Research Abstract |
This research revealed from the philosophical and aesthetic point of view the historical formation of the five senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. Analyzing both the universal aspect and the local and cultural aspect of their order and hierarchy, it suggested an aesthetic solution for such urgent problems in the fields of ergonomics, human interface or virtual reality as the balance and the priority of five senses.
