Deprive
Remove the whole channel, not some of it; keep it gone until the other senses have reorganised.
Blind tasting: the same wine, a different verdict.
Seen in Derek Jarman, Blue, 1993
Try it on your work
Do one familiar task with a working sense or dominant hand deliberately out of use: eyes closed, off-hand only, in silence. The workaround you invented is a capacity you own; it was invisible under abundance.
Hold one full conversation, or write one full page, without the crutch word or phrase you lean on most. What you said instead is your actual vocabulary; the crutch was covering for it.
Run one cycle with a resource halved on purpose: half the time, half the inputs, half the tools. What got protected under scarcity is the true priority order; file it next to the official one.
How it has been used
Remove one sensory channel entirely: the blindfolded tasting, the silent film, the phone call with no faces. The remaining channels reorganise to carry the load. The move forbids partial removal: dimming isn't depriving, and the reorganisation only happens when the channel is actually gone.
