Project Dial is an interactive experiment by Thibault Magni, focused on creating a link between the deaf community and the rest of the population. “With an awareness-raising approach, the goal is not to introduce people to sign language but make them feel the articulation and issues of it. The project is an interactive installation reacting in real time to the user’s hands, allowing the writing of a sound and light sentence through its movements.”
