I would most benefit from the interactive symposium as it is the focus of my work as an artist and a paraplegic. Interactive art offers incredible possibilities to the senses and, as an evolutionary adaptation, it will no doubt be embedded into the lives of all in some way. The technology offers a seventh sense for creative exploration, in my case with the development of phenomena and the experience of Senses I no longer have in use. The situation of paraplegia becomes a host to unending possibilities when explored through interactivity.

Without relying or suggesting the use of high-end big dollar tech, the adaptation of simple interactive devices opens a new area of sensual exploration. I would benefit greatly from the subjects explored in the symposium to get a grip on the possibilities.
