In the search of alternative views of a city we came to the conclusion that very often we perceive it only visually, giving primacy to the sense of sight in this experience. This participatory project aims to show a view of the city by a visually impared person and convey this experience to people who are able to see. A sound installation is composed of soundscape of the city of Rijeka where a blind narrator tells his view of it. Parallel to the installation, visitors were able to participate and experience a guided route downtown, blindfolded, listening to audio tracks telling how a blind person experiences the city and then following its lead.
Project is a part of City at a Second Glance—a travelling interdisciplinary research-educational project.
