Arha Conferences

             I was there at the ARHA conference on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday of last week.I was there at the presentation on Wednesday morning discussing the talk's open ceremony.The discussion lasts for approximately an hour, and I find it intriguing since I learned about a statement that I had never considered before.I learned from the discussion that there are a few things I should be aware of, such as doing it cautiously, creating a place of care, placing martial ecologies, creating informal utopias, and creating care rhythms.The expression "carefully does it" means that we must practice creating and completing our projects slowly. Additionally, the term "space of care" refers to locations for health and wellbeing. Furthermore, I am aware that the situated martial ecologies include accommodating the fallout from power during periods of calm. Furthermore, the term "informal utopias" refers to the dispossessed and the dislocated: from nowhere to unplanned utopias. Finally, we discovered the significance of cave rhythms, which represent the rights of construction and land to the city as well as movement and duration.

          After the opening ceremony,Caroline Vasilikou of Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom gave this speech. Initially, our lecturer presents the central idea of the sensory design.It is necessary to communicate the complex idea of sensory design to everyone. The professor demonstrated several student-completed tasks for us to see, such mapping one's own emotions to produce creative works of art. First, the student writes their feelings on sticky notes and then pastes them in the appropriate sections—sense, feeling, touch, and thought—into each one.She then gave us some more student examples, asking them to record their feelings when they are in different spaces and to see themselves in small spaces in order to create a spatial layout.Through these exercises, students are improving their communication, analytical, leadership, collaboration, and creative thinking skills.

Diagram 02 and Diagrams 03 illustrates Caroline Vasilikou shows us the activities that done by her students.

          Additionally, the student must draw an empathy map that includes the words "say," "think," "do" (observed), and "feel" (infer). To complete the assignment that the lecturer has given them, they must employ these keywords.Luptons and Lipss agrue that sensory design usually serves as a manifesto for the use of several senses in design that is inclusive. Touch, sound, smell, taste, and the body's knowledge are all activated by sensory design.Despite of one's sensory knowledge, sensory design enhances everyone's ability to learn, explore the environment, and feel joy, wonder, and social relationships.

At the end of the day, I think the discussion was outstanding as I learned a lot of stuff that I wasn't able to learn in class.
