Touch Art:
"...Touch reaches in man the maximum of discriminative accuracy.
While in respect of all the other senses we fall below many
species of animals, in respect of touch we far excel all other
species in exactness of discrimination.
That is why man is the most intelligent of all animals. This is confirmed by the fact that it is to differences in the organ of touch and to nothing else that the differences between man and man in respect of natural endowment are due; men whose flesh is hard are ill-endowed by nature, men whose flesh is soft, wellendowed. "
Aristotle.
On the Soul. Book 2, part 9, (421a 20-25)
