[Artbeyondsightmuseums] Launch of two photo books on blind photographers from Blind With Camera

[partho bhowmick]

Hello Friends


I take great pleasure to introduce to you two books written by me.



First book, *See As No Other* is a collection of over 100 photographs from
the Blind With Camera Mumbai, India and some of the more accomplished blind
photographers in the world. The book provide compelling insights into the
creative process; how another sense “fills in” for sight lost and how the
camera serves as the new “eye” of the visually impaired. The book
celebrates human diversity, gives a new voice to the visually impaired, and
explores what sight and seeing is really all about. The Foreword is written
by Douglas McCulloh and the Afterword by Dr. Simon Hayhoe. Published by
Partridge Publishing, a Penguin Random House Company.  The book is
available worldwide in print, e-book and audio DAISY formats.

Second book, *In Touch With Pictures* is an unique sensory coffee table
photo book that offers a combination of adaptive ways−such as touch & feel
raised pictures, audio description, large prints and Braille−to provide a
holistic experience for visually impaired readers while offering a whole
new experience for the sighted reader as well. This inclusiveness of
photographs in the book redefines the common notion “to see is to
photograph, and to photograph  is to see”. The book is published by the
Beyond Sight Foundation, Mumbai India.
