How does someone who is congenitally blind experience the world? Spatial imagery, I claimed yesterday, is one way to go. But what about something purely visual, like color? Luckily we have testimony of the best kind, uninhibited, funny, explanatory. Made me feel grateful for the perceptual experiences I am still able to have.

For color today I picked photographs from the Fairchild Botanical Garden near Miami, FL. Chihuli’s glass creations had transformed an already magical place into something otherworldly when I visited 2 years ago.
