Sensory Stadium is targeted towards people with sensory processing issues.

This allows people who can't go to performances to have a safe experience at the Sensory Stadium.

The idea behind the Sensory Stadium is to bring people with sensory processing issues together through a new experience of music.

The Sensory Stadium is specifically designed towards anyone with sensory issues, making people who usually wouldn't be able to have a concert experience have an experience of music customized to their type of SPD (sensory processing disorder).

This article gave us a lot of information about different types of SPD and the types needs and triggers.

 We used the different types of SPD to create our venue. This research was very helpful for us to figure out what types we could accommodate and how. This affected our venue a lot by giving us information to make different types of SPD in different bubbles because many different people react to music and stimulation differently, because of that we made 3 different bubbles that the viewer can sit in while having each bubble be safe for types of SPD making the experience for everyone.

Conceptual precedent- music playing for kids with sensory issues

technical precedent- dining bubble for covid

prototype

The audience member can view a performance inside a bubble designed for their specific type of SPD.

Next steps

If we could continue this project and edit it we would probably make more than 3 bubbles so there could be more specific types to come, and we would also work on researching more to make the bubbles' interior even more specific to each type of SPD.
