Imagine holding the planets of the solar system in your hands, touching the surface of the moon with the tip of your fingers or being so close to the sun that you can hear it. This and much more is part of the exhibition 'STROM - Inclusive Astronomy', produced for Passion for Knowledge festival by the DIPC in collaboration with Tabakalera, open to the public from 4 to 31 October on the third floor of Tabakalera.
Through interactive and multisensory experiences, the public will be able to understand basic concepts of astronomy and learn about frontier research in the field of astrophysics being carried out in the Basque Country.
One of the main goals of this exhibition is to ensure access for people with disabilities, especially the visually and hearing impaired communities and people with reduced mobility. For this purpose, tactile guides have been installed on the floor, tactile information panels with accessible text sizes, QRs with access to audio guides, audiovisuals with sign-guides, subtitling and magnetic loop, all in an exhibition space without physical barriers.
