#2 Editorial & Contents: Multisensory experiences and scenographic thinking

Dear readers,

We are happy to present #2 of Scenography Journal, this time with a broad focus on multisensory experiences in exhibitions and on stage, and scenographic thinking as a mindset to embrace atmospheric and sensorial aspects of art and life. Themes this time illustrated by the contradictory and tactile silver bowls by Niklas Ejve, where the roughness of metal meets soft silk. Vibrant and silky "fur" lines the metal bowls and brings out an unstoppable desire to touch the objects - this is sensory design at play.

Issue #2 features reviews, information on new research, a Call for Paper, as well as scenography memories and events.

Enjoy!

Warmest wishes,

Viveka Kjellmer, Multisensory communication & costume editor
