Description

In this inaugural episode of Re-routing the City host India Block is joined by Tim Fendley and Kate Jeffery to discuss the science behind our sense of direction. From discussion as to whether rats and humans share a universal internal compass to the study of yellow as a naturally understood warning colour, the conversation moves in multiple directions to ask: can design help our brains move more smoothly through busy spaces?
