Abstract
The author has participated in the exhibition at the Children’s center of media and play. They featured on expanding the borders of traditional play by using digital media. By applying the same technique, they made it possible to experience the world of autistic people. Not only was it a very good chance for neurotypical to understand the sense of autism, but it also opened up a new directional thinking. By studying the possibilities of autistic senses, there may be a potential of progression in various fields such as art and science.
The current status of human enhancement is to group minority people into the living basis of neurotypicals. We tend to start at the neurotypical basis. And try to grow from there. The author would like to suggest a new direction in human enhancement, by recognizing the characteristics of autistic senses and expand in their world views. By creating a new branch in the direction of human enhancement, it will make it possible for various being to compromise to exist together.
