actes les sens animaliers...
"A virtual reality exhibit is giving visitors the extreme ranges of sight and hearing that many animals have.
The so-called 'immersive' exhibit shows what it might be like to see with birds' ultraviolet vision or hear with whales' ultra-low frequency hearing.
The researchers say the project aims to demonstrate for the public all the sensing ranges animals experience that are described in scientific literature.
The exhibit is on display at the annual Siggraph conference in New Orleans, US.
The light that humans can see and sounds they can hear are just a small sliver of the total range of those experienced by animals.
Many creatures can both make and perceive sounds at higher and lower ranges than we can hear - dogs' perception of ultrasound is a well-known example.
Several animal species are known to be able to perceive light at extreme ranges; birds can see ultraviolet light and their plumage is often highly reflective in this range."
