Sense Deprivation - Clint Stevens

At the Ephraim Pioneer Graveyard I blindfolded myself, listened to white noise and wandered around for twenty minutes. It was very bizzare not knowing where I was going, randomly running into gravestones, fences and trees. It was sunny and I could feel the warmth on me, which gave me some sense of direction, but when my timer went off and i removed the blindfold, I was no where near where I thought I was. After the first ten minutes I started to notice touch more, I could feel every weed that grazed my leg, every rock I stepped on, my clothes rubbing on my skin. It was a strange experience.

I recorded the sounds during this experiment. mostly just sounds of me walking around, and bumping into objects, I did start to offer some commentary about halfway through. Except I'm unable to upload.

My Starting point.

Where I was when my timer went off.

A couple photo's I took while walking back to my car.
