How do you feel as you move through a busy space — like an airport, a city street or a crowded shopping centre?
For some of us, these spaces are energising — being among the rush of people and the noise of the crowds. But for others, these situations can be a little much.
And for some neurodivergent people — especially those with sensory issues — being in these public spaces can be utterly overwhelming, even harmful. That's a problem when you want or need to use them just like everybody else.
Today, audio engineer and producer Amelia Geiss takes you inside their mind — for a first-hand perspective of what it's like to move through public spaces as someone with sound sensitivities.
We'll hear about how these sensitivities manifest in the brain — strategies for managing them — and building public spaces that are accessible for everyone.
