The Darkroom

Sight does not live in any eye.

Insight can dawn on every mind.

75 minutes in complete darkness is too short to truly understand what it means to live without vision but the experience shall be memorable long enough. I do not intend to stir up too much hype here, but the exhibition at Dialogue in the Dark is definitely worth trying.

Here is what you can expect:

Total darkness - you can try put your hand right in front of your face and you won't be able to see a thing, but you'd feel it. I gave up trying to 'see' what is around me after 5 minutes, for most of the time, I closed my eyes and opened my long lost sensory.

Insecurity - For most of the time, you'd be following the walls as you walk in the dark but once you're in the middle of no where, you can feel rather helpless. But don't worry, the exhibition is a totally protected environment sealed from the outside evil.

Spatial awareness - For some reason, you won't bump into each other that often. There is something that tells you there is someone next to you, or in front of you. You're more aware of the distance between others.

Fun - You would love the experience and want more. No doubt about it.
