“Hello darkness, my old friend”
We live in a society of the sighted. From "goodbye" to "false alarm" to "love at first sight," our language is full of metaphors of sight. Knowledge and reason are associated with light and sight, while immaturity and unreason are associated with images of blindness and darkness. The world of blindness is unknown to most of us; our lives are built on sight. But what happens when this prerequisite is not met: In what space do blind or visually impaired people exist? What does time mean to them? What do sounds and noises tell us? Can we see with our ears?
