#09 Notes on Blindness VR review — what it’s like to be blind?

Notes on Blindness is a perfect example of what is only achievable in VR. Why may you ask? Watching a movie on a 2D screen, you get all this distraction that surrounds the monitor which is your environment. In VR you become blind yourself while navigating through the 360 degrees environment and it’s made incredibly realistically.

Notes on Blindness VR review by topvrmovies

When I finished watching it honestly, I was speechless for some time and could not think of anything other than ‘How I don’t want to lose my sight. It’s very heart touching.

This is not some made up story. The story is based on real person John Hull life experience who was blind. John spent a lot of time writing about how he saw the world around him through sound. I could never have imagined that being blind can be both blissful and terrifying.

It shows you how John was able to see in the park, on a windy or rainy day and how blind he was when it was snowing. It’s something I never even imagined before that it’s possible to see the world this way. The experience will let you immerse yourself into John shoes.

The spatial sound is very well polished; the modelings are straightforward and easy to recognize, the story flows perfectly, with Gear VR you get to interact by creating the wind which plays a critical role in navigating yourself in the world. Technically it could not be polished more.

It’s worth 10 out of 10 stars for its deep story and highly polished VR experience. The directors Peter Middleton and James Spinney created a powerful VR experience that everyone should give it a go.
