BLIND SPOT is an international art project, inviting blind and sighted people for participation. Blind residents are guiding video artists through their own city. They are detailing their personal bearing on this city, incidents of the past, stories associated with certain spots and things that can´t or don´t want to be seen by others. The participating video artists are trying to interpret these stories in a visual and acoustic way, and so uncover the city experiences of blind people. Thus, there are appearing very distinct ways of seeing places and facetes of the city life.

At the same time, BLIND SPOT is a series of portraits, showing how people without eyesight find their ways in this world and how they deal with their environment and their sensual detraction.
After the book „Botschaft Linz“ and the documentary film „Trivial Europe“ , BLIND SPOT is the third part of a project run of DIE FABRIKANTEN about special places.
