The sentence “Du mußt dein Leben ändern” (“You must change your life”) appears on screen written in the Braille system. Referencing the book by cotemporary German philosopher Peter Sloterdijk, “ON COLOR II: BLIND SPOTTING” questions Sloterdijk’s call to change oneself, rather than the world. Oscillating colors contrast in an attempt to translate a message that remains untouchable to the blind, and undecipherable to the sighted.
