My final Idea is to represent all the 5 senses in another way, either through video animation photography or installation.

For the taste sense my idea is to take videos of people eating horrible and disgusting things. This shows that the taste buds can be your friend or your foe.

The smell tense i am going to use "smell gels". Smell gells are gel pens where the ink smells inside the pen, so once you write with for example a red pen then they could smell maybe strawberries or raspberries. My idea is to squeeze all the ink from the pen cartridges and put them into viles or test tubes where the audience can open and sniff the different tubes and try and guess the smells.

Sight tense, for the sight tense i am going to use a video and after effects to mask a pair of glasses onto the screen and all of the image inside the glasses are blurred and the video outside the glasses is still in focus, reversing the ability of the glasses.

For hearing i am going to have a set of headphones with a songs sound wave passing through the headphones and have the sound waves move through headphones.

i am still a little unsure with the touch sense, whether to do another installation like the smell sense or to do a photograph of someone cowering away from  something that they are reaching our for.
