“That's why it makes me uncomfortable. It’s not because I'm not comfortable with it, it's because it makes other people uncomfortable with disability.”
Consisting of a pair of walking canes vibrating with the audio of a collaborative ethnographic conversation, this work explores the complexities of navigating social spaces as a young person utilizing a mobility aid. In February of 2024, Stoner and a disabled friend took a walk with their mobility aids and discussed the vulnerable realities of moving through workplaces, medical settings and social settings while using a walking cane. The binaural audio of this conversation, along with contact recordings of both canes, vibrates through them in conversation with one another.
