This is a blog to record my thesis experience in the GD MFA program at the Maryland Institute College of Art. I am interested in tactile design and relating typography to braille.

Hi. How did your thesis project turn out? It is such a wonderful concept I just hope the reality came together. Did you get good audience participation and feedback?
I have just started an MFA program at Edinburgh College of Art and am exploring tactile typography. How words and short phrases and their meanings can be altered by what they feel like to the touch. I want to encourage the audience to interact with words and art using their sense of touch as well as their eyes. I am at the very early stages. I would welcome the chance to talk to you about what you discovered during your program.
Kindest regards, Kate
