So asks Lynsey Robinson, who works for the Sensory Trust, which is based in the Eden Project, Cornwall.

Lynsey recently found that the hearing-impaired could enjoy a music concert if given an inflated balloon to hold. The balloon amplified the vibrations and allowed the person to experience the concert in a new way.

So her question is: can we think of other imaginative ways for those with poor hearing to get more out of music and sound?

Answers on the back of a postcard in the comments, if you please.

Nod to Ruth Wilson, who also posted about this in the Women in Science forum.
